Independent recruiter's view on Labor's hand-picked Transport Secretary.
Sydney Trains performance is heading in the wrong direction.
Sydney deserves performance, not promises.
#nswpol
The debacle on the M4 yesterday was unacceptable.
The Roads Minister waited until after a leisurely lunch to even acknowledge the issue.
The Metro South West conversion will now take at least 24 months to deliver.
Labor promised it would take just 12 months, with much fanfare in August 2023 and again in September 2024.
They consistently fail to deliver for commuters.

A NSW Liberals and Nationals Government would initiate a major inner-city renewal by rezoning around Erskineville, Macdonaldtown, Newtown and St Peters train stations, to create up to 15,000 new homes with extra facilities and infrastructure.

“The travelling public have been sold a lemon by Chris Minns, Jo Haylen and John Graham. Their reviews have now been exposed as nothing more than PR exercises to distract from their inability to deliver real results for commuters,” - @natwardmlc
The highest number of incidents during peak hours caused by factors such as infrastructure defects since 2014 was recorded in May last year at 568, and they remain high this year, new figures show. smh.com.au/national/nsw/the-…
After two reviews and three reports, this is the state of the Sydney Trains network under Labor.
Commuters were promised improvements—but instead, they’ve been sold a lemon.
Labor’s Metro Debacle in under a minute.
All because of Chris Minns’ terrible decisions.
❌Metro West: now facing a possible $5 billion blowout.
❌Metro South-West: could be up to 18 months late.
❌ Metro Western Sydney Airport: 12 months delay

One of the RTBU’s demands is the installation of drivers’ cabins on metro trains. (The trains are driverless) theguardian.com/australia-ne…
Only Labor could order a review into why trains are late, and then deliver the review late as well.
Second review into train reliability in 25 months and it is already a month late #nswpol

I and the NSW Coalition are sorry for the deep hurt many Indian Australians feel after a federal senator’s offensive comments last week.
We met Indian Australian leaders today to hear from them and to reaffirm our support, embrace and admiration for their community.

Chris Minns and Labor have now walked back their support for a “right to hunt”.
But otherwise they still support the Shooters’ hunting bill - establishing a taxpayer-funded NRA-style lobby group - in a dodgy deal for support for unrelated government legislation.

With the Premier today confirming there will be no new stations for Metro West, the closest Labor got to delivering anything was a press release and a Lego set.

Chris Minns must explain whether he doled out taxpayer money to prop up his precarious minority government.
His office clearly breached the grant guidelines and then tried to cover it up.
This is dodgy pork barrelling at its worst.

Things got a little heated when Mark Levy questioned NSW Roads Minister Jenny Aitchison on the multibillion-dollar M6 motorway that continues to be delayed. 🍿

The metro line has changed how people get around Sydney
Since Chatswood to Sydenham (opposed by Labor in opposition) was opened a year ago, almost 70 million trips have been taken on the M1 line.
Minns swaps blue for red—because it’s easier to change the colour of the fence than to build what’s behind it.

An independent recruiter wouldn’t have shortlisted Labor’s hand‑picked Transport Secretary.
His inexperience is costing commuters time, taxpayers’ money – and nothing’s improving for transport in Sydney.

The only winners of this Government's transport agenda is the hand-picked Secretary and the rail union.
Projects cancelled, no new investment and savage cuts to staff.
Under Labor, it’s union first, commuters second.
