Some really great musings from Mark Riboldi here.

He presents a really insightful set of ideas, questions and points on who is represented in Australian politics, in what ways, and how they get there - I'm very happy to have played a small role in sparking them!
Some more election related thoughts - this time about representation, accountability and power.

The Liberal Party's women problem isn't new, yet the party has made little progress.

My @aunz.theconversation.com article draws on findings about how women were recruited to independent campaigns to consider how the Liberal Party could attract more women.

The Liberals’ women problem may seem intractable, but here’s what they could learn from the Teals
As the election campaign wraps up, the impression of the Liberals being out of touch with women persists, but some solutions can be found in their political rivals.

This is more likely about where and in what circumstances independents are electable.

The electorates outlined here almost all ran independents in 2022, and these campaigns will build on this existing support and campaign infrastructure.

People are increasingly looking for better political representation - with "independence" being an appealing value that the major parties aren't delivering.
