TOP TUESDAY

Good morning everyone
I spoke at the Grayndler candidates forum last night. It again was a most enjoyable experience and the feedback I received was very positive. I stressed the good work the Australian Democrats have done across the board and how this would be lost without Democrats representation in Parliament. These points were acknowledged with nods of approval from fellow speakers and the audience. It really shows how important our work is and how important it is to Vote 1 Australian Democrats in order to ensure this work continues.
Today I awoke to find the following press release in my inbox. The Centre for an Ethical Society, a Christian organisation with broad experience in advocating social justice issues, has ranked the Australian Democrats as the number one party when it comes to issues of social justice. We left the other parties trailing behind. A vote for the Democrats is the best way to vote for social justice. You can find the press release here and you can view how the other parties fell behind here. The Democrats scored 77 out of 80 - a whopping 96.25%! Incidentally, their headquarters are in Lewisham, smack bang in the middle of Grayndler.
I have a lot of campaigning today. I have two interviews with Portuguese language journalists. One works for SBS Radio and one works for Lusa, a Portuguese news wire service. I could be featured in some Portugese newspapers. I wonder how many Grayndler residents will be voting at the Australian Embassy in Lisbon…
Adeus – that’s Portuguese for goodbye.
