The population of the Parkes electorate gives me more than 216,000 reasons to love this job.
Those 216,000 plus people include some of the most unselfish, kind and caring individuals you could meet, who go above and beyond every day to make their communities great places to live.
And in the past month or so, the full generosity of this electorate has given me many reasons to celebrate.
Watch my full speech congratulating the Royal Flying Doctor Service, the Royal Flying Doctor Service Broken Hill Women’s Auxiliary, the Country Women’s Association in Condoblin and Terramungamine, Little Wings and the Pink Angels.
