19 Nov Episode 54 – The battle for the state of Victoria
If you thought the U.S. Elections were hot, then you haven’t experienced the heat of a Victoria State Election which is to be held on the 24th of November. In recognition, I decided to bring on two of the most prominent candidates in this year’s election – David Southwick is the current state member in the Victorian parliament for the city of Caulfield represents the Liberal Party, and Philip Dalidakis is the state member for Southern Metropolitan Region. They discuss their platforms and projects regarding small businesses and the industries they see as most important for Victoria. They also explain some of the changes they want to implement to further Victoria’s economy and share the steps they will take to make it happen. And, of course, there’s also a bit of good old fashioned political mudslinging between the candidates
Don’t miss this week’s segment of Reuben’s Rant where I share my thoughts on Australian Gambling Tycoon James Packer and the problems he faced with too much debt.
