North-Eastern Metropolitan Region

We wanted to pay tribute to Tim.

And in the studio is Ave Puglielli, the MP for the Greens in Northeastern Metro.

Hi, thank you.

I want you to tell us about Tim and what he achieved and, you know, the fact that right across the parliament in both houses, the tributes to him.

This use by a right-wing Labor government using legislation to protect a conservative union's fiefdom has certainly caused a backlash.

We hear now from Avi Pugliali, MLC for North Eastern Metro Region in the Victorian Upper House, speaking at the Defend RAFU rally on September 5th.

As has been mentioned, my name's Ave. I'm a Greens MP representing what's called the Northeastern Metro Region in the Upper House.

It's effectively the outer Northeastern and Eastern suburbs of Melbourne.
