In the lead up to the 2022 Federal Election, we talk to Senator Dorinda Cox (Senate Candidate for Greens WA), Jackie Bennett (No. 2 Senate Candidate for the Australian Federation Party QLD), Clr Trish Frail (Candidate for Parkes, Greens NSW) and Tabatha Young (Candidate for Bonner QLD).

Australia’s first Indian-born Hindu MP to enter any parliament in Australia, Ms Kaushaliya Vaghela, shares an incredible story of how she overcame seemingly insurmountable challenges that put her on a pathway into politics and eventually to the Legislative Council in the Victorian Parliament. 

 For the first time in history, three Aboriginal women were pre-selected as candidates for the Western Australian Election 2021.  Labor’s Divina D’Anna, The Nationals Party’s Milli Hills and The Greens Party’s Naomi Pigram were all born and raised in the remote Kimberley region of Western Australia.  This event was sponsored by Kimberley Birds and facilitated by their CEO, Natasha Short. 

 In this lively discussion, we ask three Gay MPs what it’s really like being openly gay in New South Wales Parliament.  Facilitators include Larry Galbraith and Marcelle Hoff and MPs include Minister Don Harwin, Shayne Mallard MLC and Alex Greenwich MP.  This event was sponsored by Star Observer.
