Look 'ere! It's the Saffin-Cansdell dog fight
The Daily Examiner today reported on the dispute between Federal Labor's Janelle Saffin and NSW Nationals' Steve Cansdell as to who exactly arranged a meeting between canegowers and the NSW Minister for Roads, with the Federal Minister for Primary Industries also attending.

On the Lower Clarence you already have a reputation for running to the media and taking credit for funding obtained through the local community's own lobbying efforts.
The fact of the matter is that Ms. Saffin has been steadily delivering for the Page electorate since her election in November 2007.
Just yesterday she confirmed a hefty funding boost for Grafton District Meals-on-Wheels, which provided more than 42,000 meals to aged and incapacitated people in the Clarence Valley district in 2007.
