20.01.2022 The reintroduction of compulsory preferential voting means you need to number every box on the ballot paper for your vote to be valid. I urge all voters in Whitsunday to research the candidates and learn more about their policies and where they stand on the issues.

13.01.2022 It's election time. Be wary of false promises. Why do the major parties keep promising then not delivering when they have their chance during their term? Authorised by S. Mennie Katter's Australia Party 2/321 Sturt Street Townsville QLD... Spoken by Jenny Whitney See more
13.01.2022 I've had a busy morning traversing the Whitsunday electorate, from Cannonvale to Conningsby, Habana to Fitzgerald, and everywhere in between - As a long-term Whitsunday local, I love every corner of our region and am passionate about representing our community. As you vote today, remember that every square on the ballot paper must be numbered - I'd really appreciate your Number One vote!
11.01.2022 Giving power to Regional Queensland. Vote for your backyard. Vote 1 - JENNY WHITNEY, Katter's Australia Party.
09.01.2022 For me, my key priorities include: 1. Upgrading the Bruce Highway and Shute Harbour Road, both of which are key transport corridors within the electorate; 2. Working with the local tourism industry and broader community to do something special with Shute Harbour It’s been absolutely devastated by Cyclone Debbie, but like many of you, I believe it can be something really special again;... 3. Delivering the $2.1 million Proserpine Regional Cultural Precinct as outlined in the recently developed Proserpine Masterplan, incorporating an improved Entertainment Centre and library as well as a new art gallery; and 4. Delivering four more boat ramps along the Whitsunday Coast: In Mackay’s Northern Beaches, Cape Hillsborough, Midge Point and Dingo Beach. Vote for your backyard. If these things matter to you and your family, please share. Vote 1, Jenny Whitney next Saturday. Authorised by S.

08.01.2022 Amongst the chaos of this election campaign, this lighthearted production from ABC Tropical North is a terrific opportunity to learn more about the people and personalities behind the politics and parties - Well done to the ABC, and well done to my fellow candidates!

06.01.2022 My key priorities...
04.01.2022 Unlike the major parties, Katter's Australian Party is proudly based in North Queensland. As the campaign has progressed, we've seen the major parties focus solely on Brisbane and the Gold and Sunshine Coasts, with neither of them articulating a clear vision for North Queensland communities such as Whitsunday. I will be a strong, experienced voice for Whitsunday and will work tirelessly to deliver real outcomes for our region - Please share!
04.01.2022 Katter’s crime crackdown Katter’s Australian Party has announced its crime policy in a bid to eradicate the juvenile crime epidemic currently sweeping Townsvill...e and North Queensland. KAP State Leader Robbie Katter said a new approach was needed when dealing with juvenile criminals as the current measures put forward by the two major parties were clearly not working. The KAP approach is centred around Relocation Sentencing which would give magistrates the ability to effectively banish offenders from the community in which they committed the crime. They would be sent to an approved property in a remote location where they would work on the land to learn life skills to become contributing members of society. It has been highlighted time and time again that incarcerating children at Cleveland Youth Detention Centre does not pose as a deterrent for many of these wayward kids, Mr Katter said. The sad fact is that many of these kids do not have a stable home life, and instead commit crime knowing they will have a warm bed and a square meal in prison. They often have no stable role models and are easily influenced by older siblings or friends to commit further crimes. Our program would act as a circuit breaker to remove these children from negative influences, so they can rebuild their confidence and learn new skills with the view to steering them away from a life of crime. KAP Mundingburra Candidate Mike Abraham said the juvenile crime epidemic was spiralling out of control in Townsville and residents were sick of living in fear. The community is rightly fed up with not feeling safe in their own homes, and having to deal with both the emotional and financial toll of having the family vehicle stolen and often wrecked beyond repair. The police can only do so much. Here in Townsville there is a core group of offenders, who continue to commit crime. The amount of car thefts drops when they are incarcerated, and peaks as soon as they are let out. They are not being rehabilitated in Cleveland, or given a chance to embrace a new way of life. The current system is broken. Relocation Sentencing policy key points: * Magistrates have the option to impose a relocation sentence on repeat juvenile offenders. * The initial intake would be open to 20 male juveniles. * They would be sent to an approved remote property or station in North-West Queensland. * The initial intake would be taught to build their own accommodation and facilities, giving them skills to contribute to the wider community. * They would be living and working on an active property, learning skills including horsemanship, mustering, fencing, basic mechanics etc. Image shows The Katter’s Australian Party visit to Wonderland Station at Alice River to visit participants in Geoff and Vicky Toomby’s successful rural youth programs.

03.01.2022 It was great to talk to Campbell at the Daily Mercury yesterday about my vision for Whitsunday and Katter's Australian Party support for our local agriculture, small business and tourism industries - My experience as a local business operator and former Mayor will see me well positioned in the Queensland Parliament to stand up for our region and deliver positive outcomes for our community and our economy.
03.01.2022 Today, Whitsunday has a chance to make a difference. With the polls pointing towards a hung Parliament, this is our chance to have a strong, experienced and energetic representative standing up for our community and making sure we get our fair share. Unlike the major parties, Katter's Australian Party has a plan for Whitsunday and North Queensland. We will get our economy moving again, we will deliver new and improved infrastructure, and we will invest in improving rural education, health and emergency services. Today, I need your vote and your support to get Whitsunday back on track - Please share!
