Why has former State Liberal Leader Robert Doyle and former Labor Party Secretary Nicholas Reece teamed up for a tilt at town hall?
Hosted by:
September 9, 2016 @ 3:15 am - 5:00 am
Is this the end of party partisanship as we know it, a new era of co-operative politics? Or is it just two political pragmatists teaming up to corner the vote for Town Hall?
The first policy promise of Team Doyle was that they would not be accepting donations from property developers in this election. What are they planning to do next?
Melbourne Forum member, policy wonk, political analyst and regular Melbourne Forum guest speaker Nick Reece will discuss all this and more on Thursday 8 September.
Nick is also keen to hear from Melbourne Forum members on what they see as the big issues for the City of Melbourne election in October.
Don't miss out on the opportunity to let this councillor candidate know what issues need to be address for our city!
