It’s a privilege to serve the people of the west: MP

5 column warning Western United Football Club – Women’s Team, Community Day

Moira Deeming MP

Although my first year as an MP has been – let’s just say, tumultuous – advocating for my constituents of Western Metropolitan has been an honour.

I’ve called for fair funding in the west for roads, schools and community health centres; for fair taxes and laws that protect workers, parents, women, and children; as well as for the government to be held to the

same standards that ordinary people are when they go over budget, or break promises or fail to do their jobs.  

As an MP, I value being able to connect with residents. It has been an absolute privilege this year to meet many amazing people working and living out in the west – like the mums and dads who love their kids and just want them to be healthy, get a good education and make a life for themselves.  

Like the amazing volunteers who selflessly run all our local sports clubs, just because they want to help kids develop their character and enjoy the thrill of the game.  Like the multicultural communities who cherish Australian democracy and proudly throw their lot in with ours.  

Thank you for standing with me and I promise that I will keep standing up for you – the hard-working people of the west!

As the year draws to a close, however you and your family spend this time – Christmas parties, end-of-year parties, the Boxing Day Test, Boxing Day sales – I wish you and your family all the best. My office will be closed for the holiday break but please reach out in 2024 if I can be of assistance to you, your family, business, school, sporting club or community group.
