Listening to this tribute of John Spender - Allegra Spender’s dad in our Australian parliament - am so proud to be Australian
Wishing a long life to our member of Wentworth , Allegra Spender on the passing of her dad the Hon John Spender who recently passed - MP of north sydney and ambassador to France, Portugal and Morocco - serving Australia, his family and people around him
In parliament John stood for Courtesy, Originality and standing for something
“I have tried to do my duty - no-one should do more , no-one should do less “
Allegra, I wish you and your family a long life. It’s what we say to a family member whose loved one has passed. For as long as you are alive.... your Dads memory will live on ....
⭐️He was courteous , original, and stood for something
⭐️He was a gentleman - played the ball not the person
⭐️He thought differently and interested in alt views
⭐️He was proudest of the times that cost him
Know that it will be over and be prepared
⭐️He has left a legacy - long life to a Allegra and family
