Craig Beale

Australian Democrats candidate for La Trobe

Candidate

Why I am standing

I joined the Democrats out of great concern for those in the community who are voiceless. This party has always stood up for the rights and interests of the underdog.

Residents in La Trobe are sick of rising interest rates and exorbitant stamp duties. This is one of the highest growth areas in the country, and the housing affordability crisis is worsening.

I’ll fight for fairer tax laws, a better public health system and increased government accountability. Above all, I want a greater investment in renewable energy to ensure a sustainable planet for our children.
