Their stated priorities

  1. “I’ll fight to put money back into publicly-run services, not into subsidising profiteering corporations who today run much of our transport, childcare, aged care and many other things.”
  2. “I’ll fight for more public housing and a freeze on rents - so that just keeping a roof over our heads is no longer such a daily struggle.”

Bios and campaign quotes are copied word for word from the candidate's party profile or their own website, and each links to its source: we don't summarise or rate what they say. The issues are the same ones used for sitting members' records, so candidates can be compared on equal terms. Election history comes from official VEC and AEC results. Donations are as published on VEC Disclosures.
