the westernmost march of the invasive species and heightened fears that they
would use the region’s waterways to spread even further across Australia.

To talk further, Leader of the National Party and the Shadow Minister for
Agriculture, David Littleproud MP, joins Mike Jeffreys.

The Daily Telegraph's Investigative reporter John Rolfe joins Mike to discuss his recent article revealing the dire situation in Box Hill, Sydney.

Despite promises made by the NSW government in 2018, no progress has been made in building the four public schools desperately needed in the area. Residents face lengthy commutes to pick up their children from distant schools.

The lack of essential infrastructure, including roads and playgrounds, highlights a failure of both political sides and government levels to support the community's growth.

Urgent action is needed to avoid a 15-year delay in critical infrastructure development. However, instead of cooperation, public and private interests seem to be locked in a standoff.
