THUMBS UP
Thumbs up to the Emergency Services volunteers who worked tirelessly over the weekend to save property from fires in our electorate in catastrophic conditions, and a particularly big shout out to crews who are continuing to work on fires in the Warrumbungle Shire.
We have already seen houses, machinery, stock and crops lost and we expect further losses to become clear over the coming days.
Emergency Services do an outstanding job and pass on my sincere thanks for their service.
