Sinopsis

John MacKenzie chats with Brett Olds, CRC Councillor for Division 9, about the convenient timing regarding the early departure of Mayor Bob Manning and the introduction of a new mayor and deputy quite close to an election. The vote to replace the Mayor without an election fell just within the limits of the law and was chosen by Cairns Regional Council last week, with the unity team's majority vote elevating Terry James to the top position. The replacement for the Deputy, as well as the new division 4 councilor (needed to replace Terry James's seat), will also not require an election and will instead be chosen by the council. Cr. Olds said that it gives The Unity Team an unfair advantage as incumbents in the upcoming election in 2024.
