As ever, the greatness of our country revealed itself not in the high places of power and privilege but in the hearts of our citizens. As always, we found inspiration in the character and courage of everyday Australians.

In 2019, all of us who have the remarkable privilege to serve in the federal parliament have a responsibility to do better, to rebuild faith in our democracy by demonstrating that politics can still make a positive difference to the daily lives of our fellow Australians.
This isn’t merely a matter of lifting the standard of our democracy, it’s about putting forward ideas and solutions to the challenges facing our people and our nation. Because, simply put, our whole country is a better, smarter, more prosperous place, when all our citizens have the opportunity to fulfil their potential.
