Our community campaign has succeeded in forcing the Albanese Government to release an extra 20,000 Home Care packages now.
Thank you to my colleagues on the crossbench and everyone in the community who got involved!

Liberal Party is taking the AEC to the High Court to challenge the result in Bradfield.
If you can, please help @Nicolette_Boele raise money for legal costs.
If the court orders the Liberal Party to pay Nicolette’s legal costs, she will offer a refund. nicoletteboele.com.au/defenc…
My statement on the news that the Liberal Party will challenge the result in Bradfield.

Huge congratulations @Nicolette_Boele and your incredible team of 1,450 volunteers for winning the seat of Bradfield. What a ride! Let’s hope it’s now final.🩵
Great analysis here by @BrentHodgson on Monash and why 2PP is misleading in complex contests.
An incredible campaign by @debleonard and her team... watch this space! 🤞
Monash! INSANE result.
Firstly, the two-party primary is just 52.4% 🤯🤯
Nearly half of all voters backed an IND or minor party here. “4 horse races” are now possible.
INCREDIBLE campaign by @debleonard & community.
INCREDIBLY complex count ahead.

Hey everyone —tomorrow Dickson decides. We’re down to the wire, and now’s the moment to paint the internet maroon 🖌️
Please share this short video it’s simple, clear, and and from the heart. If you believe in this people-powered movement, now’s the time to hit share, tag your friends in Dickson, and help get this message out.
Let’s flood social feeds with maroon and make sure every voter knows they finally have a choice this time.
Want change? Vote for it.

In 2022, the Coalition lost an election in which the biggest issue was climate change.
In 2025, they’re going to the election without a single policy which would decrease our carbon emissions in the next 10 years.

"The avg mortgage pays $200k in profit to the banks. The supermarkets made an extra billion last yr when their profit margins went up.
"We can either collect more tax from the big businesses that can afford to pay it, or we can say, Sorry, Marge, you've had it too good." #qanda

Trailblazer. Mentor. Changemaker.
Cathy McGowan AO made history as the first female independent MP to sit on the parliamentary crossbench — and she’s been inspiring community candidates ever since.

Peter Dutton holds Dickson by just 1.7%—the slimmest margin of any MP in Queensland. That’s not a stronghold. That’s a seat crying out for change.
I’m not running for the majors. I’m running for our community. And we’re building something powerful—people-powered, local, and fiercely independent.
This campaign is about sensible leadership, real solutions, and putting Dickson first. Always.
We’re not here to make up the numbers. We’re here to represent the community.
Want change? Vote for it.
Vote 1 Ellie Smith, Independent for Dickson

ALT Image of Ellie Smith smiling, standing against a red and white background. Quotes from The Courier Mail, Reddit/Auspol, and The Daily Mail highlight Peter Dutton’s slim 1.7% margin in Dickson and suggest Ellie Smith could unseat him. Bold text reads: “Want change? Vote for it.” A campaign banner at the bottom says: “Vote 1 Ellie Smith, Independent for Dickson.”
Albanese and Dutton may dominate the debate stage but Community Independents like @zdaniel are showing there's a different way to lead: people powered, values driven, solutions focused & rooted in community.

Delighted to see independents getting profiled, but can we please do better on the fact-checking?
Like their name suggests, an independent MP is separate from any party, with their own individual policies and views. Here's a guide to who's who.ab.co/3FV3l0X
