Our team
Standing up for all Territorians
The Territory is an amazing place full of amazing people from diverse backgrounds and all walks of life.
We are entrepreneurial, free-spirited, resilient – and we love this place we call home.
My team and I are passionate about the Territory and about standing up for every single Territorian, no matter who they are or where they live.
Territory Labor intends to be a strong opposition over this term of Government.
We are focused on doing that constructively, collaboratively and always in the best interests of Territorians.
Territory Labor will learn from the lessons of the 2024 Territory election and take on board the strong messages that Territorians have sent us.
We do not intend to oppose for the sake of opposing or to criticise for the sake of criticising.
Territorians want and deserve much better than that.
They want meaningful and effective solutions to the challenges we face as a community and strong leadership to maximise the opportunities for this and future generations.
Labor commits to being part of the solution and working constructively to benefit all Territorians.
We intend to restore the faith of Territorians in the Labor Party, and we will work hard over the next three years to do that.
