Past Presidents
As custodians of the longstanding Young Liberal and Young National traditions in Queensland, since 1949 and 1958 respectively, the Young LNP is fortunate to have a long legacy of former Presidents both before and after the merger of the two parties.
Our Past Presidents are all connected by a passion for engaging young people in politics and many Young LNP alumni have gone on to contribute to our country through community, public office and business.
A list of past Young LNP, Queensland Young Liberal, and Queensland Young Nationals Presidents can be found below.
