I come here not as a polished politician but as a woman who has had her fair share of life's knocks.

Present governments are encouraging separatism in Australia by providing opportunities, land, moneys and facilities available only to Aboriginals.

My view on issues is based on common sense, and my experience as a mother of four children, as a sole parent, and as a businesswoman running a fish and chip shop.

We are regarded as a Third World country with First World living conditions.

I won the seat of Oxley largely on an issue that has resulted in me being called a racist. That issue related to my comment that Aboriginals received more benefits than non-Aboriginals.

Governments must give to all those who have hit life's hurdles the chance to rebuild and have a future.

The Government must do all it can to help reduce interest rates for business.
