https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... Party.htmlProminent conspiracy theorist and chef Pete Evans has entered Australian Federal Politics, with an announcement he will run for the Senate.
Evans was unveiled by former One Nation MP Rod Culleton at 1am on Friday as The Great Australia Party's 'first Senate candidate for the Federal Election'.
'Pete Evans has maintained his principles and inspired others in the face of uncommon adversity,' Mr Culleton's statement said.
'Pete is fully supportive of the GAP ethos, supporting restoration of the Commonwealth and the preservation of democracy in Australia.
'Throughout his engagement with GAP's national selection committee, Pete presented an unwavering commitment to advancing the freedoms of all Australians. As a result, he has been resoundingly approved.
The next Federal Election is scheduled for 2022, but many political commentators are picking a 2021 poll, possibly by November.
Evans teased the move in January when he posted the Great Australian Party (GAP) logo to his Instagram, accompanied by a famous quote by 18th century political philosopher Edmund Burke: 'The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing'.
