It’s time to make our democracy fair for everyone. 

Sign the open letter calling on our elected representatives to work together to get big money out of our political system and put people and planet back in.

Open letter

To our elected representatives,

We call on you to work together to get big money out of our political system and put people back in.

This means:

  • Banning large donations to political parties and candidates.
  • Increasing the transparency of political donations, including real time reporting of donations. 
  • Limiting expenditure at election times so corporations can’t use their oversized  wallets to drown out our voices.
  • Creating an independent watchdog to investigate and stamp out corruption.
  • Stronger lobbying regulation and greater transparency so we know who’s meeting with our elected representatives and why.

Corporations are not citizens, and should not be able to influence the democratic process whether through their spending or otherwise.

A Democracy with strong oversight of the political process is vital for Australia’s future and citizens well being

Because it’s obvious they are just paying off to get their own way with the things they wish to do to the planet

Big business is managed by authoritarian rules that are contradictory to democracy. They prefer to deal with dictatorships, the more corrupt the better, so they get the best conditions to max profits. Governments are too weak or lax in countervailing business powers. Democracy has to be enforced by People Power.

Democracy without interference, but with transparency, and without corruption, is absolutely important!
We need strong laws, strong politicians to stand up against big polluters, and to bring severe penalties to these corporations that do NOT put our environments First.

Big money continues to play a disproportionate role in the election and behaviour of our political leaders. As a result many of our leaders are heavily influenced by corporate lobbyists and are diverted from acting in the best interests of the community. We must turn this around.

The Australian government must represent the best interests of the people and not big companies or their own selfish self interests. For this to have a chance to work there must be strict limits on the amount of money politicians can accept for large corporations NOW!

An environmental future reliant on the needs and wants of the community will ensure a better future for the environment and ultimately all humanity. Bug companies influencing decision making simply because they spend money in political spheres will never recognise environmental impacts
Margie 2022-09-06 06:59:26 +1000
the first government that removes money out of the politics truly supports democracy and aren’t in it for the money. A government who doesn’t remove it supports corruption and are climate denials

Australians should have the truth. It’s deceptive not knowing who is funding and what deals they do because of that.
