Meet your Maranoa candidates The 2022 Australian federal election is set to be held on 21 May 2022. In the electorate of Maranoa, there are seven candidates running. The electorate of Maranoa is one of the largest in the country, spanning from Warwick to the western border of Queensland and up to Winton and Longreach. We’ve called out to all the candidates to tell us a bit about themselves and their policies. Meet the candidates on pages 14 & 15

Crs exit stage left Four councillors have now pulled out or declined to be involved with the Stanthorpe 150 re-enactment on Sunday 15 May 2022. The re-enactment will be held at the Stanthorpe Little Theatre and Drill Hall Park. A concept proposal from the Little The-

atre was tabled with the minutes from the S150ACAC meeting on 11 January 2022, considered by SDRC at its Ordinary Meeting on 27 January 2022. Cr Cynthia McDonald declined to be involved earlier this year, and since then Crs Jo

McNally, Marco Gliori, and Sheryl Windle have dropped out of the re-enactment. Cr McDonald stated she declined to be involved due to the travel and time required. She said her position “right on the other side of the Southern Downs” makes it hard to

travel for frequent rehearsals, and she also has teenage children to look after. “For me to go down there and back down there, is a four-hour trip,” she said. “Plus rehearsal time.” Full story page 4
