Louise Stokes (Greens)

I have a Bachelor of Communications and a Graduate Diploma in Secondary Education and have been teaching in secondary schools throughout Australia for over 30 years. I am passionate about equitable funding for public education, and access to theatre and the arts, especially in rural and regional communities. I am also passionate about ensuring that our young people can thrive in a safe and healthy environment.

This Federal election is a critical time for the Hunter electorate that has a very diverse economy and geographic spread from the beautiful Lake Macquarie to the Wollemi National Park, with productive farmland, famous Hunter vineyards, small and very large industry, including Power Stations and coal mines. The Hunter is on the cusp of the renewable energy revolution.

Solving the cost of living and housing crisis, creating new jobs in the transition for climate protection and access to good health care and quality free education are key goals for the Hunter electorate. It is time to vote for change: for an inclusive, representative Government.
