“The people of Australia mourn for you” – Katter’s condolences
January 20, 2026
KENNEDY MP, Bob Katter extended his support to the Jewish community in Australia during a condolence motion in Parliament House today. The murder of so many innocent, everyday Australians, including the youngest - ten-year-old ‘Matilda’ – MUST be condemned at the highest level.
Mr Katter said, “This wonderful little kid was murdered.
“This lovely little girl called Matilda, whose parents had migrated to Australia and name their first child born in this country ‘Matilda’ as a tribute. My heart bleeds for them. This innocent little girl was shot dead by Islamic Extremists.
“These murders were ‘known’ by the authorities, yet they were allowed to stay here and fester with their extreme beliefs, they were allowed to obtain weapons, they were allowed to travel overseas and return after ‘training’, and they ended up carrying out a horrific act of terrorism. There was a clear failure of the immigration authorities, ASIO, and the NSW Labor Government – firearm licensing. I’ll bet they don’t miss a night’s sleep over it.”
In paying homage to the victims of the Bondi massacre, Mr Katter extended his support on behalf of the Australian people, but slammed the bodies responsible.
“The people of Australia, they mourn for you,” he said.
“Who was responsible for that murder, a couple of rabid bloody lunatics. We have got mad dogs everywhere, but the question must be who let those mad dogs into the country?
“The first person that is guilty is the immigration department, and the Minister Tony Burke has to take responsibility for what occurred, which he has not done.
“Secondly, ASIO had them on the watchlist and yet they were still allowed to collect three high powered rifles that are registered. What is the point in having an ASIO if you allow these people to have high powered rifles? This is a gang that couldn’t shoot straight. They are an absolute disgrace to the government.
“Thirdly, the NSW government. The Liberal government when in power, refused to give this person on an ASIO watch list, a gun licence. Within months of the Labor party taking office, he gets his firearms licence and he gets three guns.
“What, does he belong to the western Sydney clay shooting club does he? What… does he go shooting deer on the outskirts of Sydney does he? What could he possibly want the guns for?
“So, the NSW government can take full responsibility for what has occurred. And my message to them is, don’t hide because YOU are responsible.”
Mr Katter lashed unvetted mass immigration but cautioned that it wasn’t the “religion” to blame.
“I must say that it isn’t the Islamic “religion”. Our neighbours the Indonesians are a Muslim country and they are excellent people.
“The rabid mad dogs that have been allowed into this country have been from the Middle East and north Africa.
“There are four wars going on there at last count. They are either killing each other or killing other people.
“They attacked kids having a good time at a music festival and then they pulled the same stunt here in Australia. I spit upon them. And the people responsible for bringing them into this country have not been yarded and they need to be yarded.”

Radicalisation is happening NOW in Australia. If the alleged terrorist was radicalised in Australia… The threat is frankly, not only at our doorstep, it’s in our house! If this is not a warning shot that government needs to better protect our borders than what will be? For too long our government has allowed hatred and extremism to persist... branding anyone that speaks against such groups as ‘racist’ and ‘far right’. Australia should be a land of hope not hate... a land of opportunity… freedom … and fun. Government immediately stop allowing extremism under the guise of multiculturalism. Stop allowing those that hate our society and our way of life to live on our shores. Instead welcome those who value our cultures and beliefs.

Mabel - A travelling irrigator like no other to soak the parched, rich black soil plains of the mid-west. Bob has a dream for untold economic wealth and prosperity... with dams, roads, rail, ports to facilitate huge agricultural, mining and processing growth. Bob met with the lads at JAM (Johnstone Agricultural Machinery) to share this dream and discuss his plans for ‘Mabel’ the travelling irrigator!

Mythical ‘tribal’ groups own millions of hectares across Australia. Sure these groups earn millions in administration, houses and limited community facilities are built, but no individual title deeds are ever available. Not one single First Australian can own their own house on community lands. They can’t renovate or improve with pride, they can’t start a business, they can’t use the equity in their house as collateral… they have absolutely no means to improve their families finances unless they leave the region they call home. Successive governments keep throwing money at these communities but they will not remove the economic handcuffs that would allow businesses to grow, and homes and businesses to be built with pride through hard work and sacrifice.

AUSTRALIA NEEDS TO BETTER USE OUR GREAT MINERAL, AGRICULTURAL AND LAND WEALTH Australia is one of the wealthiest countries in the world. Our mineral resources are vast. Our agricultural potential is huge. We have millions of hectares of land unutilised or under-utilised. Australians should be swimming in wealth …. NOT drowning in debt. Successive governments have slowed our economy to a grinding halt in a ruthless pursuit of a WOKE agenda. A REVOLUTION is coming… Australians are starting to fight back against the corporate and political elite that have sold and squandered our great Nation. It’s about time that government starts governing for the betterment of Australians or GET OUT and let the independent fighters that TRUELY represent their electorates and Australia have a go!!!!
