Martin Cameron MP
Member for Morwell
I’m a Traralgon boy, born and bred. I’m a plumber by trade, ran my own small business for 20 years, and I have had a lifelong involvement in the Traralgon Football Netball Club.
One thing I’m not, is a career politician. I come to this role as a genuine community advocate and I put my hand up for this role because we need a strong voice in State Parliament to stand up for the Latrobe Valley.
I come from a strong family that values and rewards hard work and enterprise. As a former small business owner, I know what it takes to create jobs in our community and the value of young people learning a trade. Life is tough for tradies and all businesses currently, with shortages of workers, endless government red tape and a lack of understanding of our region by decision makers in Spring Street.
It’s clear too many politicians think Victoria ends at Pakenham and country people are just not on the radar for city politicians. That’s why I’m determined to fight hard to stand up for the people of the Valley and make sure we all get our fair share.
