Welcome

It is my great privilege to represent the people of Monash in the Parliament of Australia. Our local area is a great place to live, work and raise a family and I work to ensure it continues to be an even better place for us all.

In addition to serving our Monash community, I am a vocal advocate for a just and compassionate society with a focus on: a fair and sustainable NDIS, care and dignity for our elders and their carers, respect for women, flexibility and support for small businesses and the humane treatment of refugees.

Keeping in touch with your views and opinions helps me to represent you and I encourage your regular feedback. Please take the time to complete my survey and you can also subscribe to my mailing list to receive regular updates.

Warm regards,
Meet Russell

Last year, I spoke with human rights lawyer Peter Fam about the No Jab No Pay, No Jab No Play laws.

Peter rightly asks how can the Human Rights Commission justify the legality of the NJNP when it’s impossible for a parent to give free, full and informed consent when they’re under pressure or financial duress.

I’ll be writing to the Australian Human Rights Commission with this exact question. ... See MoreSee Less

The Australian Immunisation Handbook also stipulates the injecting practioner cannot proceed if they are aware the patient is being pressured or coerced.

Every system this government has in place is a complete waste of money for tax payers they’ll never side on the people for anything. We live in the most communist place around just looks like we don’t

Thank you for acting in our best interests.

One of the greatest things that happened to my family was that we were born and raised in this great south land. To celebrate Australia Day and our national flag, I have a limited number of FREE ‘Proud Australian’ stickers to give away. If you are a Monash resident you can get yours by: 1. Dropping by my office in Warragul and collecting one in person. 2: Send me a message with your postal address, and I’ll mail it to you! #ProudAustralian #ProudOfOurFlag #ProudOfOurNation

Proud Australian

Russell Broadbent MP 355 views 17 January, 2025 2:26 pm

During the 20th century women fought hard to secure fundamental rights and freedoms including the vote. But it seems there is a new battle being fought – a fight to protect women-only spaces. These spaces play a vital role in ensuring the privacy, security, and safety of women. The recent Tickle v. Giggle case has brought this issue into sharp focus. This case involved a legal challenge to the exclusion of males from the women-only social media platform Giggle. The women lost. At the heart of this case is Australia’s Sex Discrimination Act 1984, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex, gender identity, and sexual orientation. But the Act also recognises the need for single-sex spaces. For example, Section 33 protects women-only spaces or services, such as shelters, changing rooms, bathrooms, toilets, and women’s sport. These provisions exist to protect privacy, safety, and equality for women. The law recognizes that these exemptions are important for safeguarding hard fought for women's rights. And yet the court’s decision failed to uphold this. Failing to protect women’s spaces could have far-reaching, adverse consequences. Without clear boundaries, we risk undermining the primary purpose of these spaces—to provide women with environments where they feel safe, protected and respected. This is particularly crucial for women who have experienced violence, harassment, or trauma. If these spaces are eroded or made less secure, women may be left vulnerable and deprived of access to services, support, and safety. As highlighted in the case, women’s spaces also include social and community spaces online. Erosion of women’s online spaces discourages women from fully engaging in their social networks and communities and significantly compromises their safety and wellbeing. This is a huge step backwards for women’s rights. The Tickle v. Giggle case reminds us that while inclusivity is important, it cannot come at the expense of women’s rights. We must strike a balance that respects all individuals while preserving the integrity of spaces that have been designed specifically for women. And that’s justice, as I see it.

If recent events overseas and domestic in-fighting here ahead of the federal election are anything to go by, it seems 2025 is likely to be very challenging. In the face of any adversity I encourage you to stay resilient, strong and united. Take control of what you can – for instance, our forests are tinder dry, so do whatever fire prevention you can around your home.

Challenging Year Ahead

I still get calls from people sharing the most heartbreaking stories of unbearable trauma and suffering due to vaccine injury. And last Friday’s call from a husband whose family’s life has been destroyed due to his wife’s severe life-changing injuries is no exception. Doctors refusing to acknowledge the link and an overwhelming sense of desperate hopelessness is exacerbating their desperate plight. But people like Meryl Dorey have been sounding the alarm about the existence of vaccine side effects for decades. Please take a moment to listen to her story.
