New Nats' candidate - a farmer with experience in renovations


Another National party candidate for pre-selection in Clarence arrived on the scene yesterday and her background suggests she could be just what the doctor ordered for the party to get its local act into gear.

Fiona Leviny, a farmer from Southgate and a contestant on TEN's show The Renovators, stepped up to the plate with her nomination but has her hands tied to the TV show in the immediate future so will be missing from the local scene while the serious business of lobbying for support for pre-selection takes place in the days leading up to the party's D-Day on Saturday, October 1.

Leviny told The Daily Examiner that in the middle of her bid to get National Party endorsement to run for the seat of Clarence she has to travel to Sydney for four days for filming of the final episodes of The Renovators.

Leviny's commitment to the cause is indeed most admirable. She's prepared to do the hard yards, not settling for a second-rate effort like those who say they'll make just a 110% effort.

Leviny, who has a solid background in agriculture and tourism across Australia and overseas, said she would be there to work 150%.
