25.01.2022 RIP Kathleen Downes today finally you can rest knowing this depraved being will never hurt anyone else. Sadly the Justice system still is not listening never ever allow those who are so brutal to walk our streets lock them up with no release.

23.01.2022 An elected Liberal Government will create a Rapid Response Victims Support Service to immediately provide support for victims and witnesses of these incidents. ...The Service will provide a mobile, 24/7 state-wide rapid response that will be on the scene soon after the traumatic incident to support victims then and there. Currently, victims, their families and witnesses to violent crime, critical incidents, road trauma or natural disasters do not receive appropriate support in a timely manner and at their time of greatest need during the initial period of grief and shock. The Service will provide victims with immediate support and also access to ongoing counselling where needed. More information: https://tinyurl.com/ll4oftd

18.01.2022 The challenges of life continue, every day we see the very best and the very worst of human beings. We must not tolerate those who are evil, those who hurt others, kill others, those who have no care for other people have lost their right to walk free in our world. I feel incredibly sad and send my heartfelt love and support to those injured and their families. To the service providers thank you for everything you do, Police, ambulance, fire, hospitals, staff and others. To the strangers who stopped and helped whose lives will never be the same again thank you. To those who want to hurt us in our beautiful country this is not acceptable, we will not tolerate this behavior. If there is anyone who needs support please call us we are here to help.

17.01.2022 Today we supported those who had lost their family members 30 years ago on this tragic day. It was a beautiful celebration of those lost and those left . It was a privilege to be there offering support. 30 years on, the love and support for each other was palpable, Our support is with all our Victims.
