Millswood Station to re-open
There should be an announcement this week about the re-opening of the Millswood Train Station. That was a promise by the outgoing Labor Government. I expect that commitment to be honoured. It was interesting that during the recent election campaign the Liberal Party refused outright to re-open the station. I suspect it was due to the fact that it was a former Liberal Government that closed the station and they didn't want to change their mind. It was a very costly decision. I believe that this stance by the Liberals cost them 100s of votes in the Ashford electorate. If the Liberals had supported the re-opening of the station, then the result in Ashford would have been much closer. It takes a strong person (or party) to admit that they were wrong. The Liberals wouldn't change their mind. I hope that come the next election, the Liberals don't reverse Labor's re-opening of the station.
