What will be done to bring in more doctors and nurses to aid people? The Universal Health Plan Governance Board wants to prevent something we see in our current broken system, which is that people have coverage but no access. We need to improve access, and deal with our current provider shortage.

Ludicrous and entirely avoidable that health care is still a postcode lottery in a country as rich as Australia. GP bulk-billing in Hobart is still much lower than the average, and Tasmania also lagging behind on most other measures. #auspol #politas

Reform of the Defence Estate is warranted but will be confronting for some in the community. So the Gov must continue to push information out & be open-minded to feedback. After all, flexibility in war is much better than reinforcing defeat. #auspol #politas

Scotland once led the world in engineering, but under the SNP we’re lagging behind. We will improve core connections, dualling the A9, fixing the SNP’s ferries fiasco for good and driving progress on major projects such as tunnels for Shetland.

Pushing for solar on car parks and rooftops ☀ Earlier this year I campaigned successfully for new homes to come with solar panels as standard. I want us to go further to ensure we maximise the clean, cheap energy we can produce at home. Car parks and warehouses should be next on the agenda.
