Thank you to all those people who have trusted me to represent this community in Canberra as part of an Albanese Labor Government.

This result reflects years of consistent work of the team who support me to serve the community. It also reflects real failures by the Morrison Government, including to look after people on the NDIS and in aged care, to protect Medicare, and to take real action on climate change.

I have no doubt that bringing about the many changes the Macquarie community expects and deserves is going to take time and hard work, and I am keen to get started so we can see change for the better in the next three years.

As people know, whether you voted for me or not, I take very seriously my responsibility to represent the interests of our community and
