I'm glad there's something I can do as an Australian, most of the petitions calling for a ceasefire or less military exports require you to be American.

Thank you Amy MacMahon - Greens MP for South Brisbane for listening to our concerns around housing, youth crime and climate. If only we had more reps like her who really care about people. #cairns

A politician showing genuine emotions and empathy for other people?!

Inconceivable!

Seriously though, this first speech was so touching, I couldn’t NOT tell anyone about it.

Good on ya, Stephen Bates!

When we see Australian election returns they often resemble the chart above. And this final result is certainly accurate. The ALP (Australian Labor Party) won with 77 seats in the House of Representatives and so it can now govern with a majority.

But as a nerdy American hearing confusing and seemingly contradictory references for the past dozen days I decided to look a little more deeply into the actual parties which won House seats.

The result was the creation of this chart.

What really complicates the party situation is the long term relationship between the Liberals (who aren’t that liberal) and Nationals (who aren’t that national). It gets peculiar in the state of Queensland where the two have tied the knot and now run on a common slate. To make it all simple, The Liberals, The Nationals, and LNP of Queensland are usually referred to as The Coalition.

Of course the complications don’t end there. Katter’s Australian Party and the Center Alliance are now essentially one-state parties; though Rebekha Sharkie (South Australia) and Bob Katter (Queensland) might dispute that.

The Australian Greens are indeed a regular party who even picked up one seat in May. 

The biggest media splash in this election was made by a loose grouping called “teal independents”. It’s not really an official name but they seem to have split with the Liberal Party over the latter’s increasingly conservative policies on climate and social issues.

And to top it all off, there are four regular independents.

While initially confusing, it’s worth keeping up with Australian politics these days. The ALP has a clear majority under Prime Minister Albanese. And there are four Greens and six Teals who could support him on some environmental measures.

Australia is also in the process of coming to terms with its colonial past and maltreatment of indigenous peoples. We’ll be hearing a lot about the ULURU STATEMENT FROM THE HEART in the next few years. There may be elements of this which we might find applicable in North America.

Incoming Greens MP Stephen Bates is still coming to terms with Brisbane victory in federal election

Incoming Greens MP Stephen Bates is still coming to terms with Brisbane victory in federal election

The incoming Greens MP in the federal seat of Brisbane will be quadrupling his salary and has only been to Parliament House in Canberra once. Life is about to change drastically for 29-year-old Stephen Bates, but he still has to work three more shifts in his retail job this week before he can focus on his new parliamentary role. “I still have to pay my rent,” he laughed. “So I’m going to be at…

Australian GP '24 // P2 Finish

"Carlos has been on it the whole weekend, so congratulations to him, he deserves it. Really happy for the team, we have scored maximum points... On my side, I will always try and do a better job. This weekend, I haven't particularly been on form since yesterday. But if on weekends where I'm not on form, I'm second with the fastest lap, then I will sign."
