OAKESHOTT LAUNCHES 2019 COWPER BID

It may be three years until the next Federal Election, but Independent Rob Oakshott is already on the Cowper campaign trail.

The Former Lyne MP unsuccessfully ran against the National Party’s Luke Hartsuyker in July, leaving the seat marginal.

Mr Oakeshott held his first campaign meeting in Bellingen this week, noting climate change as one of his key focuses.
