Mr HAWKE (Mitchell) (09:35): It's a privilege to rise today to speak about some of the significant achievers in my electorate in the Australia Day honours. Australia Day, of course, is widely celebrated in Mitchell and in north-west and Western Sydney. Whether reflecting on Australia's history or marking our successes as a modern nation, it is a well-received and supported day.

Federal Member for Mitchell, the Hon Alex Hawke MP, is calling on Labor to stop ramming through their dodgy National Reconstruction Fund through the Parliament.
The Australian taxpayer will ultimately have to pay for Labor’s fiscally irresponsible and opaque $15 billion National Reconstruction Fund.

A great start to the day by attending the Thank you morning tea at Riding for the Disabled, Tall Timbers Centre at the Gables.
Kerry, Nicole and the team of volunteers go above and beyond, providing horse related programs enriching the lives of people with disabilities. The impact to participants benefits their self-esteem and enhances their abilities and is so vital in impacting their lives, their families and benefiting the wider community.

Like every other nations history, Australian history is both good and bad, and can be complex in its interpretation.
Every year the elitist ‘pile on’ on Australia and its culture gets louder and more demanding. As if hating on your country is a virtue. As if moving Australia Day from 26 January will address the ‘concerns’.
