2016

At the 2016 election, Simpkins suffered a 5.20% swing against him and was defeated by Labor candidate Anne Aly. During the election campaign, Liberal Justice Minister Michael Keenan was accused of starting a smear campaign against Aly. Simpkins joined in the campaign targeting Aly for her previous work in counter-terrorism, despite having written to her, in 2015 before she was a Labor candidate, to convey his admiration for her work including the "content of your media interviews and approach to the threat of radicalisation".

The meeting was held on 9 February 2015 and the spill motion was defeated 61 votes to 39.
