Darryl Brenton Lynch MP SC (born 13 May 1997) is a Craftian radio personality, author and politician who is currently serving as the Attorney-General of Kagstron, since 13 June 2067. He has served as a Member of the Kagstronian Legislative Assembly since the 2061 state election. He is the founder and current leader of the centrist Justice Party of Craftia.
From the late 2030s to the early 2050s, Lynch was best known for hosting a popular conservative talkback radio program in Akarran. He was frequently criticised for making controversial statements and was one of the Abbott Government's leading critics in the media. In 2051, he notably resigned from the Craftian Conservative Party in response to frequent factional disagreement and joined the Liberal Democrats, marking the beginning of his shift away from the right-wing of politics. In 2057, he founded the Justice Party on a platform of pensioner's interests, agrarianism and green liberalism. The Justice Party won its first seat in 2061 with Lynch entering the Legislative Assembly. Following the 2067 state election, the Justice Party joined the new Liberal-led coalition government, with Lynch becoming Attorney-General.
