An Ipswich you can afford to live in. Josh Addison has a plan to get us there, and it won't cost you a cent more in rates.
For the best part of a decade, Josh has worked in and around politics. In parliamentary offices, on campaigns, and alongside communities fighting to be heard. He's seen how the system works, and he's watched Ipswich get pushed to the back of the queue time and again. Ipswich is home. He's not willing to watch it get left behind, so he's putting his hand up to do something about it.
Not talking points. These are the things people in Ipswich bring up every single day, at the shops, at the school gate, over the back fence.
Ipswich is growing faster than almost anywhere in the country. That growth should be making life better, not more expensive. The Road to Recovery is ten commitments to get our city back on track, paid for by cutting waste, not by raising your rates. The first three are below. We'll reveal the rest as the campaign rolls out.
This plan grows with the community. Reckon we've missed something?
Tell JoshPick the three that matter most to you. We'll show you where Josh stands, and your picks help shape what the campaign fights for next.
Josh isn't on council yet, but he's already keeping count. Every pothole you report goes on our map and gets taken straight to council. The day Josh is elected, that 72-hour clock starts the moment you hit send.
No press releases, no spin. Just Josh out in the community, raising the issues you've told him about, in the places they're actually happening.
