Henry Pike will contest the Queensland seat of Bowman for the LNP to replace Federal incumbent MP, Andrew Laming.

Mr Pike, the Property Council director of media and communications, won a five-way LNP preselection battle on Sunday.

Dr Laming will quit politics at the next election after allegations that he harassed two women online.

The LNP’s culture towards women is being criticised, after a complaint was made about Mr Pike sending fat-shaming texts about women during his time with the Young LNP more than a decade ago.
