Timeline
In 2012, Besseling was directly elected as Mayor; and secured three other Councillors to the Port Macquarie-Hastings Council on his independent election ticket. Besseling was reelected Mayor in September 2016, but then resigned in May 2017 to become General Manager at Birdon Pty Ltd.
In 2011 Besseling lost his seat to National Party candidate Leslie Williams, suffering a swing of 11 percent. It is suggested that his defeat was due to his association to Oakeshott, whose support kept the federal Labor government in office after the 2010 federal election. Port Macquarie had always been considered National heartland, and had been a comfortably safe National seat in "traditional" two-party matchups with Labor even when Oakeshott held it without serious difficulty as an independent.
Besseling was elected as an independent member in the New South Wales Legislative Assembly for the seat of Port Macquarie; winning the seat in a 2008 by-election. The seat came open when the former member, independent Rob Oakeshott, resigned to make an ultimately successful run for the federal seat of Lyne. Besseling worked as a political adviser for his sometime rugby teammate Oakeshott for the previous three years.
Besseling won the seat with 35.9 percent of the primary vote and 54.5 percent of the two-party vote. This was a significant drop from Oakeshott's last victory in 2007; at the time of his resignation, Oakeshott sat on a majority of 28.2 percent, the safest in the Legislative Assembly. Alby Schultz, the Liberal Member for Hume, was seen campaigning a few times for Besseling, referring to him as "the pick of the candidates". Similar support was provided from Bill Heffernan, a Liberal Senator, sparking anger and resentment within the federal coalition.
Besseling played 15 games for the NSW Waratahs from 2000 to 2001 and is a former second-rower and 1999 Ken Catchpole Medallist.
