Host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with LNP candidate Leon Rebello, a former ministerial staffer who has worked at KWM as a solicitor for the past six years, about his upbringing and the values his family instilled in him, how work as a practitioner in foreign investment has shaped his views about the role of government, and the headline issues and challenges he is hearing on the ground from Gold Coast constituents.

Rebello also discusses the importance of having all generations represented in our nation’s capital, how his legal background will aid him if elected as a member of Parliament, and what excites him about the future of Australia.
