Have you previously been a member of a political party?
Answer
I was previously a member of the Greens out of concern for climate and future generations. But, like many people, as a sensible and grounded person I became frustrated with party politics that increasingly ignored what our community wants and, at a federal level, the failure to take a constructive approach to solving the housing crisis. WA has a proud history of successful independent candidates who have left political parties to better represent their communities. As an independent, my priority is clear: to genuinely represent the people of Churchlands without fear or favour.
