Speeches
Address to the WA State Liberal Party Conference
Saturday, 24 July 2010
E&OE…
Federal President Alan Stockdale, Vice Presidents Danielle Blain and Tom Harley, President Barry Court, parliamentary colleagues and delegates, former Premier Richard Court, and I particularly acknowledge the Premier of our great state Colin Barnett.
Colin has so ably demonstrated how a Liberal Government can deliver strong economic management, turn a state’s fortunes around and provide competent leadership based on enduring Liberal values and beliefs that families should be at the heart of society and the hard work and individual initiative of enterprising Australians ought to be at the heart of the economy.Second Reading Speech - Autonomous Sanctions Bill 2010
Thursday, 24 June 2010
Ms JULIE BISHOP (Curtin) (5.31 pm)—I rise to speak in support of the Autonomous Sanctions Bill 2010, which, according to the government, is designed to:
… strengthen Australia’s autonomous sanctions regime by allowing greater flexibility in the range of measures Australia can implement, beyond those achievable under existing instruments, thus ensuring Australia’s autonomous sanctions can match the scope and extent of measures implemented by like-minded states.Matter of Public Importance - The failure of the Government to provide stable and competent government at a time of increased cost of living pressures for Australian households and families

Ms JULIE BISHOP (Curtin) (4.07 pm)—Today is a historic day, as many commentators will contend. This is a historic day as the backroom operators and the union heavyweights of the Labor Party have achieved their goal of taking control of the Labor Party and installing one of their own as the Prime Minister, a person who is now beholden to their interests. This was a day of betrayal and naked ambition, a day that an elected Australian Prime Minister was brutally assassinated before he was able to complete his first term in office.Matter of Public Importance - The failure of the Government to deliver its promises of the 2007 election.

Ms JULIE BISHOP (Curtin—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (5.03 pm)—Much has been published recently about the apparent psychoses that are lurking deep within the recesses of the Prime Minister’s mind. Indeed, it has become a national pastime to analyse the disturbingly complex and erratic behaviour of this Prime Minister: his temper tantrums over trivial inconveniences; his propensity to profanity in the most inappropriate circumstances, clearly designed to offend all in earshot; his deep-seated anger; and his thirst for revenge on those who might disagree with him.Shadow Ministerial Statement - Congo Air Crash

Ms JULIE BISHOP (Curtin—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (3.49 pm)—On indulgence, we in the coalition support the government’s efforts in this very difficult and complex task of retrieving bodies from this tragic event that occurred in Africa last weekend.More Articles...
