Chief Minister Michael Gunner attempted to exclude a democratically-elected federal politician from participating in a media conference concerning federal funding to the Northern Territory, the NT Independent can reveal.

Territory Alliance Drysdale candidate Aiden Pigram has resigned following old Facebook posts resurfacing in which he made controversial remarks comparing Islam to Hitler and later appearing to request contact details for the local KKK branch.

A series of political forums will give the public a chance to see the people who want to lead the Territory in action, less than two months out from the election.

We can think of no greater example of undemocratic conduct than banning a media outlet and restricting the flow of information in a time of public crisis.

Chief Minister Michael Gunner ordered the removal of potential COVID-19 carriers from a luxury residential building half way through their quarantine because he felt they should be in a “more traditional hotel situation”.

The Gunner Government should delay the August election until the true state of the Territory’s finances are made public, says Territory Alliance.
