I note that Mr Windsor is getting support from such organisations as the MUA [Maritime Services Union], apparently the CFMEU and also Get Up, all of whom strongly support the Labor Party

Now I know that there were explorers in the past looking for the inland sea, but Mr Windsor’s condoning of the MUA support in the seat of New England is ridiculous considering that we are some three hours’ drive from the ocean.
Additionally the CFMEU is part of the Union movement that in the Royal Commission report into Trade Union Governance and Corruption found a widespread and deep seated culture of lawlessness amongst union officials.
Finally, “Get Up” is a left wing organisation whose views run counter to conservative values and is very actively supporting Mr Windsor through erection of electioneering signs by roadsides, the attendance of “volunteers” at polling booths and no doubt through other means.
This trifecta of supporters clearly shows the direction in which Mr Windsor will be required to vote should he be selected on July 2.
We know from Mr Windsor’s past record that he is a Labor supporter and one can only speculate as to what he must do to repay the support from the MUA, CFMEU and their union friends as well as “Get Up”. He owes them and will be called upon at some time to repay the ”debt”.
So if you are a conservative person then you are better off with Barnaby. There is no doubt that Windsor will support Shorten to get him into Government.
