Darren James Webber (born 29 June 1981), an Australian politician, was a member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly representing Wyong on the Central Coast for the Liberal Party from the 2011 New South Wales state election[1] until 19 February 2014 when he moved to the parliamentary crossbench and sat as an independent after the Independent Commission Against Corruption heard evidence that Webber may have breached electoral funding laws.

[2] He was originally apprenticed as a smallgoods butcher, but terminated that and became an apprentice electrician, apparently not finishing that apprenticeship either.

[3] Webber owned a business installing home theatre systems and had a long involvement with local surf life saving clubs.

[4] While working, Webber was involved in a serious workplace accident and says he "experienced first hand the poor state of our hospitals",[2] which subsequently led to his decision to run for office.

[9][10][11] In response to the inquiry, the Liberal partyroom began the process of suspending MPs including Webber from the parliamentary party, even though they had just renominated for their seats.
