We spoke of why Australia needs a better way and how genuine Conservatives in the Senate can be a force for good. Here is The Brisbane Times' coverage of our speeches.

Many people think One Nation is a conservative party. However, its changing positions on tax policy and today's revelation that it is supporting euthanasia should put paid to that idea.

One Nation’s decision to side with Labor and popularist Senate cross-benchers to block the Government’s plan to reward effort through the tax system is disappointing for conservative Queenslanders.
