Kate Washington, the Member for Port Stephens, was involved in a regrettable incident where she declared the Medowie Ambulance Station open without authorization.
In a video that was unprofessional and condescending in tone, she claimed that the station had not been opened due to a lack of political activity from the opposing party.
She also trespassed onto the property and tampered with the station by tying a ribbon across the front, unofficially inaugurating it.
Critics were quick to point out that Washington had no authority to open the station, and that her actions constituted both trespassing and tampering with public property.
Kate Washington disabled the comment section on the video, apparently anticipating potential criticism for her controversial political stunt.
