Mr Rohan Boehm, Narrabri, has announced he will contest the March 28 state election in Barwon, standing as the People’s Voice for Barwon.
Mr Boehm has been prominent in the People for the Plains anti coal and coal seam gas movement in the past year.
“I am standing because over a number of years now, the People have asked me to represent them and I believe now is the time to take a stand. My only pledge is that the voice of the people is my call to action.
“I’ve travelled and worked across the electorate in my own agribusiness advisory company for 15 years and in the cotton industry for eight years, and these days, what I hear most is the issue of water security.”
Mr. Boehm said the ‘People of Barwon demand their voice, and their vote, counts in the New South Wales parliament.’
“They want their vote to be valued and not lost in party politics.”
