Conviction Over Party Lines – A Conversation with David

In politics today, too many decisions are made to protect party interests, not serve the people.

In this clip, James and David talk about what it means to be a conviction politician — someone who’s willing to stand up for what’s right, not just what’s popular in the party room.

It’s about listening to the community, not taking orders from party bosses. It’s about being free to make the hard calls and to speak for the Riverina, not for city-based politics.

It’s time for a different kind of politics.

Facing Reality, Not Fantasy — A Conversation with David

James recently sat down with David to talk about the real challenges we face — not just here in the Riverina, but across Australia.

From the broken promises of the Murray-Darling Basin Plan and endless water buybacks, to the shocking truth about our fuel security, with only 8–9 days of reserves, not the 90 days we’re supposed to have under international agreements.

David calls out the inequities and speaks about why we need leaders with the political courage to face facts, not fantasy.

James is standing up — not just to talk, but to act. For water, for energy, and real change.
