Senator Malcolm Roberts

Senator for Queensland

Malcolm was first elected to the Senate in 2016, returned in 2019, and re-elected in 2025. His commitment to freedom, responsibility and service continues to guide his work as a Senator for Queensland.

Malcolm spent his early years in India before his family moved to the bush in Central Queensland. He has also lived in the Hunter Valley (NSW) and worked and travelled widely across America and Canada before returning to Australia.

With a background in engineering, mining, and business leadership, Malcolm has extensive experience and success in the corporate sector and as a business owner. Following his engineering degree from the University of Queensland, Malcolm spent three years as an underground coalface miner. He led the operational development of Australia’s largest and most complex underground coal project and successfully set many industry firsts.

In the 1990s, Malcolm gained a master’s degree in business administration (MBA) from the University of Chicago’s Graduate School of Business, one of the world’s most respected universities for finance and economics. He then went on to establish an executive consultancy specialising in leadership and management services for Australian and international clients.

Australia’s capacity to embrace its riches and talent has been slowly eroded over time by Nation-killing foreign globalist interests that have taken hold of the reins. His disappointment with politicians who refuse to listen, refuse to face the facts and lack care for our country, is what led to his decision to join Pauline Hanson in standing for the Senate.

Malcolm is committed to optimising our productive capacity by removing excessive government intervention and halting the slow march towards the centralist approach that undermines our ability to take responsibility and have freedom in our lives.

His work as a senator has also provided greater clarity about the taxation system, the climate crisis and what is driving it, and the plight of Australians during the COVID response. He was among the first to speak out about the United Nations and its WHO power grab that is threatening Australia’s sovereignty.

Malcolm’s integrity and strength-of-character have helped him turn around businesses in his role as a leader and guided him in his role supporting leaders as an adviser, guide and mentor. With his keen interest in economics and passion for climate change data and facts, Malcolm’s investigations into the so-called ‘climate crisis’ have earned him the respect of informed people around the world. His analyses of the measured data and subsequent exposure of the corruption has led to a deep understanding of the foreign interests involved in destroying Australia.

Combining a practical and analytical approach with a deep respect for people and an understanding of history’s bigger picture makes Malcolm an ideal candidate for working with all people to bring back the Australia that was once known as ‘the lucky country’.


A long‑standing advocate for improved patient access to medical cannabis, Malcolm has consistently championed reforms to make natural, whole‑plant medicinal cannabis affordable and widely available under prescription. He criticises the current regulatory framework for keeping prices artificially high and limiting access, arguing that millions of Australians could benefit from more practical, patient‑centred policy settings.

His legislative efforts, including introducing the Improving Access to Medicinal Cannabis Bill 2023, aim to broaden prescribing rights, downregulate low‑THC products, and reduce pharmaceutical industry influence over cannabis regulation.
