The past few years have been tough with the COVID 19 pandemic, severe floods and storm damage to our region.

Reports today that ascribe certain views regarding former Prime Minister, Scott Morrison are not representative of views I hold about him. Having known Scott Morrison for many years in many different capacities I have only the highest regard for his character, ability, and service as Prime Minister.
