How I Vote

The Power of Independence

As an Independent, I’m accountable to you - not a political party. That means I’m free to work with both sides of politics to deliver what’s right for our community. As an Independent, I always put our community first.

I deliver for the community in three ways:

Advocate

As an Independent, I can stand up on the tough issues the major parties are too scared to talk about. I’m also free to think about the long-term, not just the next election. That’s why I released my Tax Green Paper, which sets out the urgent need to reform our tax system, starting with lowering income taxes so young people can get ahead.

Legislate I’m interested in good policy, not politics. That’s why I’ll work constructively with anyone across the Parliament to try and make our laws better. Like amendments that me and other crossbenchers put forward to the Safeguard Mechanism, which significantly strengthened laws which reduce emissions from Australia’s biggest polluters. Vote Every time I vote, I do so based on the values of people in Wentworth. I listen to the experts, consult with our community, and decide things on an issue-by-issue basis. That’s not something that MPs from the major parties can say – they vote based on what party bosses tell them to do. There’s a lot of misinformation out there.
