Despite appointing a shadow minister for government efficiency, Dutton also kept Adelaide Liberal MP James Stevens in his role as the shadow assistant minister for government waste reduction.

Your point about the independents is a good one; I was incredibly heartened by their emergence last election.

I would dearly love to see more of them (in fact I’ve seen placard wavers in my neck of the, previously independent-free, woods) and hope they have the resources to combat the incoming LNP bullshit!

Good to hear!

(That said, always remember to check of independents before voting. A few of them are recent Coalition/Labor party members who left over a certain issue, some are just as bad. Luckily I've seen more good than bad ones)
