The Greens

May 6, 2022 / Loki / 13 Comments

Summary

Website:	greens.org.au
Social Media:	Facebook — Twitter — YouTube — Instagram
Slogans:	The Time Is Now
Themes:	Socially progressive, economically left wing, pro-environment. Urgent need for climate action.
Electorates:	Upper House: All states Lower House: Many electorates
Preferences:	The preferences of the Greens are fairly unsurprising: a grab bag of other left-leaning parties with the ALP bringing up the rear. In between them, there’s the Victorian Socialists, the Animal Justice Party, Legalise Cannabis Australia and Reason, in that order. It’s not hard to look at that list and wonder if this isn’t organised in increasing order of electabililty, trying to ensure that the preference travels as little distance down as it has to.

Preferences:	The Liberal Democrats have chosen a small grouping of fellow travelers, leading off with United Australia and One Nation, followed by Morgan C Jonas at number 4. The Australian Federation Party and Australian Values Party bring up the rear, and it’s saying something that the AVP are probably the least crazy group in this listing.

Citizen’s Party

Summary

Website:	citizensparty.org.au
Social Media:	Facebook — Twitter — YouTube — Vimeo — SoundCloud — LinkedIn

Themes:	Banks are bad unless they’re the ones we want.
Electorates:	Upper House: New South Wales, Northern Territory, Queensland, South Australia and Victoria Lower House: Chisholm, Cunningham, Hawke, Lingiari, Mallee, Nicholls, Robertson & Sydney
Preferences:	Preferences now available here. Short and sweet: second place to Shooters, Farmers and Fishers, third to One Nation, fourth to the Greens, fifth to Reason and sixth to the Australian Values Party. So basically, a vote following this is going to help elect a Green. I would not have predicted that.
