Alexander Rodney Douglas
Alexander Rodney "Alex" Douglas (born 24 November 1958) is an Australian
politician. Born in Brisbane, he comes of a political family: his great
grandfather was John Douglas, Premier of
Queensland 1877–1879, and his grandfather was Harry Douglas, a member of
the Queensland Legislative Assembly for Cook 1915–1929. He was a general
practitioner and medical officer before entering parliament, and was
deputy chair of the Queensland Division of General Practice. He was also
on the Central Council of the National Party.
In April 2006, he
was elected to the Queensland Legislative Assembly in a by-election for
the Labor seat of Gaven, representing the National Party. He was
appointed Deputy Opposition Whip in August, but in the state elections
in September he was defeated by Labor candidate Phil Gray. He contested
the 2007 federal election as the National candidate for Fadden, but was
defeated by the Liberal candidate Stuart Robert.
He is married to Gold Coast City Councillor and Nationals senior
vice-president Susie Douglas.
