Joel Stevenson is proud to stand as the One Nation candidate for Dickson, bringing a wealth of real-world experience and a deep commitment to the local community. A longtime resident of Kallangur for 14 years, Joel understands the challenges faced by families, workers and small businesses in the area. With a background as a maintenance industrial electrician, he has witnessed firsthand the decline of Australian manufacturing and is determined to fight for policies that rebuild industry, secure jobs and lower the cost of living.

“For too long, we’ve watched our manufacturing sector shrink while energy prices continue to rise. It’s time to take back control of our industries, invest in affordable and reliable energy and bring back jobs that support Australian families,” Joel says.

Over the past 25 years, Joel has seen the erosion of local industries due to bad government policy, overregulation and an obsession with net-zero goals that have driven energy prices sky-high. He believes that Australia must restore its competitive edge by prioritising investment in low-cost, reliable energy solutions such as coal and nuclear power.

“Without affordable power, we can’t rebuild our industries, we can’t create secure, well-paying jobs and we certainly can’t compete with nations that are using their natural resources wisely,” he says.

Joel is also passionate about infrastructure and ensuring that local projects deliver real benefits for the people of Dickson. He advocates for better roads, transport links and community facilities to support the region’s growing population.

Beyond politics and work, Joel enjoys fishing and water sports, activities that keep him connected to the outdoors and reinforce his belief in balancing economic progress with environmental preservation. He supports common-sense environmental policies that protect Australia’s natural resources while allowing industries and communities to thrive.

Joel is committed to being a strong voice in federal parliament for the people of Dickson, ensuring that their needs and aspirations are represented at the national level. He is standing with One Nation to fight for policies that lower the cost of living, put Australian workers first and restore the nation’s economic independence.

“This election is about taking back control from out-of-touch career politicians and ensuring the future of our communities. I’m standing with One Nation to put Australians first and get Dickson the representation it deserves,” he says.
