My pledge to you...
As a long term local, I’ve always loved this part of Queensland. It’s a great place to live and I’ve raised my family here.
I’ve always been involved locally. Whether it be coaching the kids’ footy team, volunteering on the P&C or being involved in the Rural Fire Brigade, I’ve always been keen to give back.
It’s for that reason that I’ve put my hand up to run for the seat of Oxley.
The fact is that Labor’s cost of living crisis is hitting local residents hard – including families, small businesses, and our seniors. It’s not right.
As your LNP candidate for Oxley, I’ll fight for a better deal for us – that means tackling congestion on local roads and reducing taxes and inflation.
I want to see our local region thriving and see your hard work rewarded. Together, I pledge to get Australia back on track.
All the best,
Kevin Burns
