Honest Government Ad | Hung Parliament (Patreon)

Dear PatronsHere is the latest Honest Government Ad that you've helped to make possible.This is our last Honest Government Ad for 2021. I want to thank all of you for supporting The Juice Media this year. We've covered a lot of topics - especially on climate and energy policy. And thanks to you, we've continued to remain 100% independent.This HGA is also our first episode in what will be our coverage of the federal election that will happen here in Australia in the first half of 2022.It's an absolutely crucial election because we can't afford another 3 years of climate shitfuckery like the world witnessed from this government at the COP26 summit in Glasgow.And whilst their climate policies differ in some regards, neither major party is going to this election with a science-based emission target or a policy to phase out coal and gas this decade - which is what the science says must happen.Which is why the key to ending this shit-stained chapter of climate inaction in Australia is to elect a Crossbench full of Not-Shit MPs who will force both major parties to adopt Not-Shit climate policies, if they want to govern.(“Not-Shit Candidate” is my short-hand for a party or Indy candidate with science-based policies for responding to the climate crisis and who doesn't take money from coal & gas companies - which unfortunately excludes both major parties. There are of course also Shit Indys and 3rd parties - so it's important to check their policies before you give them your vote!)The Morrison Government is shitting itself about all the Not-Shit candidates running in safe conservative/Liberal seats coz they know voters there won't elect a Labor/Greens candidate, but they might elect a small-l liberal Not-Shit Independent (as they did in Indi, Mayo and Warringah). And its strategy for dealing with this threat, will be to run fear-campaigns about Indys, hung parliaments and minority governments - with help from uncle Rupert.Which is why it's so important that more people understand what these things are in the lead up to this election. And it's why we made this Honest Government Ad.One of the things I love doing with this series is helping to improve literacy and understanding about legislation, policies and how government and elections work. So I've been working on this video for several months, trying to figure out the best possible way of explaining these rather complicated concepts to people ahead of the election.There is of course much more to say about this HGA, but I'll leave it for the podcast - which I'll share with you here shortly. (Ellen and I are currently editing it!)Meanwhile, if you haven't seen our Honest Government Ad about Preferential Voting, I encourage you to check it out. The Hung Parliament HGA acts as its sequel - explaining what happens when Not-Shit candidates are elected to the crossbench.I hope you enjoy this Honest Government Ad, and I'll catch you soon with the podcast for a more in-depth chat about well hung parliaments, Not-Shit candidates, and more...Till then, take careGiordanoLinks to the video:Watch on YouTubeWatch on FacebookWatch on TwitterWatch on Insta
