Spare us a lecture about Australia Post from the Liberal Party, whose Prime Minister, of course, so famously tried to sack Christine Holgate on the floor of the parliament because she was standing up for local postal branches and trying to protect postal services in rural and regional Australia. Spare us the lecture!
I actually have a question for the minister. I imagine the minister will have to take this on notice. I would like the minister to come back to this chamber and explain whether the government has raised concerns of the Campbelltown post office being closed and explain whether Firle post office, which is next door, will follow next. What briefings has the minister had on this? Has the local member, James Stevens, who seems to be asleep at the wheel, done anything about it?
