It is very exciting to be in our new office in Berwick and we have taken great pleasure in meeting new faces and learning more about the many new organisations and groups in our community. It reinforces to me the importance of staying connected with people, which enables the sharing of ideas and concerns that all work towards growing and strengthening our community
The recent state government budget announcements have highlighted the many broken election promises for our electorate. In total we are paying 54 new taxes, including a rent tax, health tax, school tax and an increase to the fire service levy. Our hospitals continue to be under pressure and there is no money for new projects in the Berwick electorate. Beaconsfield Railway station has missed out again on a much needed upgrade to provide shelter and accessible toilets for those with a disability. This is 10 years of state government mismanagement. Please go to my website for more information https://www.bradbattin.com.au. I will continue to advocate for my community in parliament as your state member for the Berwick electorate.
There is still so much we can do as a community to support each other through the cost-of-living crisis by reaching out to those in need, supporting our local clubs, organisations, cafes, and restaurants. Our small businesses and volunteer organisations can remain a big part of who we are as we share in all that is good in our community.
Please feel free to drop by my office if you have any questions or comments to share, or you can contact me on 5953 0216 or via email at
