The landscape of the Community Independents movement is broadening out quite excitingly!

I suspect that, while the 2022 election was all aobut the urban independents, 2025 will be about the regional and rural independents.

I predicted this the day after the election 😎 🥂
This will be an excellent opportunity for a great #Climate200 supported candidate.
I can't remember who ran as a #Community_Independents candidate in May22.

Excellent article by #MichaelMazengarb on the donations from the #FossilFuel lobby to the old *major* parties ...
Worth noting up front that none of the #Community_Independents / #Teals or the #Greens received any donations from the declining #FossilFuel base. #climateCrisis #Climate200

Fossil fuels poured $1.3+ million into the major parties in 2022, but then the climate movement fought back

New data from the Electoral Commission shows how fossil fuel giants funded the election campaigns of the major parties in 2022. But, it also marked a financial fightback by the climate movement.

@PaulfromOz @MsPraxis with luck, you should have some #Community_Independents to give your first preference to … #Climate200 🥂
