21.01.2022 It is a tough choice this election. So this is my How to Vote card.. They really need to go to one person one vote!
20.01.2022 I was going to post about the 4th Lockdown that we have once again gone through. But my mother always said. If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all. Sorry Mum.. But these Lockdowns are KILLING Mum & Dad / Small & Medium Businesses! There has to be a better way.
19.01.2022 Saturday afternoon I popped out to Eaglehawk Canterbury Park to watch Eaglehawk play Kangaroo Flat. I will not go into the scores! This was for the official opening of the upgraded lights & scoreboard! The grounds and centre are looking great!
15.01.2022 I would like to thank everyone that supported & voted for me in this council election.. I am happy to say that I was elected to council and am looking forward to serving the great people of Bendigo.
10.01.2022 On Saturday morning the 10th of April I attended a non official event in Bendigo, which was the Falun Dafa rally to protest the treatment of minorities in China by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party), to lend my support to the Chinese people in Australia and the minorities back in China that are fighting for their very right to exist for the simple freedoms we here in Australia take for granted! I will always stand with good people fighting for the basic human right of freedom ...and a free democratic system to live under. The persecution of minority groups under the CCP takes away their very right to exist & to practice their way of life and beliefs. I was very disappointed that there was no local media there. https://www.theepochtimes.com/theyre-here-for-freedom-austr

08.01.2022 I could not be happier to see that I have almost achieved a home run with the ridiculous Bendigo Sustainability Group. It is very clear that they care more about climate change and making people walk or ride a bike than they are about creating JOBS! While, I am sure they are driving their big 4WD gas guzzlers. All while pointing their finger at hard working people just trying to survive, and telling them they are not doing enough for the CLIMATE! Below you will find my answer...Continue reading
06.01.2022 Media Release A Silicon Valley in Bendigo. 20-09-2020 Vaughan Williams, who has a 25+ year background in I.T. and is a candidate for the Lockwood Ward in the 2020 Bendigo Council elections, has announced his plans for a new Technology-centric industry that he thinks should be located in Bendigo.... Mr Williams stated" I believe a Technology-centric industry which conducts research and develops Hardware, Software and Cyber Security would be a really great innovative initiative. The development of the Technology Centre could be a collaborative project between private enterprise, Latrobe University, Local, State & Federal Government (Regional capacity building and maybe the CSIR0). Bendigo could become one the major Cyber Security research, development and application Centres, not just in regional Victoria but Australia wide. "There may be future opportunities to manufacture components for Defence Systems capabilities", Candidate Williams said. Mr Williams would also advocate for forming a local Smart I.T. City initiative group, involving some of the smartest I.T. business people in Bendigo and Latrobe University, so Bendigo can be the cutting-edge example to all of Australia in Technology for the benefit of the community. Mr Williams indicated that this would be some of the initiatives he’d advocate for if he was a successful candidate. "I expect there would be a huge interest in these projects and we already have land available in East Bendigo for such a facility", said Mr Williams. Mr Williams also thought that there would be a very positive impact on Economic Development and Employment through repositioning ourselves as a Regional Smart City and rebuilding our reputation as a Smart Country. This would help assist Bendigo’s and Victoria’s high youth unemployment and can also be applied to smart agriculture. Further enquiries: Vaughan Williams.

04.01.2022 What a great ANZAC day Sunday was. I went down to the dawn service in Bendigo, which was well attended. What a beautiful service it was. Then I headed over to the Kangaroo Flat morning service where with Cr Rod Fyffe we lay the wreath on behalf of the City of Bendigo. Then back to the Bendigo morning service. Then as usual I headed over to the Bendigo RSL to chat with our great present and past service members over a few beers. You could not have asked for better weather.
02.01.2022 Once again, I just want to thank the people that had the faith to put me into council. I will do my best to serve you all well and together we can make Bendigo the best place in Victoria to live and work! Installation Ceremony for Greater Bendigo City Council 2020-2024
01.01.2022 If there is anyone in Kangaroo Flat, Maiden Gully, Lockwood or Marong, that may have a place for me to put up a sign.. Please let me know.
