About this listen
David migrated from Scotland to Australia as a teenager, worked his way into local government, and by his late thirties, had become South Australia’s youngest ever Opposition Leader. But the pressure of holding that position took a toll he eventually couldn’t hide...
In 2024, a video surfaced showing him using cocaine, sparking front page headlines, intense scrutiny, and the collapse of his career. Initially in denial out of shame and embarrassment, David then admitted the truth, pleading guilty to cocaine supply and telling the court he turned to drugs as a form of escapism. He was fined, ordered to complete community service, and has since apologised for his mistakes.
