Welcome
Hello and welcome,
I’m Josh, your Federal Member of Parliament for Macnamara.
This website is set up to help you access government services, information or support. But if there’s something you cant find here, please call my office on (03) 9534 8126 or send me an email – josh.burns.mp@aph.gov.au
Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, governments have supported Australians get through this crisis.
Government must also play a role in rebuilding the economy and getting lives back on track.
That’s why I’m focused on supporting and creating jobs, affordable housing, better health services and a more sustainable future.
Together, we can build a fairer society and stronger economy.
Take care of yourself and loved ones
Josh

@southmelbournemarket has reopened after being shut for a deep clean.
Our local businesses and community have done everything asked of them and for that we are very grateful.

And do yourself a favour, grab some of @south_melbourne_seafoods oysters with a solid dash of Tabasco for good health.

Hope everyone's enjoying the sunshine today and a big thank you for continuing to support our local businesses.
There's been several more exposure sites added to the Docklands, Southbank and South Melbourne areas as well as at the Exhibition Centre. The full list can be found in my bio.
If you've been there or know someone who has during the specified time below, please follow the health advice.
Stay safe, enjoy your long weekend.

Chronicles used to be a beloved St Kilda bookstore.
But like so many shops on Fitzroy Street, it was forced out by high rent and sat vacant for years.
But now Justin and Loc have opened @chronicles.bar in its place - a great spot for locals to grab a drink after work or on the weekend.
So stop by and say hi. And wherever you go this weekend - say thanks to our local businesses for their sacrifices in the past fortnight.
Get on the beers locally this weekend.

Allowing a three-year old girl to develop untreated pneumonia in Australian detention isn't about national security and it's not about keeping our borders safe.
It's just cruel.
And with a stroke of a pen, the Government can put this cruelty to an end and let this family go home to Biloela.
