Great response to our newsletter

Our four-page Cairns First newsletter has been very well received with the phones running hot on Thursday 28th when it appeared as an insert in the Cairns Post and the Port Douglas Gazette.

Most people have been really impressed with the the messages, the easy-to-read format, the information on candidates and polling booths, the colour and style, the cartoon and the advert promising Schier relief if you are suffering from Byrneout!

We don't have the advertising budget of Kevin Byrne and his Unity team so have to be distinctively different in what we do and the feedback has been very positive.

We have reinforced the "time for a change" message as that is the thing that people tell us over and over. They also comment on Kevin Byrne's arrogance, the inappropriate developments that have been approved, the loss of our tropical character and heritage and the poor planning around traffic, climate change impacts, and sporting facilities in the growth areas.

If you didn't get a newsletter - there seemed to be a lot of "slippage" with the paper's insertion machine - ring the Cairns 1st Campaign Office on 4032 2882 and we'll post you one; or call by to 393 Sheridan St, North Cairns.
