DUNCAN PEGG

I join with Lindsey, Graham and the Pegg family in expressing my deep sadness over the loss of my friend, Duncan Pegg.

He battled cancer with incredible bravery and grace.

I know this news will be felt particularly in Duncan’s electorate of Stretton.

He was the common thread that united so many groups in his community. He loved them. And they loved him.

Duncan’s work in the parliament earned respect across the political divide.

He showed politics could be a force for good.

It was an honour to call him my friend.
