The Minister of Regional Development and Manufacturing was joined by family, friends and ‘Red Army’ of volunteers to celebrate at the Gladstone Yacht Club
During his speech, M Butcher was joined by volunteer Shelly Holzeimer who made a celebratory ‘shoey’, receiving loud cheers from up to 100 supporters
« The people of Gladstone have spoken loud and clear, they want a Labor government here in Gladstone, » he said
« It is hoped that we will keep the government of Queensland, whether it is by majority, hopefully, or by a minority government, we will have to find a solution
« I’m proud to be part of a government that has kept Queensland safe and the people of Gladstone here have basically gone about their normal business without having to worry too much about COVID. »
After two weeks of early voting and on polling day, Mr. Butcher said it was his most trying campaign to date
« It was very demanding on all of my family and our friends, but we survived »
Just minutes after his statement, Mr. Butcher said he looked forward to the next four years, with jobs and health care being the top priorities for the electorate.
« Now we have to recover, we have to find jobs for the people here in Gladstone and we know this is a big deal, » he said.
“We know that health is important to us and now we have the materials we need to keep doing it.
“Like I said in our debate, I want to make sure that Mater Hospital is part of us to come up with a stage four hospital with an intensive care unit, so that’s essential for us here. »
« Our commitment of $ 34 million for new school buildings and the modernization of our school infrastructure is also important
« Our announcement during the $ 10 million election campaign to support businesses that want to start up when people can start traveling and entering Gladstone for these projects is important »
M Butcher thanked his army of supporters and everyone in Gladstone who voted for him
“With 73%, I think it’s almost one of the safest seats, if not the safest seat around tonight,” he said.
