Comedian Mandy Nolan set to ride the Big Prawn all the way to Canberra

Whether you laugh, cry or take her very seriously, Mandy Nolan’s tilt at the seat of Richmond at the next federal election is going to be one to watch.

Comedian Mandy Nolan is running for the seat of Richmond at the next federal election with this as her campaign t shirt.

Whether you laugh, cry or take her very seriously, Mandy Nolan’s tilt at the seat of Richmond at the next federal election is going to be one to watch.

Her unusual campaign T-shirt has been revealed, featuring Ms Nolan in a bra and undies sitting astride the Big Prawn.

But the Northern Rivers comedian is also churching out some serious stuff to go with the memorable T-shirt.

She recently attacked sitting member Justine Elliott for “selling out” the Richmond community by supporting the government’s tax cuts for big business.

She pointed to analysis from the Australia Institute which showed that the Richmond electorate was one of the worst affected electorates in the country.

She said Richmond was ranked 127th out of all 151 electorates across the country from the supposed benefits from the tax cuts, while all Richmond locals would have to be on the lookout for service cuts.

Justine Elliott and the Labor Party were betraying the people of Richmond by backing tax cuts for billionaires.

“With house prices out of control and Covid impacting our local economy, we should be investing in services for our community, not tax cuts for the wealthy few,” she said in her statement.

“This backflip for Labor is bad news for the Richmond electorate.”
