Former high-profile MP Rob Oakeshott is embracing a new career after graduating with a medical degree from the University of NSW. He was among the first students to complete their full undergraduate medical degree at the university's Rural Clinical School Campus in Port Macquarie, which opened in 2017.

Six years of fulltime university!

He was that rare thing, an honest politician. Could not abide the Nationals any longer so became an independent. Helped Gillard form a minority government, the best government since John Curtin’s back in WWII. THAT started as a minority government—two independents who could no longer stomach the inertia and mismanagement of Robert Menzies’ UAP government.
