Some really top drawer independents in National seats would improve the lives of country people - and Australia as a whole.

MPs who actually understand climate change is killing rural areas, MPs not working for the interests of mining companies.

MPs who can use their vote as a balance of power

Did your priests accept JobKeeper during COVID pandemic?
If so, why?

The VCAA response to this has been pathetic - an indictment of management, the education department and a tired government. The announcement of another enquire to begin NEXT YEAR is a can being kicked down the road while our students put up with an unjust system.
