Tim Nicholls

Timothy James Nicholls was elected as the member for Clayfield in the Queensland Legislative Assembly on 9 September 2006. He defeated incumbent member Liddy Clark. He is the deputy leader of the Liberals in Queensland.

Shortly after being elected to State Parliament, Nicholls was encouraged by party colleagues to stand against Bruce Flegg for the Liberal Party leadership.
