All across the electorate of Spence, our transport network is struggling to keep up with demand. As our communities grow, the Labor Government has ignored the dire need for basic infrastructure and road upgrades across the north.

That's why I will fight for local road and public transport projects that make a real difference in Spence. This includes upgrading our local roads to meet demand – especially Curtis Road, and other key arterial roads which have become congested and dangerous.

Inflation remains stubbornly high, and it is directly linked to the Albanese Labor Government’s spending. This is keeping the cost of mortgages, rents, groceries and necessities high. Power prices also continue to soar.

As part of the Liberal Team, I will be focused on getting us back to economic basics. Reigning in the spending that's causing inflation, lowering taxes and providing more affordable and reliable energy for households and businesses.

As part of the Coalition team, I am committed to improving online safety for our children, reducing knife crime in our community, and doing more to tackle the scourge of domestic violence.

A Coalition Government will also boost our defence and border security and get tough on non-citizens who commit violent crimes – stopping people smugglers and deporting criminals.

Local families are struggling to afford to see the doctor and are also having trouble finding available appointments.

As part of the Coalition Team, I am committed to funding more GPs to address current shortages, increasing bulk billing, and doubling the number of medicare-subsidised mental health sessions from 10 to 20.

Rent is increasingly unaffordable, and the dream of home ownership is slipping away for many – especially our young people. Despite this, Labor are bringing in record numbers of migrants without building the houses or infrastructure necessary to keep up with demand.

As part of the Liberal Team, I will be focused on getting spending under control to ease inflation and bring down interest rates.

To ease pressure on the housing market, we will reduce migration to free up well over 100,000 homes. We will also allow Australians to access up to $50,000 from their super to buy their first home.

Importantly, we will establish a $5 billion Housing Infrastructure Program to get housing projects moving by funding critical local infrastructure like sewerage and water. This is expected to unlock up to 500,000 homes, restoring the dream of home ownership for many.
