In their own words

A local, uncompromised, independent voice for the Peninsula, answerable only to you. I grew up here. I went to school here. I had my first job here. And I'm running for Mornington because this community has been let down for too long, and I intend to do something about it. This Peninsula isn't a seat on a map to me.
