I have just turned 47 years old, and have been self employed for most of my life, I attribute my business success to my honesty, my wife and I also run and self fund a Native Wildlife Sanctuary, we support children in need and live and work together running our two businesses 24/7.

I have spend over a decade studying politics and have been a state and federal candidate on several occasions, I enjoy helping those in need, and have fought for a fair go for many including far too many days in our less than satisfactory courts of supposed Justice.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLrdbzvpG4g This link is to a full video of who I am and what I stand for, with my running mate Dave Cook.

Hands on experience has taught me that justice is becoming the sole domain of the rich, and our common-law system is being watered down by government legislation, in favour of their own self preservation, rather than protecting the peoples best interests.

I have had over 14 years experience campaigning for our nations best interests, as such I have the education and knowledge to represent my fellow Aussies in an informed and professional manner, all the while promising from the heart that I will represent the electorate over any political or corporate interests.

Small businesses are being weighed down by red tape and excessive costs in favour of support for multinational and big business interests, coincidentally the same ones who fund our 2 party system of politics. Inequality and racial tensions are being fed by lack of government foresight, continued inappropriate statements and media manipulation.

Our hard earned Civil and Human rights are not protected and are being watered down by draconian legislation and uneducated attempts at social engineering, Accountability of government and their many departments does not exist, revenue collection is overriding genuine road safety at the same time police services are both underfunded and being used as government tools, rather than protectors of the community.

OUR ELECTIONS ARE BIASED IN FAVOUR OF 2 PARTY POLITICS, so are polls, the counting of votes and electoral law.

Democracy should be about the Freedom of choice of an informed electorate, yet we in Australia are being forced to have a preference for even those we do not know or in fact oppose.

Casting an educated and informed vote is clouded by lack of information, deliberate manipulation and false promise.

I have taken action in the Court of Disputed Returns on several elections in regards to the inadequate conduct issues, uncovering many thousands of missing votes, missing ballot papers and dozens of breaches of what little rights and protections remain.

“Even if I am not your ideal candidate, at least I am honest and will fight for your right to a free and informed vote”   

Our great land and infrastructure is being sold to foreign interests, our minerals & ores, our farm land and primary producers, even our water, all those interests our forefathers fought to protect, and the very same that should be protect in the best interests of our children.

“The Attack on the word protectionism, was the start to our spiral downwards as a nation”


Accountability is a lost treasure at all levels of society, Democracy should be paramount; Honesty is to be expected at all levels of our governance as should transparency.   

Government are elected to protect our best interests, not dictate to us, yet the divide between representative and their electorate continues in sharp decline, as does the power of our vote.

I stand for change, for accountability, to enforce honest democracy and to defend your rights and liberties, and those of our most vulnerable.

I will fight for these issue’s whether or not you support me, but I can do a hell of a better job with the peoples backing and the resources that would be available to me as an elected member.

I try to lead by example, so google my name, and see for yourself, or browse this site for a topic of personal interest, I have opened and self fund "Farm Direct" community markets, which lower the cost of living for the community and supports our farmers and producers.

I have held and spoken at hundreds of rallies, been involved with many exposes on national TV and Radio, stood up for your rights in the courts and represented many groups, organisations and animal welfare groups to ensure their voice is heard.

Whether by TV expose, some of south Australias largest rallies, by addressing parliament, talk back radio or straight into the courts, I will continue to fight for my community, and to demand and expose the truth, with your help let what I do become an example to any future aspiring representatives.

OUR VOTE IS TOO PRECIOUS NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY!

Dare we continue any longer to reward incompetence and false promise with our precious vote and the huge salary and perks that accompany it?

I WANT TO KEEP THE BASTARDS HONEST, BE YOUR HONEST VOICE!
