To the Cowper Community
The time for change is NOW. I’m ready to take on this corrupt, overreaching government and fight for every Australian—especially here in Cowper, one of the poorest regions in our nation, crippled by heartless government policies that drain our wallets and crush our dreams. Are you fed up with working long hours only to see your hard-earned income vanish to taxes? Sick of struggling to afford a home, put food on the table, or keep up with skyrocketing costs? We can’t wait any longer—we deserve better, and we deserve it today.
As a small business owner, I feel the squeeze firsthand—endless red tape, soaring fuel prices, and costs that keep climbing. But I’m not afraid of hard work, and I know Cowper’s spirit is stronger than the bureaucrats trying to hold us back. We urgently need everyday Australians to rise up and rebuild this broken system. It’s time to ditch out-of-touch career politicians who’ve never faced our struggles.
The Nationals back heavy regulations and taxes that hit our rural communities hardest, while the Teals push costly green schemes that pile more burdens on working families. Libertarians are different—we’re fighting to let YOU keep your money. Lower taxes, less government meddling, so your hard work stays in your pocket, not Canberra’s. In Cowper, where government neglect has left us scraping by, this change can’t come soon enough.
As a husband and father of two, I’m driven to provide for my family and create a better Australia for all families—starting right here, right now.
Join me TODAY to build an Australia where hard work pays off, families flourish, and freedom reigns. The time to act is NOW—let’s return Cowper to greatness, prosperity, and liberty!
Yours in Liberty,
Paul Templeton
Candidate for Cowper
