Media attacks on independents are escalating in the lead-up to the election. It’s crucial that voters can access an honest record of independent achievements in Parliament.
Our media buyers have confirmed it’s possible to selectively place ads around coverage of independents between now and May 3, effectively neutralising hit pieces from Murdoch columnists that would otherwise be seen by tens of thousands of undecided voters every single day.
We want to lock this media buy in now. If you make a contribution to help reach our $120,000 target in the next 48 hours it will be doubled by CBR4C200 (a Canberra-based grassroots fundraising group).
"We think Australians are fed up with dishonesty in the media. We certainly are. People deserve access to truthful information about political candidates and what they really stand for. In an election where so much is at stake, it’s vital that everyone understands how much independents have accomplished, and what they could achieve in the next Parliament." Emily, CBR4C200
CBR4C200 are amazing community crowdfunders who raised nearly $50,000 for the independents movement in 2021 and over $63,000 last year. They’re a completely grassroots operation of teachers, nurses, writers, mums, dads, and kids dedicated to real climate outcomes in the next Parliament.
We are very excited to support Climate 200 and strongly agree with their goals for action on climate, integrity, and diversity. After meeting the team at Climate 200, we know that they will make sure that every dollar donated is well-targeted and will make a real difference in getting more independent voices into Parliament.
We are proud to support Climate 200 in its mission to support local communities and their independent candidates fighting for action on climate change, equality and integrity. We need our political representation to respond to the concerns of its citizens. We know we are better together and hope you join us in this push for a safe climate and fairer future for all.
We’re frustrated and embarrassed with the lack of meaningful action at the federal level in Australia to address the Climate Emergency. We strongly feel there is a need for more people in the federal government that have the integrity and the independence to act in the interests of future generations. Please join us in supporting the work being done by Climate 200 at this pivotal point.
