Phil Leslie - Candidate for Tangney, WA

Born and bred in Western Australia, I’ve spent most of my life working hard on the ocean as a professional fisherman, in the mines, behind the wheel as a truck driver, and in the last 20 years before retirement, running my own chilli business.

I’m standing for the Legalise Cannabis Party because I believe in the power of cannabis as medicine. As a long-time pain sufferer, I’ve experienced first-hand how effective and natural this plant can be—and how much better it is than relying on pharmaceuticals.

I’m passionate about cannabis reform and want to see a future where people have legal, safe, and affordable access to this incredible plant. It’s time we recognised the benefits and moved forward with compassion and common sense.
