It was a big call by Foreign Minister Julie Bishop. Prior to addressing the United Nations on Australia’s 2029 bid for a seat on the\u00a0Security Council, she told the media that young Wyatt Roy would be prime minister of Australia by then.<\/p>\n
“I don’t believe I will still be foreign minister at that time. I will leave that up to prime minister Wyatt Roy in 2029,” she said.<\/a><\/p>\n At 20, Roy was the youngest MP elected to the House of Representatives for the Queensland seat of Longman at the 2010 election. By\u00a0September 2015, he’d risen to Assistant Minister for Innovation after supporting current Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull<\/a> in the coup that overthrew Tony Abbott. <\/a><\/p>\n He made headlines early in 2016 when likening part of his portfolio to a taco advertisement, bringing guffaws from the ABC Q&A<\/em> audience.<\/p>\n “The other point that I would make is just because we\u2019re making strong investments into greater industry collaboration around universities and getting that research out into the real world to create these new businesses, products and services, it doesn’t mean that that detracts from what’s happening in start ups,” he said<\/p>\n “I actually get very frustrated in this debate when people say it’s one versus the other and the analogy that I kind of use is, you know that taco ad where you\u2019ve got the girl where everyone is arguing about whether you want hard tacos or soft tacos and she turns around and she says “Well, why can’t we have both?”, he asked.<\/a><\/p>\n
