This Saturday, Aston has the opportunity to elect Mary Doyle — a strong, local voice in the Albanese Labor Gov. A local who is focused on easing the pressure on families. A representative who will back Medicare & affordable health. A leader who will always put locals first.

The Liberals have applied to trademark the SEC logo. They're trying to privatise the last part that's still public. We'll bring it back - for all Victorians.

Matthew Guy won’t take responsibility for the actions of his MPs and candidates. Who does that remind you of?

Peter Dutton has refused to stand in front of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Flags if he becomes Prime Minister. Typical of the man who walked out on the national apology.

"There’s something I want to be really clear on:. Privatisation of our electricity system has failed. Those big companies have leached megaprofits out of pensioners and families. We'll return government ownership of energy and bring back the SEC." . - @DanielAndrewsMP.

Peter Dutton and the Liberals are launching their campaign in Victoria today. But here, he's remembered as the Minister who ripped millions from our health system and tried to end bulk billing. Just like Morrison, Dutton has nothing but contempt for Victoria. We won't forget.

Dutton has appointed Jacinta Nampijinpa Price as Shadow Minister for 'government efficiency.'. We're seeing this exact tactic play out in the US in real time - we know it's code for slashing services. He's trying to Americanise Australia to divide and cut - we can't let him.

Yesterday David Davis couldn't answer one basic question about his Election Budget. With the media blackout underway, the only way Victorians can see this new ad is online. RT so Victorians know the Liberals can't run the economy.

A re-elected Labor government will enshrine government-ownership of the State Electricity Commission in the Constitution. So it can never be privatised ever again.

Electricity privatisation has failed and Victorians have paid the price. That's why we're bringing back the State Electricity Commission. Power owned by Victorians, for Victorians.

Please stop making our job so easy
The choice for our CBD this election is simple, a second drug injecting room under Labor or a new green public park under the Liberals. Only a vote for the Liberals and Nationals will make Melbourne the worlds most liveable city once again. #Springst

Matthew Guy's Liberals promised to build Airport Rail - and all they delivered was fake signs at Southern Cross Station, confusing tourists who asked where the train to the airport was. Only Labor has begun work on SRL Airport.

Labor's HTV preferences the Liberal candidate above a Neo Nazi. The Liberal HTV preferences a Neo Nazi above Labor. It is clear - Labor would prefer the Liberals to a Nazi. The Liberals would prefer a Nazi to Labor.

Meet John Lister: local high school teacher, CFA volunteer, and Labor’s candidate for Werribee. John is a true local. He grew up in Werribee and is building his life there with his partner, Mary. He’s running for the same reason he became a teacher: to make a difference.

Matthew Guy's Liberals sold off Victoria's public power assets to private, for-profit companies. PS. Just in case Michael blocked you like he blocked us, here's a screenshot.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in Australia. So we've built the country's first dedicated heart hospital. Major construction is finished, and it'll be open in just a few months – providing life-saving cardiac treatment for thousands of Victorians every year.

Matthew Guy's Liberals closed Mortlake Hospital. And hospitals in Eildon.Koroit.Murtoa.Red Cliffs.Macarthur.Clunes.Beeac.Birregurra.Lismore.Elmore.Waranga.Burwood.Altona.and Mordialloc.
So good to join @EmmaKealyMP today making health announcements in Mortlake, Willaura & Hamilton. Andrews Govt have ignored the needs of regional health services for 2 long! These communities deserve better. Only a Lib Nats Govt will fix Victoria’s health crisis #springst

John Pesutto has just finished a year-long legal battle with one of his own MPs and lost. Whether it's legal stoushes or infighting - the Liberals aren't focused on what matters. They don’t trust each other, so why should you? . The choice is clear.

Brad Battin's newly promoted Liberal MP Joe McCracken has said they'll cut essential services if they come into power. Let's be clear: the Liberals have one plan - cutting services Victorians rely on. And Joe's just been caught saying the quiet bit out loud.

Is Rudy Giuliani the Liberals' new General Counsel?.
The Victorian Liberals have accused the VEC of a “serious, deliberate and unprecedented interference” in the state election, and asked the commission to “cease and desist” any further public commentary.

For those playing at home, the answer is zero. Matthew Guy’s Liberals promised to build Avalon Rail, Doncaster Rail, Rowville Rail and Airport Rail - and all they delivered was fake signs at Southern Cross Station, confusing tourists who asked where the train to the airport was.
When Matthew Guy's Liberals were last in government, they promised to build Avalon Rail, Doncaster Rail, Rowville Rail and Airport Rail. How many kilometres of track did they build?. #LiberalTrivia.

For the proud SEC workers who built and maintained our energy system - it's about more than just electricity. It's about opportunity for workers, families and communities. And that's what we'll bring back - power for Victorians, by Victorians.

New leader. Same Liberals. The Victorian Liberals stand for cuts to services we rely on. They're out of touch with Victorian's values and so obsessed with in-fighting that they're not focused on you.

A re-elected Andrews Labor Government will make V/Line fares cheaper - and add almost 200 weekend services on regional lines around the state.

Peter Dutton has released the costs of his nuclear power fantasy, and it doesn’t add up. The CSIRO - literal scientists - have disputed his figures, claiming that nuclear would cost twice as much. He’s cooked the books, and if he gets his way, he’ll cook the country.

Matthew Guy's Liberals are picking big multinational energy companies over the Chief Scientist. They privatised our energy, they pick overseas corporations over science, and if they get the chance - they'll bring back fracking in Victoria.
