VIA Twitter we hear the thoroughly predicted news that Andrew Barr is now the ACT Labor Leader and is on track to win a vote in the Legislative Assembly to be the Chief Minister.
Simon Corbell will be his deputy.
Greatly honoured to have been elected unopposed by Caucus as ACT Labor Leader. @SimonCorbell has been elected unopposed as Deputy Leader.

![Canberra’s woodchopping association – the Hall and District Axemen’s Club – is rebranding to Capital Country Woodchopping.
“We didn’t want to be exclusively a Canberra association and we deliberately left any gender-specific wording out in the new name,” says president Cheyanne Girvan, 32.
“We also went a different [way] to other associations under NSW by not including ‘association’ in our name.”
Four years ago the Hall and District Axemen’s club’s membership was 25.
Cheyanne says this name change will give the club the versatility to grow into other areas and on to greater things.
