Ms McKay grew up in Gloucester which is also part of the electorate and has recognised the "diversity" of industries in the Upper Hunter including agriculture and horse studs. He has also written short stories, such as 'Mr Dombie the Zombie', which was broadcast on the British Broadcasting Corporation programme Caribbean Voices.
"They don't do it because they want to damage the environment, they do it because they're paying the mortgage." Drayton is the author of one volume of poetry, Three Meridians (1950), and two novels: Christopher (1959), which was first published in part in Bim magazine, and Zohara (1961). "We have to make sure that we respect each and every person that walks into a coal mine. "We have to protect the jobs that are here," Ms McKay said. She says Mr Drayton is the "right person" for a by-election which she believes will be focused on mining jobs in the area. Opposition Leader Jodi McKay was in Singleton with the candidate to launch Labor's campaign. "And I'm going to fight bloody hard to make sure that does." Located in West Hartford, Connecticut, Zohara reflects the ongoing evolution of Mediterranean cuisine, while celebrating the abundance of the areas local farms. "Every time I open the newspaper or every time I turn the TV on I see somebody having a go at coal miners and that has to stop.
"I'm a coal miner and a proud coal miner," he said. Zohara is a novel with a supernatural theme set in Spain, which contrasts the nature of superstition and religion in the life of a village and its inhabitants. Mr Drayton's candidacy was announced on his 51st birthday. The CFMEU official from Muswellbrook will contest the seat at next month's crucial by-election where Labor will attempt to defeat the Nationals, who have held the seat for 90 years.
