"They're just very difficult people to get into the research process," he said. Mr Koukoulis is now the UAP candidate in the Sydney seat of Watson, and Mr Khatib is a member of the UAP backing his campaign. Mr Khatib said that, among the Muslims he knows, "there's a lot of talk going around about the UAP". "When you have a populist party talking against that and talking about freedom of the individual and freedom from lockdowns, etc., I'm not that surprised that … there may be some people within the Muslim community who would actually be supportive," he said. They were quite heavy-handed.

Our role is in ensuring people have accurate information about the electoral process,” the AEC said on Twitter. States will always have the power to make decisions on how to respond to a health emergency,” she said. When it comes to spam text messages, Palmer and Kelly are repeat offenders.

I’m totally over the election, I don’t really care who wins but I would definitely love to see Labor lose Fowler and Parramatta. What an opportunity they had to increase diversity with quality local candidates but instead, they parachute Kristina Keneally and Andrew Charlton in.

You can have an awesome liberal guy in one electorate and a dud in another …same as Labor …in my personal view, we have 3 out of 7 good candidates in our area…a great one nation person, a good national and a UAP who would be good in the senate to watch people and make them behave …the smartest and best qualified goes in spot 1…etc…in an electorate next to ours a Labor person might be the best, or a liberal Democrat , independent etc etc…just read their statement on their pages and identify with them in order and choose… Don’t waste your vote….it’s easy to click onto the people running in your electorate and have a read of each ones website….put in your post code in the electorate search …takes a few minutes for each. But the frothing 'how to vote' people lost me on entry with their 'in your face' pamphlets and short spiels. put them personally 1- 7 on the green form and for the party they are in 1-6 on the white form for the senate…..put your favourite people on the green form who will make government and your favourite guard dog parties in order on the white form….they will keep an eye on the ones who govern by passing or blocking legislation.

Craig Kelly is out: From the fringes of the Liberal Party to the UAP ... (SBS)

For the first time since 2010, the outspoken MP will no longer be the member for Hughes.

The electorate has voted in a Liberal candidate at every election since 1996. After the move, Mr Kelly was thrust back into the public eye when he spammed Australians with messages about adverse vaccine reactions in September 2021. And government responses including lockdowns and vaccination mandates fractured the relationship between Mr Kelly and his former Party. In the last election, it was by a margin of 9.9 per cent and has been a safe Liberal seat. Challenger and winner Ms Ware will replace him. The MP spruiked drugs like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, claiming they were useful in preventing or treating COVID-19. It later saw him permanently banned from Facebook. In 2019, the UAP candidate only secured 2.5 per cent of votes in Hughes. While Mr Kelly pushed the party's vote up in this election, Mr Kelly, backed by the UAP, could not put up a tight fight. On the UAP website, Mr Kelly said he had become “disillusioned by the Liberal Party during his time in office" and the pandemic response had "deeply eroded his faith in Australia’s government, as he saw, in real time, our freedoms being ripped away". He initially entered politics as a member of the Liberal Party and was elected into the House of Representatives in 2010 in the seat of Hughes. But since his last success in 2019, the country has dealt with a pandemic. By the end of February 2021, Mr Kelly had quit the Liberal Party to become an independent MP. After a dicey career in the House of Representatives, Craig Kelly has been voted out of his seat of Hughes after more than a decade in the job. He's been described as a "menace" by the Labor Party, has been dressed down by Prime Minister Scott Morrison, and was last month egged by a member of the public.
