DAVID HARRIS (One Nation)

David Harris says Flynn should be a national leader in next-generation energy, including nuclear power.

A Royal Australian Air Force veteran and business owner, Mr Harris is representing Pauline Hanson's One Nation in the Federal Election.

His campaign has focused on lowering the cost of living, improving access to affordable energy, and preserving local jobs.

Mr Harris said nuclear energy, especially small modular reactors, offers a clean, reliable, and safe option to support the grid and secure jobs in regional areas.

“Flynn is rich in energy heritage, and we must ensure our region remains at the forefront of Australia's future power strategy,” he said. “We already host key industries and workers with the technical skills to lead this transition.

“It's time to lift the outdated ban and have an honest conversation about nuclear power's role in delivering low-cost, emissions-free energy that works day and night. Flynn can be a national leader in next-generation energy.”

Mr Harris said people in the regions were working harder but getting less.

“Power bills, fuel, groceries, rent - everything is going up, but wages are flat and our rural families are feeling forgotten,” he said.

“We'll fight to bring living costs down by supporting Australian producers, cutting energy costs through better investment (including nuclear and renewables), and ending government waste that fuels inflation.

“Also, we will reduce the price of fuel by 26 cents per litre. Flynn deserves policies that put locals first - not inner-city ideology or foreign interests.”

When it comes to immigration, Mr Harris said regional communities like Flynn were feeling the pressure from unsustainable immigration levels.

“We support a pause and reset on immigration - focusing on highly skilled workers who genuinely meet our national needs, not just feeding cheap labour into big city economies while regional areas are left behind,” he said.

Mr Harris said housing affordability was “in crisis”.
