You heard them! Head to climate200.com.au to have a look at the candidate directory and find the community backed independent candidate in your electorate.

Peter Dutton's Coalition continues to be an obstacle to climate action. In case you missed it, @ausconservation.bsky.social and @climatecouncil.bsky.social also gave the party a rock bottom score on the environment.

"Peter Dutton’s plan to build less renewable energy and keep Australia’s coal plants running longer has overestimated the reliability of ageing generators and could lead to major electricity shortages..." www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... Authorised by B. Fay, Climate 200, Potts Point.

No surprises here. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Did you see this news!? Heather Ruddock, the wife of former attorney-general Philip Ruddock, has quit the Liberal Party. She said an unnamed federal Coalition MP told her that tertiary-educated women were “not the demographic we’re going for” So she's voting independent🔥

Happy New Year 🔥 www.afr.com/politics/fed...

“The attention given to the teals can infuriate their major party rivals, the facts show they work harder than most in politics. “ 🔥🔥🔥🔥 www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

We are firmly on a path towards 100% renewable energy. We're already at almost 40%. But Dutton's wants to slam the brakes on clean energy - and keep coal burning for longer.

"Climate change remains one of the top three issues that young Australians see as needing immediate action...withdrawing from climate action undoes any notion of the government being seriously committed to my generation." Daniel Cash writes for the SMH. www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

cool and normal đź« 

"Only gas can save us now” — did a gas company write this? Actually, yes. @daanysaeed.bsky.social breaks down News Corp’s latest sponsored pro-gas coverage.

When I spoke to the Sydney Institute I set out my program for economic and tax reform. When the Manager of Opposition Business Mr Fletcher spoke, he explained why voters were stupid for electing community independents. @cathywilcox1 gets it.

ICYMI: McPherson Independent has a candidate! 🥳💛 “I’m definitely personally inspired by the independent movement,” @erchana4mcpherson.bsky.social told the AFR. "There’s a big appetite here for progression in the climate space and making sure we’re doing more." www.afr.com/politics/why...

Well.... do you want to feel different on our election night?

"Paul Fletcher - a nullity of a politician who has occupied Bradfield for 15 years - is panicking over being replaced by a community independent ... Alarmingly, his own voters want someone who represents them, not himself, and he’s outraged." @crikey.com.au www.crikey.com.au/2024/12/02/p...

“Farrell told a small group how the Climate 200 convenor had approached him to complain that his proposed changes to election donation laws would entrench the two-party system and lock out challengers. “I mean,” Farrell quipped, “that’s the fucking point!” Ugh. Cool bro. Petition link in our bio!
