Denis Wilfred Collins (born 27 October 1941) is a former Australian politician. He was a member of the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly from 1980 to 1997, representing Alice Springs until 1983, Sadadeen until 1990 and Greatorex thereafter. He was first elected as a member of the Country Liberal Party, but lost preselection in 1986 and became an Independent, winning re-election in 1987. A conspiracy theorist, Collins advocated burying guns in the desert in response to the Fabian Socialist World Bank conspiracy. He was defeated in 1994 by CLP candidate Richard Lim.[1]
In later years he joined One Nation, and contested the Tasmanian seat of Bass for the party in 2001.[2]
