Stunning day to door knock in Perth near Robertson Park. Door knocking major apartment complexes can be tricky and a lot more intensive: I’ve just spent 1.5 hours on the intercom and on the doors at this complex behind me! But it’s definitely worthwhile, as people are very

A great 3 hour door knocking session this arvo in the West Perth part of the Perth electorate. A lot of conversations covering a vast number of issues: planning, housing, pedestrian and cycling safety, e-scooters, roads and the state of political debate. Thanks to everyone

Just finished a door knocking session in East Perth, near the East Perth cemetery. Thank you to everyone who took the time to have a chat. Very strong support for the new primary school, WACA redevelopment and more activation of the area!

Max Chandler-Mather and the Greens lost because they choose to play hard oppositional politics. Their delay tactics and attacks on Labor’s unprecedented & massive housing program lost them votes. They put politics before good policy. #AusVotes25 #auspol #ausvotes

Here’s some tips for WA Liberals 👇 Nothing says ‘supporting women’ like replacing Libby Mettam as Opposition Leader - despite her decade of experience - with a first-time MP. And undermining her in the lead up to the election by mysterious secret polling. And don’t close

A great door knock this morning in North Perth. I never take this role for granted, and that’s why each weekend as the local member I door knock different parts of the Perth electorate. Thank you to everyone who took time to have a chat on the door.

Sixteen modular tiny homes for seniors near completion in Geraldton, built by Summit. Part of our record social housing delivery program. But opposed by the local Nationals MP.
