Brendan Clarke, Candidate for Morwell

Brendan Clarke is 65 years old and is married with a blended family of nine children, two grandchildren and another two soon to arrive.

Brendan spent his career in operational policing with Victoria Police, particularly in the Gippsland region, before finishing his service in 2021.

Since retiring from policing, Brendan has worked in both part-time and full-time roles across civil construction, disability support, agricultural farm work and, more recently, the mining industry in the Northern Territory.

Brendan is actively involved in a local Christian church in the Warragul area.

Brendan enjoys keeping fit through walking, swimming and cycling. His many interests and hobbies include fishing, snorkelling, camping, hiking, reading, gardening and travelling.

Brendan believes that government should foster healthy family life and, wherever possible, support the cohesion and stability of families, which he considers the foundation and building blocks of a healthy society.

He strongly believes that government should support the preservation of life rather than the unethical and premature ending of a human life that he believes is being advocated by the current Labor government and opposition.

Brendan believes that Christianity, as the founding faith of Australia, and its high values and principles should be encouraged and supported throughout Victoria.

Brendan is also committed to ensuring that the freedoms and human rights embedded in Australia's Constitution are upheld and protected.

As a Family First candidate, Brendan is committed to supporting strong families, protecting human life, defending fundamental freedoms and promoting the Christian values that have helped shape Australian society.
