Darren Nugent is Pauline Hanson’s One Nation candidate for the Northern Territory Senate, stepping forward to restore strength, honesty and accountability to a region long neglected by Canberra. A proud Territorian and passionate advocate for real representation, Darren is determined to fight for the voices of everyday NT residents and lay down the foundations for One Nation’s rise in the Top End.

A former member of the Country Liberal Party, Darren left the old establishment behind after seeing firsthand how ordinary Australians were being let down by career politicians. Now, as media liaison for the Northern Territory Gold Prospectors Association, he actively champions local issues and understands the frustration felt by those working hard but getting nowhere under current leadership.

With years of experience raising three children, Darren brings backbone, compassion and unwavering determination. He has lived in Humpty Doo for over six years and is deeply committed to rebuilding the community spirit that defines the NT.

Darren’s vision includes a revamp of the NT education system. He advocates a “triangulation model” of learning where students, teachers and parents all take responsibility. He supports empowering principals to manage discipline locally, not through the Chief Minister’s office. “We must let our educators teach, not manage behavioural crises.”

He also wants more transparency and real parliamentary accountability, where constituents feel heard and respected, not ignored. Darren believes in restoring the ANZAC spirit: courage, sacrifice and unity for a better Australia.

He is running not to climb a political ladder, but to restore trust in leadership and give Territorians a voice that refuses to be silenced.

Benjamin Craker is a dedicated tradesman and proud Australian who understands the struggles facing everyday workers and families in the Northern Territory. Working FIFO, Ben engages daily with workers from all walks of life, listening to their concerns and discussing practical solutions to improve their lives. His hands-on experience in the workforce gives him a clear understanding of what needs to change to restore prosperity, security and fairness for all Australians.

Ben is deeply concerned about the skyrocketing cost of living and is committed to fighting for real relief. He strongly advocates for reducing fuel prices, making electricity affordable and implementing policies that ease financial burdens on families and businesses. “Australians should not be struggling to afford the basics when we are one of the most resource-rich nations in the world,” he says. “We have the coal, gas and minerals to power our own nation affordably, yet we’re paying the price for short-sighted policies.”

Crime remains one of the most pressing issues in the Northern Territory and Ben believes in strong measures to restore safety to the streets. He supports crime prevention programs such as boot camps, tougher sentencing and stricter bail laws. He is determined to tackle the root causes of crime by creating better opportunities for those facing disadvantage, ensuring that hard work is rewarded and law-abiding citizens feel safe in their own communities.

Ben also recognises the the federal government’s staggering trillion-dollar debt and is committed to responsible fiscal management. Debt repayments at $50billion a year will soon outstrip what we spend on health and education. He is pushing for a fairer taxation system that ensures multinational corporations pay their fair share, while advocating for better use of the Territory’s abundant natural resources to generate real economic benefits for the people who live and work there.

He is also a strong advocate for immigration reform, arguing that reducing immigration is necessary to ease the pressure on critical infrastructure, housing affordability and the environment. “We need policies that put Australians first, ensuring that homeownership is within reach for everyday people and that our communities have the infrastructure and services they need to thrive.”

In his free time, Ben enjoys motorcycling, bushcraft, scuba diving and backpacking. He is deeply frustrated by the mismanagement of Australia’s vast resources, which has left Australians facing rising costs and economic uncertainty. “We live in a country rich with coal, LNG, uranium, lithium and other minerals, yet we’re in massive debt and struggling. It doesn’t add up and I’m determined to change that,” he says.

Benjamin Craker is ready to stand up for the people of Solomon and fight for real change in the Northern Territory. With a focus on affordability, infrastructure and safety, he is committed to ensuring the Territory and Australia as a whole are set on the right path for future generations.
