The Liberals have dumped John Hsu as their candidate for the seat of Calwell after it was discovered that he owns a brothel in Frankston that he neglected to tell the party about, but that doesn’t mean that Hsu has given up hope of getting elected. Hsu ran this advertisement in the Hume Leader newspaper last week, which emphasised that he’s been a small business owner for the last 10 years (just doesn’t mention the industry). The advertisement has similar policies to those of the Liberal Party, but running as an independent obviously allows Hsu some freedom — he promotes himself as a motoring enthusiast and wants a safer neighbourhood, with “less fines but more safety and security!”. He’s also promising jobs and growth in posts on Facebook.
