People are gonna tell you that Liberal, Labor and the Nationals are the same and that the Greens are just a bunch of hippies.

But, I am writing this to ask you - have you, yourself, read their policies (a simple 10 minute google away)?
Because they are very different.
People who say ‘The election’s rigged’ or ‘Everyone is terrible so why care’ are giving up before they even try, before they take 10 minutes to sit down and read.
They also clearly haven’t read the news - Trump is a head nominee in the US elections because people voted for him, Britain just exited the EU because people voted for that.
We are the only ones making the system broken, because we aren’t taking 10 minutes to try..
Nothing in life is easy, how could government be any different.
It isn’t luck that gave us the country we have.
We aren’t ‘lucky’ to have democracy.
Democracy only exists because good people made good choices.
You have a choice, and if you choose not to inform yourself, you are the one to blame about the state of our country and our system.
For our local area of Lyne we need leadership, we need someone who has a track record of getting things done for their local community, and we need someone who will stand up to the Liberal forces that are killing community, farming and funding in our area.
The only person for this job, in my eyes, is Julie Lyford , the Greens candidate for Lyne.
Julie is a former mayor of Gloucester for 10 years, she has an Order of Australia Medal for her dedication to community and community groups, she has a track record of listening, of real change and of sticking up to the man.
Mum says it ain’t classy to tell people who you’re voting for, but classy won’t cut it this election.
We need real change, and we are the only ones who can change it.
Talk about it, tell your grandparents times have changed, tell them about what Liberal is doing to the country they worked hard to make.
Make it obvious, make it awkward, make it known, and put your enemy last on the ballot paper, whoever they are.
