Born in Roma, Queensland, and raised in Central Queensland, Brendan Kross embodies the values of hard work, resilience, and community spirit that define regional Australia. With 22 years of service as a NSW police officer, Brendan has seen firsthand the impact of government policies on families, businesses, and communities. These experiences have fueled his determination to fight for real change and stand up for everyday Australians.

Brendan is passionate about preserving and strengthening the Australian way of life. His career in law enforcement gave him deep insight into the challenges people face—from rising living costs to ensuring family safety. He understands the pressures that come with everyday life and is committed to advocating for policies that prioritize Australians. “We need leaders who aren’t afraid to stand up for what’s right, even when it’s tough,” Brendan says. “I’ll fight to protect our national sovereignty, support small businesses, and invest in infrastructure that strengthens our regions.”

For the past eight years, Brendan has served as a Scout Group Leader with Scouts NSW and Scouts Queensland, mentoring young Australians and helping them build confidence and life skills. “Our youth are the future of this country. I’m committed to ensuring they have the opportunities and support they need to thrive,” he says.

As a proud Queenslander, Brendan stands with One Nation to rebuild Australia’s industries, create secure jobs, and ensure a brighter future for all Australians. He is particularly focused on addressing youth unemployment through apprenticeships and vocational training, securing affordable and reliable energy, and building vital water infrastructure to support Queensland's growth.

Brendan is not a career politician; he’s a dedicated community member who has walked in the same shoes as his constituents. He believes it’s time to restore accountability to government and amplify the voices of everyday Australians in Parliament. Brendan is asking for your support to deliver meaningful change for Blair.
