NSW Labor Party Wins State Local Seats Of Londonderry And Mount Druitt and NSW Liberals Wins NSW Government!

On Saturday 28th March 2015, we have an election of surprises, in relation to results around the NSW State.

Locally, we have NSW Labor Prue Car who won the Londonderry seat and Councillor Edmond Atalla who won the seat on primary votes. This will make it 2 new members entering the NSW Parliament to represent their well deserved wins.

Both candidates obtains swings of 13.4% in Londonderry to 11.1% in Mount Druitt. That means that NSW Labor  and grabbed back heartland seats they lost in 2011 NSW State Elections.

I congratulate each candidate for their winning results and being part of 'whyilovemountdruitt'.

On a State level the Baird Liberal Government will retain NSW with currently 52 seats, 32 Labor, in relation to  seats won by primary parties with *70% of the votes counted, currently.

So my issue will now be how will Labor opposition get the improvements required in both Londonderry and Mount Druitt with a Liberal held NSW Government.  It is very simple, a lot of the improvements will come from The NSW Baird Liberal Government (from decisions made), yet both candidates need to be strong not just be strong advocate for the Labor Party only but for the local community first representing then Labor Party. They will be on test for the next 4 years, as is every NSW Government elected member.

We, in Mount Druitt need to look at such improvements that make our place an improved better place to live in with the essential services required by each of us, being mindful that our community will change with a growing population. Whilst promises were thrown at us from both parties during the election, we need to ensure both promises are kept, not just worded.

We need the new members of NSW Parliament not to be just opposing every item that NSW Government improves and we need improvements to be congratulated not ignored and they will need NSW Ministers meet local new members, placing party hats aside and work jointly, harmoniously for the 'Better' of the community.

We wish all NSW Members of Parliament a great 4 years in Government as they all work hard representing the best interests of their respected communities.

In  relation to candidates that did not win the NSW State Election, we offer strength, courage and suggest be an advocate to ensure our local 2 newly elected State Members - stay in line! Become Shadow members of each seat!
