Jonathan Peter Gee (born 24 May 1959) is a British Australian politician. He has been a
Before his election, Gee had been a secretary of the Australian Manufacturing Workers Union vehicle division and a Labor state president with close connections to the northern suburbs of Adelaide and to Holden.[3][4]
Gee's seat of Napier was renamed King and the boundaries moved east for the 2018 election, paring Gee's margin from a fairly safe nine percent to an extremely marginal 0.1 percent. Gee opted to transfer to the friendlier seat of Taylor, which received some of the western part of Napier in the redistribution.[5]
Gee announced in late January 2021 that he no longer intended to contest the 2022 South Australian state election.[6] It was rumoured that federal MP Nick Champion would take his place as Champion's previous plan to move to the electoral district of Light fell through.[7]
