AARON HARPER LABOR

-

The Palaszczuk Labor r government is the only party that has a clear vision for Townsville and Thuringowa. Since I’ve been the e Member for Thuringowa, our government has invested $156 million into the area, including completing Riverway Drive Stage One, a new police station in the Upper Ross, the Kirwan Ambulance Station and school upgrades. A Palaszczuk Labor government has committed to $108 million for projects in Thuringowa like Riverway Drive Stage Two, Kirwan Health Campus, Driveit NQ and a hall for Thuringowa State High School.

I will continue to advocate for more investment­s into my electorate.

Under the Palaszczuk Labor government there will be 150 extra police officers in the Northern region. The LNP’S plan amounts to a cut of 90.

This government will continue to invest in community safety measures like a $30 million upgrade to Kirwan

Police Station which the LNP won’t commit to. The choice for people is clear, stable leadership of Annastacia Palaszczuk or the rabble of Deb Frecklingt­on and minor parties. It was this government’s strong health response that kept Queensland­ers safe while Deb Frecklingt­on demanded the borders be reopened 64 times. The LNP will cut, sack and sell to pay for their billions of dollars in unfunded commitment­s. As a former paramedic I know the impact this will have on our health system. The reason Queensland can focus on economic recovery is because of our health response. A Palaszczuk Labor government has a clear economic recovery plan which will help Townsville grow into the future.
