Leanne Barrett

I am lucky to have been born and raised in the Wheatbelt, before finally settling in the Goldfields, in Kalgoorlie. As a mother, businesswoman and professional, I am deeply concerned about the state of our country’s democracy. But change is here, and it must come from minor parties breaking away from the corporate influence schemes of the major parties. As the Senate representative for the Australian Federation Party, I will advocate for core Australian values and innovative policies to build a country we can enjoy and be proud of.

I stand for the primacy of family and of parents’ influence in their children’s education, honouring the rich history of our First Nations people in ways that are practical and tangible, a healthcare system that funds natural medicines and nutrition education, initiatives based on robust data rather than corporate influence buying; and sustainable and alternative farming practices to support our communities and country as a whole
