Congratulations to Michael Gidley for your tireless effort to win Mount Waverley back for the Liberal Party. During the ABC election broadcast Michael said that Victorians were not happy with rises in utility bills, and wanted a change. I would like know how a Liberal Government and Michael Gidley can reverse the rises?

The battle for Mt Waverley

The political party leaders and candidates should be canonised for their ability to perform miracles in short space of time - yes, all the promises of buckets of money for schools, road, carparks, hospital, housing, police, etc.

The Government and Opposition have four years each term to debate all these issues. They don't have to come out with all these ridiculous promises during campaign time to lure votes. A Government can do a lot without any prior promises - they just allocate the money for the abovementioned things during budget time and materialise them. That's a Utopian Government!

Why do the Opposition only open their traps during election time about what will do if elected? If any Opposition can demonstrate that they have the ability and ways to fix the problems and mess a Government create, speak out in the Parliament. Who won't change his / her voting preference if the Opposition can prove that they can do a better job?
