Why I'm standing

I have been a drug law reform advocate for 30 years, a business owner for 30 years, softball club president for 10 years and rugby league chairman for 10 years. At 70 years old, I may have a little wisdom.

About me

I have stood for Parliament several times. I speak publicly on drug law reform, which is not a popular topic, but I believe doing nothing about it is not an option.
