 Mathew HILAKARI (Point Cook) (10:05): Once again I rise to discuss the geographically challenged Liberal Party and their lack of knowledge of Melbourne’s west. Previously the member for Caulfield at the table posted on social media that he was in Point Cook, but he was actually in Laverton. Previously the Liberal Party endorsed short-changing the Sunshine station upgrade so it would miss out on airport rail, and the same Liberal Party did not even bother to have a candidate for Gellibrand just a couple of weeks before the election was called. And now member from the other place Trung Luu unfortunately has got confused with the electorate of Point Cook, believing that Wyndham Vale and Manor Lakes are part of it – just a little bit away. I thank him for putting that flyer into people’s mailboxes so they know all about how the Liberals ignore and do not even know Melbourne’s west. I look forward to sending Mr Luu a description of the electorate, including the suburbs and a map.
