Mojo ♻️<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@thejuicemedia" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>thejuicemedia</span></a></span> This isn’t just a bad bill; it’s a betrayal of Australian voters. These changes were rushed through Parliament without proper scrutiny, debate, or transparency. The biggest changes to electoral laws in 40 years deserved a multi-party inquiry, not backroom deals. <br>It’s clear: the major parties are more interested in protecting their duopoly than serving the people. This is why we need strong, independent voices in Parliament, voices that aren’t beholden to corporate donors or party machines. <br><a href="https://aus.social/tags/DemocracyForSale" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DemocracyForSale</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AusPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AusPol</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Independents" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Independents</span></a></p>
