Macca and Nevena talk to Tony Lupton, Independent Candidate for Prahran By-Election.

Lupton, a former barrister, said on Sunday his decision to contest the seat followed conversations involving “a range of people” in the community unimpressed by the choice between a Liberal or a Greens candidate.

“People know that I’ve got strong traditional Labor values, and Labor supporters and Labor-leaning people can have confidence that I would represent the traditional Labor Party values that they’re comfortable with,” he said.

Lupton first won the seat of Prahran in 2002, holding it for two terms before he was ousted in 2010 by Liberal Clem Newton-Brown.
