Latest media release · 8 October 2026
“Oh, I brought this from home.”
Matthew De Angelis launches his independent campaign for the District of Sydenham under the banner of Competent Disruption, with published research, policy proposals and community projects in development.
Start with the public record.
Growth, Revenue, Return
Tax receipts, development contributions and local delivery records around Sydenham. Read the boundaries and claim register alongside the headline figures; the five-postcode total is not an electorate total.
Mega Profits = Mega Service
Large, profitable companies should provide reliable help when customers need it. Proposed standards for Victorian contracts and concessions, with banking standards pursued through a Commonwealth or Banking Code route.
A proposed standard, not a current entitlement or finding against a named company.
Clean Break. No Hangover.
Government should be able to replace a supplier without losing the skills, data or continuity needed to run the service. Read the proposed contract tests alongside the audit evidence and its limits.
The data profile
The privacy question is not only what one system records, but what separate records can reveal when combined. Existing safeguards and proposed changes remain distinct in the public source register.
I’m Fine, Thanks
You can trust a shop and still question how information from separate purchases and brands is joined. Read the article, inspect its sources, or examine the proposed retail privacy reform.
Streaming Stitch-Ups
Family plans, postcode policing and the extra charge hidden inside the household rule.
Super Growth Dividend
Cost of living
A voluntary, capped proposal for access to some super growth as cash. The public page explains the compounding trade-off, legal boundary and costing still required.
Needs Commonwealth law. Not an available financial product or an operating scheme.
Ask for the basis, not just the quote.
