Stop Giving the Right the Language of Strength

Progressive movements attract a certain kind of person.

People who care about harm. People who notice unfairness. People who do not want politics to become cruel, degrading, exclusionary, or careless with people’s lives. People who are often more comfortable preventing damage than projecting power.

It is why we care about public health, education, climate, housing, civil rights, and democracy. It is why we do not casually sacrifice people to slogans.

Hello Victorians! For the Federal election earlier this year, we were excited to announce our coalition with the Australian Progressives thanks to our shared goals in reducing inequality, environmental preservation, evidence based policy and planning for a visionary future.

We were shocked by two major news items yesterday: the tragic murder of two police officers attending a sex offences call, and the announcement by the Albanese Labor Government and ASIO that Iran was behind the shocking synagogue and cafe terrorist attacks.
