Whether it's magic cufflinks, grass turf wars, taxi fares, banana pests, political prawns, or superyacht flower bills, you are bound to find something interesting and inspiring.
From Chapter 1:
" Australians considering a Parliamentary career should have confidence that a lot is achievable by standing up. Yes, it's easy to go with the flow in Canberra. It's a lot harder to put your head above the parapet and maybe get shot at. If you're not seduced by the 'leave everything to the market' and 'governments should keep out of everything' brigade, you can make a real difference."
