LETTERS, COMMENT & ANNOUNCEMENTS COMPULSORY VOTING LINKED TO THIRD WORLD ‘CHAIN IMMIGRATION’ HAS ALREADY CHANGED AUSTRALIA FOR THE WORST The only compulsory vote in the English speaking world is in Australia - once known for producing sheep which have now morphed into sheeple - dictated to by their undemocratically elected governments, whose internationalist socialist agenda is dictated by the new 3rd World Order agenda. With Australia as a target to be penetrated with and by immigration and refugee programmes to continue to build ‘their’ numbers, to divide and eventually conquer this weakly and treacherously led country. It will get bloody as so-called ‘gangs’ of African origin start feuding and fighting in our major cities, as very timidly reported by the media in Queensland recently. They feud, fight and ‘build’ their numbers, sustained by our welfare and ‘special benefits’. Now the media reports that the Queensland State government wants to enfranchise convicts including drug traffickers, whilst always pushing to lower the voting age. These policies will guarantee the destruction of Australian society as we knew it. You may think she'll be right mate - in short ‘she’ won't even be a she - rather some poor mixed up ‘weed’ smoking pseudo intellectual of indeterminate parentage and sex, near zero I.Q. with a mind bent by a socialist indoctrinated school agenda, well versed in street demonstrations, slum survival and perversions but won't even travel to work about in our labour strapped agricultural and mining industries. As more and more drugs both legal and illicit are pumped into our population, the billions of 3 rd World hordes are slavering at the mouth as they anticipate their occupation of Australia. Wake up Australia, get smart, get active or get out. The free ride will soon be over. What our forefathers fought for is nearly lost on drugs. WIth a simply stated game plan task force in each postcode, achieving an average of only 10 members in each of our 16,000 postcodes at a nominal membership fee of $20 per member (about the price of a cheap packet of cigarettes - with no paid personnel, would give us a $3,000,000 war chest to back good people into our drug plagued national and state capitals. With the nation drifting towards bankruptcy, fight while you can. We are a dumping ground for drugs from everywhere, also questionable refugees and immigrants.We have a plan, have you?

The farmer knew he was coming and prepared this little "presentation" for him. Jim has a long history with horses and was a former pony club instructor and was This might be a timely warning for Lockyer Valley residents, spring is here and so are Eastern Brown Snakes The one in the photo slithered its way through several Laidley residences recently before being run over by a vehicle on Summer Street, near the corner of Wyman Close, it measured around 1.2 metres in length. This species has the unfortunate distinction of causing more deaths from snake bite than any other species of snake in Australia. Many bites have been a direct result of people trying to kill these snakes and could obviously have been avoided. Simple precautions, such as wearing long pants, thick socks and solid footwear when working or exploring outdoors greatly reduces the risk of being envenomated should there be a close encounter with a delighted to see this beautiful little chestnut filly with this message. "It is lovely to have these little offers of support as I go around the electorate" said Savage. "It gives me heart to continue what I am trying to achieve".

Make no mistake the brown snake should not be tangled with, if it feels threatened it can become aggressive and it is very fast, some things we can do to reduce our chances of coming in contact with the Eastern Brown: • Remove shelter like piles of rubble, building materials and rock walls; • Keep grass short; • Create a clearing around the house; • Plant native trees that attract snake-eating birds like kookaburras; • Get rid of rodents; • Remove water sources like ponds and bromeliads.

CANNERY IN THE LOCKYER VALLEY AT LAST I was delighted to hear the news of positive progress in the plans for a new Cannery for Lockyer to be situated at Withcott. In 2017 I was the only candidate running for the seat of Lockyer who made an effort to hi-lite and come out in full support of this wonderful project. Not only will this create 200 plus jobs during construction and permanent full time jobs during production, but the flow on effect for onfarm jobs is enormous. Since the closure of Golden Circle Qld in 2011 farmers have had no outlet to sell produce for canning or other forms of value adding processing. Not only can Lockyer farmers have certainty of ongoing sales at agreed prices, allowing for budgeting and long term planning of farm management and crop cycles, but farmers from outside the district, such as mango and pineapple from the Sunshine Coast and more northern areas of Qld. will have a cannery to supply. This will bring more money and work into our region. This is truly a win-win scenario and I am amazed others in positions of power and influence have been so tardy in their support - until now of course, everyone likes a winner. I offer my sincere best wishes to Col Dorber (CEO) and his team and wish them all the very best with this fantastic project. If elected you will have a number one fan backing you in any way possible, in the form of Jim Savage Independent MP for Lockyer.

WARREGO HIGHWAY SAFETY AND JOBS PRIORITY PLUS Member for Lockyer Jim McDonald has met with Member for Wright Scott Buchholz at Fairway Drive, Hatton Vale (pictured below) recently to discuss his priorities for this funding. ‘A future LNP government will commit $75 million to safety improvements on the Warrego Highway,’ said Mr McDonald. ‘After listening to the community and getting an understanding of their concerns, this funding has been earmarked for use at some of the highways most dangerous intersections.’ Mr McDonald said that priorities for this funding would be the construction of deceleration and turning lanes and the extension of existing acceleration lanes at Niemeyer Road, Summerholm Road and Fairway Drive. Other projects prioritised for completion include improvements to pedestrian and vehicle movements across the old Warrego Highway at Withcott. ‘These are three of the most dangerous intersections on the Warrego Highway. Residents risk their lives everyday trying to turn into or out of these intersections and it is time something was done to reduce this risk.’ The Lockyer MP also thanked Federal Member for Wright, Scott Buchholz MP for the federal government’s commitment to the project. ‘The federal government has contributed $60 Million towards this project. All we need now is for the state government to produce their contribution. This will not happen under Labor and that is why it is so important that we change the government on the 31st of October,’ said Mr McDonald. LNP leader Deb Frecklington and Member for Lockyer Jim McDonald made the announcement on 18th August, that a future LNP government will provide the $15m needed to progress this project. It is part of the LNP’s $1B commitment to infrastructure and will see tenders called within 100 day of a new government.
