Aussies prone to voting for women “Independents”

What is it with the propensity in the last five or six years or so for the Aussie electorate to vote in so many left-of centre women as “independent” MP’s? This Wiki lists the women I am talking about, Cathy McGowan, Kerryn Phelps, Rebekha Sharkie, Zali Steggall, Helen Haines and in the Senate Jacqui Lambie.
Now we have the 21 Climate200 candidates acting exactly like members of a political party – there are 18 women. The Climate200 www page says “..this isn’t a complete list of all current values-aligned candidates.” so there may be more.
The AEC should insist that all Climate200 candidates stand under the banner of a political party with a name like “GetUp Climate200 Party”.
The GreenLeft ABC has just reported – AEC investigating website registered to One Nation candidate fundraising for ‘freedom candidates’ 12Apr22 This is an amazing read how the AEC rides into battle with a relatively insignificant Indie candidate.
While ignoring the huge issue of the large group of Climate 200 candidates all getting aid from Holmes a Court and GetUp with real potential to warp our election.

I come back to the question raised in my blog headline – is there some psychological thing causing Aussies to vote for women Indies? In recent years there has been colossal leftist media propaganda about women and climate – so I wonder if that is affecting us all.

  1. Yep CLIMATE 200 is a GURL POWA Chic Flic.

    [Perhaps Kevvy will come out of the closet & stand with them?]

    You would have to wonder whether Hacka is spinning in his grave.

    Hopefully enough people have woken up to the fact that AGW & Covid were both brought to you by the same people.

  2. >” … colossal leftist media propaganda about women and climate – so I wonder if that is affecting us all”

    Of course it is. These women are all running in “upper-class” electorates (class here being decided on income) because of the women/climate propaganda poured out over the last 15 years.

    The Libs have been outflanked in broad daylight. They refused point blank to wrestle with this propaganda and this is a consequence. I’ve had pointed discussions over the last 15 years with some colleagues who live on Sydney’s north side – this outcome was brewing then. Rational, evidence-based discussion was simply impossible … just ask their wives.

  3. David Archibald has a new article at The Wentworth Report – take link above to my earlier blog – “David Archibald climate sceptic running for Curtin”
    Who would have thought that Albo would have made so many Gaffs in the first week of election campaign.
    Not knowing the cash rate and the unemployment rate were pretty surprising.
    But his latest on our borders that he will rely on turning back boats and the will be no offshore detention!!! – surely will be revving up the people smugglers business plane again. We all know that –
    A – Border Force and Navy can not intercept every boat.
    B – Boats they do intercept can be incapacitated so they they are impossible to turn around – or people just jump into the water.
    It just will not keep illegals away Albo!!
    Has Labor been too complacent after the years of favourable polls – ABC inspired attacks on ScoMo by all & sundry?
    Too complacent to develop adequate policy to win an election against the Govt.
