In their own words
Hi, I’m Nalinda. I’m running in this year’s state election as a candidate with Victorian Socialists because I believe a better society is possible and I want to be a part of building it. I’m a Clyde North local and have lived in the area for four years. Before that I lived in Beaconsfield.
