Donna Pike to contest Page for Trumpet of Patriots

Ms Pike, who has lived in the electorate for over 40 years, holds a Certificate 4 in leadership and management, and has worked in real estate sales and as a wedding celebrant.

She has also served as a Justice of the Peace.

Ms Pike ran for Mayor of Coffs Harbour in 2021, and for One Nation in the 2022 Federal Election, receiving 5.4 percent of the first preference vote in Page.

She told NOTA she has lost faith in Australia’s current political leadership and the “promises they fail to keep”.

If elected, Ms Pike said she will call for Australia to cut ties with the World Health Organisation, World Economic Forum and the United Nations, as she believes “unelected authoritarian globalist groups should not be telling us what to do”.

“We have the people we elect and they should decide what happens in our country,” she said.

Ms Pike wishes to “end harmful fake climate change 2030 targets” and claims Australia is “decimating our environment under fake climate agendas with solar panel fields and wind farms”.

“I am running in this election to get rid of the corruption and to help turn our government into the government we need and deserve, a government that listens and works for the people, instead of ignoring them,” she said.

Ms Pike lists affordable housing, student debt, and healthcare access as other key issues for the electorate.

If elected, she has pledged to donate one third of her yearly wage back into the Page electorate to “assist those living in crisis with a focus on youth suicide programs, domestic violence programs, mental health and homelessness”.
