So too Jobs Minister Martin Pakula who is the member for Keysborough but lives in the idyllic bayside suburb of Black Rock.
Pakula, who holds a range of ministerial positions, told The AJN, "The Jewish community has been well represented in the State Labor caucus in recent years by MPs such as Marsha Thompson, Philip Dalidakis, Paul Hamer and myself. Hopefully the community – and the party – sees some value in that."
