Toowoomba
Don't miss out on the headlines from Toowoomba. Followed categories will be added to My News.
I, like many people who live in this safe city, am against the location of the proposed Wellcamp detention centre and I have lobbied our federal member Garth Hamilton for his support in the matter.

Toowoomba residents have kept themselves safe, and we want to stay that way.

The decision will be left to Prime Minister Scott Morrison, and I think that he should know of any opposition from this area.
I am am calling on Toowoomba residents to call your federal member.
