Sky News will broadcast a special episode of Paul Murray Live Our Town from the coastal region of Bundaberg, Queensland tonight at 8pm AEST. The new Our Town episode will highlight how the region has battled over the past two years through the hardships of lockdowns, border closures, trade tariffs and foreign worker shortages, to keep the economy afloat with its coal mines, aluminium smelters and farming. Paul Murray will catch up with Queensland Nationals Senator, Matt Canavan and Federal Member for Hinkler, Keith Pitt, to shed light on how the regions maintained their self-sufficiency during the pandemic. The special program will feature Kiri Braid from Macadamias Australia and Tina McPherson from the popular strawberry farm Tinaberries, as two examples of the produce-driven tourist sector that exists in Bundaberg, historically famous for its renowned Bundaberg Rum. The Our Town program will also feature Bundaberg local hero Sue Tasker, whose charity the Angels Community Group has setup the “Angel’s Mini Mart” to further assist the homeless and struggling families of the region. In partnership with Harvey Norman.
