“Why should I join Fusion and not X?”

Where it is necessary for government to intervene in private enterprise, do you prefer the approach taken to be one of facilitation or incentivisation (as necessary) rather than a regulatory or mandatory approach?

• > If you prefer mandated regulatory approaches you may be more comfortable in: The Greens.

Are you willing to accept regulatory or mandated approaches according to the evidence of their effectiveness to expediently deal with issues (preferably as temporary measures), or are such things unacceptable to you?

• > If you cannot tolerate direct intervention even for evidence-based expediency, you may be more comfortable in: The Libertarian Party.

Do you feel the need, or prefer to value, the defence of unique spaces developed to enable the advancement of disadvantaged communities? Or do you prefer to seek systemic changes which enable people of any persuasion to be equally served?

• > Systemic change tends to reduce community-unique spaces as the need for them diminishes. If you prefer to value and defend those spaces instead of other inclusive solutions; you may be more comfortable in: Labor

It is of course necessary to ensure a smooth transition by acting responsibly to not create more danger in pursuit of reform, but;

 > If you prefer to see the absolute social freedom of systemic reform, welcome to Fusion.

Our Values

We strive for Equity as the highest value to ensure everybody has both the minimum requirements for a dignified life and fair access to opportunities in society.

Ethical Conduct is essential to ensure we achieve all goals in a trustworthy, fair, and transparent manner.

We maintain Safety at all times when improving the lives of all Australians, where respect-for-life is the preferred stance. Priority is protection from harm towards attaining the highest level of freedom.

With respect to the nature of our home and environment we live in, from our immediate relationship with our surroundings, our city, country, continent, the world and beyond, we work to restore Ecological Harmony.

As we experience increasingly new levels of Advancement in science and technology, we want to optimise the goal of forever improving, progressing, empowering, and actualising, while respecting our previous values before it.

Our utmost, utopian ideal is that we are people who stand for ultimate Personal Liberty - with freedom of thought to explore radical concepts or ideas, supporting authentic self-expression and self-actualisation.

You can read about these values and how we apply them in more detail here: Our Values

Our Story

We were formed in 2021 through an amalgamation of the Science Party, Pirate Party, Secular Party, Vote Planet, and Climate Change Justice Party. Our fusion has expanded our knowledge base and strengthened our organisational capacity, bringing together like-minded people from across the continent.

We contested our first election in May 2022, with Senate candidates in all five mainland states and nine House of Representatives candidates—a testament to our capacity when working together. To learn more about the presence of these parties in Fusion today, read more here.

But of course that was just the start of the Fusion - through our founding movements our history goes back much farther, and you can see a history of our candidates here: Previous Candidates
