Mallee’s funding drought turned around, after securing a $950,000 commitment from the Coalition.
“Mallee residents already have UOMO – the Unavoidability Of Missing Out – after three wasted years under Labor. It wasn’t so under the Coalition, with mobile black spots funded.
“The Coalition recognises the urgent need for better access to bulk billed services in the middle of Labor’s healthcare crisis. That is why a Dutton-Littleproud Coalition Government will match the $8.5 billion investment into Medicare."
“This is typical of Labor’s dismissive, scorched-earth approach to regional Australia. Zero engagement, zero interest, just send a public servant to respond," Dr Webster said.
Australians have watched on with envy as similar nations such as Canada, the USA, Europe and New Zealand cut rates by 1 to 2 per cent, and all we have until the RBA’s next meeting in April is ¼ of a per cent.
"The Coalition demonstrated late last year that our energy transition will cost 44 per cent less than Labor’s plans which include 900 kilometres of the NSW-SA interconnector transmission lines which will now cost $1.5 billion more
"The Allan Government sadly has form here ... You can not help but get the impression they do not give a flying razoo about regional Victoria.”
“Labor’s fresh food tax would have hurt families at the checkout, as well as 84 agricultural commodities that were facing $50 million in annual taxes under Labor ..."
The appearance of antisemitic graffiti in Red Cliffs’ Barclay Square in Mallee’s north has again highlighted the need for strong national leadership, Member for Mallee Dr Anne Webster said.
