𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐃𝐀𝐘 2024 🌹🕊 Every year at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month, we pause in silence for 1 minute to acknowledge, honour and remember.

It was an honour to speak, release a peace dove 🕊and gather afterwards with our veterans and their families to give personal hugs of gratitude and love 💗 Thank you to our subbranch team, all in attendance including Mayor Frank and Councillors Amelia, Jess and Nicola, to fellow speakers and wreath layers, and most of all, our veterans 🙏 You are so loved.To honour and acknowledge their sacrifices, we must every day strive to be the best we can, and never take for granted the freedoms they fought for.

𝐍𝐄𝐖 𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐃 👩‍⚖️ A hearty congratulations to all of our new Ministers and Members of Parliament, and to the LNP for forming a majority Government. It has been very much an ‘edge of seat’ election 🤼, and no doubt everyone is excited and working hard in readiness for the first Parliamentary sitting! To those who missed out, we send our best wishes and gratitude for the time spent with you over the years regardless of which side of the Chamber you sat! 🙏We now look forward to working with all MPs and Government in continuing to achieve for Noosa as we have, and for broader Queensland. As mentioned in Noosa Today, we have requested surety and timelines on welcomed LNP election promises made to Noosa during the campaign, as there were no ‘caveats’, only that should they be elected to government, they would deliver 👍👉Read further on this at noosatoday.com.au/news/04-11-2024/independent-noosa-mp-calls-for-new-government-to-deliver-electi...👉For a list of the new Ministers and their portfolios, head to cabinet.qld.gov.au/ministers-portfolios.aspx ...
