Regional Australia is under siege by the Albanese government, and, for the next election, the Nationals have endorsed strong candidates who'll stop the Labor rot and fight for our fair share. Alison Penfold, our candidate for Lyne, is a local champion from Hannam Vale and Taree, and she's worked at the highest levels of agriculture, industry and government. Alison Penfold is fighting hard to improve roads, telecommunications and access to better health care.

In the mighty Hunter Valley, our candidate is local business leader and former registered nurse, Sue Gilroy. Sue Gilroy has a vision for cost-of-living relief, cheaper energy, and she will proudly back our resource sector and all the jobs that depend on it in the Hunter Valley.

In Parkes, we have the former Gunnedah mayor, Jamie Chaffey, a hard-working, former business owner who will be a powerful voice for those diverse communities spanning from Moree to Dubbo and onto Broken Hill. He's determined to travel the Western Plains and continue the Nationals' great legacy of delivering for Parkes.

In the Northern Territory, Lisa Siebert is leading the charge in Lingiari. A Federal Police officer, Lisa Siebert is committed to taking local action on crime and putting an end to Labor's waste in the territory. A vote for these proud Nationals candidates will continue to help us turf out a bad government and bring some common sense back to Canberra.
