Trumpet of Patriots has announced Joseph O’Conner as the party’s candidate for the New South Wales seat of Lindsay in the upcoming Federal Election.​

Joseph O’Conner brings a wealth of experience in mental health and counselling to his candidacy. He is a registered practicing member of the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia, he works within the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) to support clients’ well-being and holds a Bachelor of Psychological Studies and a Graduate Diploma in Counselling from Western Sydney University.​

The Lindsay electorate, encompassing suburbs such as Penrith, St Marys and Emu Plains faces several challenges. Housing affordability and homelessness are pressing concerns, with 70.8% of residents identifying these issues as critical.  Additionally, Lindsay has been identified as the most at-risk electorate in NSW concerning health outcomes.  Higher-than-average unemployment rate also prevails, at 5.6% compared to the national average.

Addressing these challenges requires practical, results-driven leadership that prioritizes economic freedom and security for all Australians. Mr O’Conner is committed to implementing Trumpet of Patriots policies that restore prosperity to the residents of Lindsay.
