Queensland is lagging behind the rest of Australia when it comes to having access to fluoridated water, and there is none available in the Mackay-Whitsundays. This needlessly condemns kids to worse dental outcomes, and means families end up spending thousands of dollars more to repair preventable issues. The only opinions that matter on whether we should fluoridate water are dentists, the trained professionals who see inside our mouths and have to fix and clean them, day in, day out.

A former police officer has achieved what no LNP candidate before him has managed to do, winning one of Labor’s longest-running safe seats. The LNP’s Nigel Dalton is well-known in the electorate through his years as a sergeant in the crime prevention unit, connecting with students and winning Citizen of the Year in 2023. Now he’s the figurehead for a fed-up electorate seeking to serve justice to the party they feel forgotten by.

Most readers would agree a $117,000 salary should come with the expectation you’re dedicating yourself full time to your constituents. But George Christensen seems to think he doesn’t need to be in the country to be a local councillor. He’s now called into two consecutive council meetings remotely. He was in London for the first one, and even the mayor doesn’t know where he was on Wednesday for the special meeting to vote on a new deputy.
