Alex Hawke MP, Federal Member for
Mitchell says the next election, due in exactly 100 days, will provide the
people of Mitchell with a clear choice.
“The election will be a choice
between the Coalition with its Real Solutions Plan to build a strong,
prosperous economy, or another three years of chaos and broken promises from
Labor”, said Alex Hawke MP.
“As I listen to residents at
shopping centres, school events and sporting grounds, they are telling me that
they want a return to good government.
“They also want a government that
has a strong plan to help families get ahead, deal with cost of living
pressures and creates more jobs.
“The carbon tax will be a big
issue, particularly as it is going to go up again by 5 per cent on 1 July. If elected, removing the carbon tax will be
the first priority of a new Coalition government.
Alex Hawke said he was talking to
people throughout Mitchell about the Coalition’s plans for a stronger economy
with more jobs, higher wages and better services for all Australians.
“It doesn’t matter if you are a
student, or parent or older person, you want to be able to plan your future
with confidence. Our Plan allows people
to do that.
“We will assist household budgets
by abolishing the carbon tax and take immediate pressure off electricity and
gas bills. We will also help families, retirees and pensioners by keeping
the tax thresholds as well as fortnightly pension and benefit increases.
This will provide tax cuts and pension increases without a carbon tax.
“If we are elected on September
14, we will do the important things that this government has neglected like
getting the Budget back under control, repaying debt, ending the waste and
stopping the boats.
Alex Hawke said the next election
was a choice between more Labor debt, deficits, division and dysfunction and
the Coalition with the Plan and experience to restore hope, reward and
opportunity and to help all Australians get ahead.
“Australia needs a Coalition
government to provide Australians with the good government that our country
deserves.”
