Briefly outline your political stance on the below issues.
Energy. Your thoughts on renewable energy, coal burning, nuclear energy, The Paris Agreement etc
Net Zero mean zero money in your pockets. We will abandon the Net Zero pipe dream and go back to burning coal and gas. We are happy to look into an affordable Nuclear option if that is what the people wish to pursue. If coal is good enough for the rest of the world, it is good enough for us to use too. We would withdraw from the Paris Agreement
Transitioning to a cashless society
We do not support a cashless society.
Whether parents should have access to the full sexual education curriculum and be able to opt their children out or not
Yes parents can opt out. Parents have the final say on how their children are raised.
An Australian version of DOGE (department of government efficiency).
Yes!! We have identified $90 billion per year we can save in government waste and duplication.
Immigration
Needs to be dramatically reduced until we can catch up on housing, medical services, infrastructure etc. People who overstay their VISAs need to be deported. We should only be bringing people to this country who will embrace our way of life, not try to change it. Either support the country you live in, or live in the country you support
Biological men in women’s sports
No

As a farmer, I am pragmatic, adaptable and resourceful. As an elected member of Mt Barker Council, I have the negotiation and political skillset to represent the people of Mayo and ensure that they are no longer left behind by a government that has ignored their needs for years.
