Our leaders set the tone for our democracy. When politics turns toxic, division grows. We need leaders who practice polite politics and engage in productive debate because we all deserve better.

For too long, politics has been about party lines, not real people. I’m standing as an independent to bring honest representation, practical solutions, and real community-driven change to the NT.

πŸ’™ A Community Voice
Solomon deserves a leader who listens, collaborates, and acts.

The community independent movement is the antidote to feeling powerless. It's building community, it's practicing democracy and getting better representation. It's also FUN - get involved!

Despite our government calling it a technology sharing agreement, AUKUS ties us to US foreign policy for decades, and to a degree to US domestic policy.

Finding a way out of AUKUS is essential. Difficult, but essential.

We've seen it in the US election, and now it's happening here. What is behind the rise of 'double haters'? The past week has given us a taste of the degustation of political messages we are about to be bombarded with ahead of the next election. And it isn't pretty.

Up till now both major political parties have β€œcombined” to convince the electorate that a vote for a minor party, or even worse an independent, was a wasted vote. The two-party β€œduopoly” has been protecting each other’s interest against the interests of the Australian electorate.

You may have noticed a significant rise in Independent candidates this yearβ€”those who are not affiliated with any political party. Community independents vote for their communities not on a party line and that is a powerful promise to constituents.
