Matthew Grinter, Candidate for Oakleigh

Matthew Grinter is Family First's candidate for Oakleigh. A resident of Oakleigh for over 40 years, Matthew is a recently retired Customer Service Officer for the Railways after 35 years' service. He understands the issues that are affecting our society today.

Matthew is standing because he is concerned about the moral decline in our society, facilitated by Socialist and anti-family policies from the major and minor political parties in Victoria. He has been actively involved in pro-life/anti-abortion advocacy for 26 years and has seen Victoria's abortion laws and other laws pertaining to the protection of human life get progressively worse.

Matthew is also concerned about freedom of religion and conscience, supporting families, protecting children, responsible economic management and reliable and affordable energy.

Matthew is asking for all people of faith or goodwill for your support to send a strong Family First voice to Parliament. One that will stand for the protection of human life, families and freedom.
