Nationals Senator Bridget McKenzie says the Labor government are showing a “callous disregard for road fatalities” by cutting funds to a mobile blackspot program targeting “high risk” areas known for accidents.

“The Labor government in their October budget ripped $69

million out of the program,” Ms McKenzie told Sky News Australia.

She looks zonked.Matches what she says I suppose.

The_Nationals would rather build girls toilets at hockey ovals and give money to their own gun clubs than build roads , right Bridget?

In 2017 Bridget’s LNP government cut $600 million from the Pacific Highway duplication showing a callous disregard for road fatalities. Auspol

Pity she didn’t take those sports rorts when in government to fix country roads

Road fatalities are at all time low. Not just the raw numbers but on a per capita basis, road deaths are less prevalent than 40 years ago. Liberal nationals just misinforming as usual.

Rorters gotta lie …Rorters gotta rort: Bridget McKenzie keeps telling porkies…!🐷

And of coarse all those ' black spots' appeared after 22 May 2022 didn't they Bridget.

LaborLies Roads, medicine, infrastructure, defence, legislation, etc.

I’d like to hear her views on Robodebt as a way to save money.

Details? Or do you just make this stuff up?

Not to forget the lack of maintenance of the roads all around the country.

2 old things , SKy & Bridget trying to remain relevant

Bridget McKenzie has proven herself as most callous liberal for 9 whole useless years while the liberal party filled up their bank accounts by doing absolutely nothing while in power. And now we have no revenues because they sold our best assets and roads full of holes .

Is that like the $600m sports rorts Or the other $600m car park rorts

Our top story. So-called Sky News reduced to daily Meghan bashing stories & reporting any half-arsed, baseless criticism by Coalition so-called politicians as a news story worthy of attention, after a decade of mind boggling incompetence & unprecedented corruption in government.

So let's not forget sports rorts. Loser.

Bridget looking anxious. How can I rort some more funds for the club? And Conmo isn’t around anymore!

All the spare cash has gone over to the Ukraine laundromat.

Wow one corner… the disregard is in supporting a Nazi regime in Ukr. Hundreds of millions given to ZeleNazkyy the war criminal

Bridget loves sausages.

What a load of BS , be productive for once in your life. ThisisNotJournalism

MurdochSewerageCo 🖕

What about all the cuts her fucken mob done while they wher ripping of us all for their own pockets AA

the Voice is their focus, forget anything else.

Comedy hour.

It’s another McKenzie Lie. Like the one about her Rorts not being Rorts.

Just like she showed a callous disregard for public funds. Seriously, she has zero credibility.

Oh c'mon, did Bridge divert money to Sports Rorts that could have been used for good causes - of course she did... 🙄

Need more of this you saying?

The care so much about our safety they mandated a myocarditis inducing vaccine.

What did her government do for regional Australian? Oh that’s right, nothing. Not a dam thing.

The Regions have shown a callous disregard for Australia by electing a useless rorter like Bridget.

And the minister says this is BS!

They didn’t cut anything, the last govt (hers) failed to allocate the funding and it’s unclear whether the unspent money has been rolled over ThisIsNotJournalism

Guys, you’re meant to have ‘parody’ in the title when you publish tweets like this. Otherwise people think you’re serious!😜

Talk about attack the messenger. Hope none of you hit a pothole and crack a wheel...then again...

Mckenzie showed a disregard and was a corrupt LNP Minister when they did the Sports Rorts and all their wastage of tax payers money, never on Aged Care or Homeless, or the elderly she is not fit to sit in Parliament, a dead parrot at best

Learn to live with it.

Fake news

You had 9 years to fix the roads and you didn’t Wrack off

Fixing the roads is Albos job. An Australian Ambassador's job is for Jon Philp to complete Albo's instructions so that the cost of the trip could be applied to roads, unless Albo wants to work instead of go on vacation

McKenzie, ask her about sports rorts first? Another who is unfit for parliament and should be in jail.

Why is McKenzie still in parliament. Is she waiting for ICAC?

Maybe if we build carparks where we don't need them it will fix the issue?

Does Rort-get ever actually do anything useful? MurdochPropaganda

No argument, you don't deserve parliament.

And again

10 years of nothing suddenly has a humane related concern. This is akin to Jack the ripper whinging sharp knives should be ban and women should not to be out at night

One evil human being.

Sky News: LNP media department.

Who?

Roads are in horrendous condition in Melbourne, some are downright dangerous on a motoribike

murdochwhoress MurdochGutterMedia

That wouldn't be the $120 million sports rorting Bridget McKenzie by any chance would it! LNPNeverAgain

which is only a small lie, compared to her usual ones, if indeed she did say this, cos, y'know, it's sky

She has no integrity. Just a corrupt politician

The gun toting and proven corrupt McKenzie has no idea at all of truth, and her deceitful crp is naturally attractive to the putrid Murdoch media. They, McKenzie and Sky, both lie profusely, so find themselves a perfect deceitful match.

Bridged McKenzie after your government being in power for a decade their shouldn’t be any black spots on our roads today .

Must have been another trough that she had her snout in.

In 2017 Bridget’s LNP government cut $600 from the Pacific Highway duplication showing a callous disregard for road fatalities.

Shotgun McKenzie, Australia’s answer to Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Labor doesn't care.

Cooker

Well, as a former minister of a callous, hateful former government she’d know

We she gave her GUN CLUB big time funding when the Libs were in power. Bad luck anyone with a pothole in the nearby town though.

The train is a cheaper safer alternative if you are worried about black spots.

Coming from the Sports Rorts Queen 😂 auspol

Go Go Bridget!

Ms corruption can talk lol.

The Minister for rorts

Didn’t they sandbag seats for that at every election in 9 years

Bridget McSportyRorty

Imagine if all that rort money McKenzie put aside had been spent on actual problems...hyperhypocrite

Fact check?

Why would Bridget care 🤦🏻

I think that the rego should be pulled for methadone users. Seen two wasted yesterday outside a clinic getting into an old car.

Im confused and lazy, can someone TL;DR this for me? Would a mobile blackspot mean you couldn't call for help if you did actually crash?
