Paul Lennon
Paul Anthony Lennon (born 8 October 1955) is an Australian Labor Party politician. He was Premier of Tasmania from 21 March 2004 until his resignation on 26 May 2008. He was member of the Tasmanian House of Assembly for the seat of Franklin from 1990 until officially resigning on 27 May 2008.〔(Franklin Recount ), ''Tasmanian Electoral Commission''〕 He left office abruptly after his preferred premier rating fell to 17%, largely as a result of perceptions of corruption in his government's fast-tracked approval of the Gunns Bell Bay Pulp Mill proposal, which had effectively bypassed normal planning procedure.
==Early life==
Born in Hobart, he attended St Virgil's College, then worked as a storeman and clerk before becoming an organiser with the Storemen and Packers Union in 1978.
In 1980 he became Tasmanian State Secretary of the Storeman and Packers Union, and from 1982 he was Senior Vice President of the national union.〔Ward, Airlie: (Paul Lennon ), ''Stateline Tasmania'' (ABC), 26 March 2004.〕 In 1984 Lennon became Secretary of the Tasmanian Trades & Labor Council, and also a member of the Executive of the Australian Council of Trade Unions.
Lennon first ran for parliament at 1989 state election. He was elected to the Tasmanian House of Assembly in 1990 on a recount of votes following the resignation of Ken Wriedt and immediately became Deputy Leader of the Labor Party. He was Shadow Minister for Industrial Relations, Workplace Standards, Workers' Compensation, Public Sector Management, Forests, Mines, Racing and Gaming, and Leader of Opposition Business in the House of Assembly.
