I am not aligned to any political party, donor or lobbyist.

I am truly independent – 100% self-funded – I will not accept donations from anyone - this ensures that I have no conflicts of interest (in fact I don’t know how anyone can be “independent” if they accept donations!)

I want the high level of State debt reduced to save future generations from financial hardship.

I am a former government superannuation fund chief executive, with the financial management skills and integrity to help fix what’s gone wrong with Victoria. It’s a big task, but if we get the right people in Parliament, it can be done and it needs to be done.

I want the years of broken promises and reckless spending to stop. The Labor Government wasted over $1.5 billion by not proceeding with the East - West Tunnel in Melbourne and cancelling the 2026 Commonwealth Games that should have been held in regional Victoria. That was taxpayer money down the drain. This waste needs to stop.

I will personally donate $10,000 every quarter ($40,000 pa) to not-for-profit, community organisations in the Macedon electorate whilst I am the local Member.

After a long and successful career, I’m ready to commit to the task of helping to turn Victoria around and serving the Macedon district community.
