Do you follow your own convictions in Parliament?
Yes I do, but if the view of the community if different to mine, I take that into consideration when voting or speaking. I believe that MP’s are elected to represent not rule, and that is why I spend a lot of time travelling in the Electorate and speaking to people about their views on issues. I also encourage people to write to me and express their views if they strongly agree or disagree with Government policy or plans.
