What's-his-name is the new member for Page


So you think the new member for Page in northern NSW is a bloke called Hogan. Well, think again. 
Seems the bloke is also known in some circles as Hutchinson. 
Furthermore, there a bit of doubt about where he was born ... was it regional NSW or regional South Australia?



















Hogan told The Daily Examiner (2/9/13) he was born in a small town in regional South Australia.
