Do you feel your politicians listen to you and act on what you say? Most of us don’t win Lotto, but just try to find ways to make ends meet, prefer to feel like a ‘glass half full’ and do what we can to guide our kids on how to navigate the changing world successfully and independently. We rely on good Government policies to assist us along the way, not hold us back.

David is an independent thinker and not indebted to anyone for anything. He is more like the typical Labor constituent the incumbent is supposed to represent, or the aspirational working-class Liberal, a more balanced Green, and everything much of the Corio electorate is. We all know what it is like to take the first step to start off small and build things up. We don’t get anywhere near a local politicians’ salary (i.e., $382k pa) and expenses (i.e., $505k pa), and what do they give us in return?
