Ordinary people are fed up with the empty rhetoric, embarrassing rambling and schemes that will never see the light of day simply because the KAP does not have the ability to deliver.
My Federal vote will be going to Norm Jacobsen.
Norm has seen enough and done enough in his lifetime to warrant a chance at representing us.
He’s worked all his adult life, firstly as a tradesman, then as a businessman, as a farmer and finally as a professional.
Norms background demonstrates his ability as a worker who will get things done.
I do not want to suffer another three years of inaction and ignominy.
I will be placing KAP last on my vote.
Norm Jacobsen has lived his entire life in the Kennedy electorate and is not fazed by the job ahead of him representing a huge electorate.
Norm’s a committed worker who will work hard to get Kennedy the funding it deserves from the Federal Government.
The KAP have had their time, it’s time for a change.
Put KAP last on the ballot it’s Norm’s time, give him a go.

Katter is the man for the job
We in Australia have experienced during recent years the failure of a large proportion of people in positions of responsibility and authority in this country to:
· Uphold the basic standards of integrity and honesty.
· To exhibit respect and regard for the moral values and standards applied to the education of our children.
· To set an example of Christian principles for them to follow so soundly enshrined in our constitution.
· To ensure the absolute and immoveable right to free speech for all in Australia.
· To retain, where possible, Australian ownership of our agricultural land, and to provide security of food supply for this country.
I believe that we need, in this election, to endeavour to support those who have shown that they are capable of, and dedicated to, where necessary restoring, and continuing to uphold these standards and values, that are fundamental to us remaining a free and productive country.
One of the people that I regard who has demonstrated the manner of support required to uphold and stand for good in this country is Bob Katter, and this is our reason that we need him to be returned in Kennedy and to Parliament.
He vigorously upheld for over two years his view that there was an urgent need to investigate the banking and finance industry, and their attitude to, and treatment of, small business, particularly the agricultural industry.
His loyalty to his undertaking resulted in investigations into the banking situation that vindicated his concerns.
As a consequence of his efforts our property was returned to our family, and we are aware of other small businesses that benefited from his willingness to stand up for his beliefs and the need for justice in our country.
