Your Strong Voice for Petrie
Hi, I'm Luke Howarth, your Federal Member for Petrie
Luke grew up on the northside of Brisbane, often enjoying crabbing and fishing with his Dad in Bramble Bay. He started Judo at the Bracken Ridge Scout Hall at 7 years of age and represented Queensland and progressed to a black belt. He met his wife Louise, and they had three sons.
Luke went on to run a successful family business, employing over 20 staff members, and found himself frustrated by the state of the economy under the Rudd Labor Government. He wanted to make a real difference for families and businesses in the community he calls home and decided to nominate as a candidate for Petrie in the 2013 Federal Election.
