I'm passionate about social justice, the environment, animal welfare and a future for young people. All areas covered one way or another by the Liberal Party.
However there are other areas that I think are important, road safety being one of them. In this area I very much like the work of RoadPeace. An area of neglected safety on our roads is drains and manhole covers. For those on 2 wheels these can be lethal when wet. It would be possible for these to be coated with an anti-slip dressing thus preventing hundreds of accidents every year. It always amazes me vast sums are spent on building new roads when proper maintenance cannot be carried out on the present ones.
