The sitting member for Richmond, Labor’s Justine Elliott, is aptly named because, as far as I have seen, that’s all she’s done for the past 16 years – sit.

Have you ever clapped eyes on her or heard her speak up for us in Parliament? That’s why I’m voting for Mandy Nolan because I know she will truly represent the people of this electorate. Supine, immobile and invisible she won’t be.

Vote for Mandy and action on climate change and don’t bother to go looking for Labor’s policy on this because they don’t have one. Chuck the lot of them out and bring back hope and integrity.
