Paul to stand for mayoralty
Do you think Tamantha Paul would make a good mayor? Does she have enough experience?
The 23-year-old said she is considering challenging incumbent Andy Foster, who has endured a torrid first term so far and is reportedly already planning for the 2022 election.
Her motivation for standing comes from a desire to be more involved in council decision making.
“I’m a little bit frustrated about how much power and resources we have in doing substantial stuff,” Paul said.
“There are more ambitious and aspirational things I wanted to be able to do on the council.”
