Out door knocking in Youngtown today, what’s on your mind that the Federal Government should be focusing on?
Medicare and job security big topics from today so far!

Very inspiring talking to Samantha we met at #Alanvale with Minister Giles and her enthusiasm for her study and desire to work in the aged care sector is wonderful. Free #TAFE is helping her whole class to focus on study and spend that money where she needs it most - her family!

To follow on from the good news about Interest rate cuts due to the good work in lowering inflation from the high levels we inherited:

How else are #Labor addressing the cost of living issues?

The Liberals opposed every single one of these!

Let’s take a look

A wonderful conversation with Mowbray Golf Club.

It is growing and looking to secure its own water supply.

The great thing is the proposed dam expansion would act as a sediment catchment stopping a lot of urban runoff into the #Tamar river.
