Hello, I’m Russell Broadbent, Independent Member for Monash.
I’ve always stood for the people I represent — not party lines, not special interests. Right now, we need real leadership.
That’s why I’m focused on the things that matter most to our community. These include policies that:
I’m fighting to secure $60 million in federal funding to get the new Warragul Hospital underway — because healthcare in Gippsland must meet the needs of our growing population.
I believe aged care should be built on dignity — for both our elders and the carers who support them. Farmers and small businesses are the backbone of our economy.
I back policies that reduce red tape and support our farmers to propagate and produce.
On energy, I’m practical. We need affordable, reliable electricity — using the abundant resources Australia already has and ensuring community consultation.
I support open, honest dialogue about health freedom — because Australians deserve informed consent and bodily autonomy.
And most of all, I believe in integrity in government.
That means standing firm on principle, even when it’s unpopular.
I’m Russell Broadbent — and I’ll keep working for you, your family, and the future of Monash.
