About 100,000 voters across more than 1 million square kms - from the Goldfields to WA’s most southern coastlines.

The task at hand to echo the voices of O’Connor can’t be understated.

So we need your help please.

Spread the word.

@voicesofOConnor has arrived!

‘Forest collapse’ sounds like something from dystopian fiction. But we’re having our second forest collapse event where I live this year. WA has the most to lose from climate change and the most to gain by shifting to renewables. But our policies embed fossil fuels. #auspol

The suicide rate for people on Jobseeker is 3.5x higher than for the general population. Our safety net is failing to keep people safe.

See this excellent analysis from AIHW released quietly earlier this week:

This is climate change.

After the hottest summer on record in Western Australia, forests & bushland in the south west are dying. It's devastating wildlife.

We must urgently transition away from fossil fuels and double down on protecting nature.

To the five and a half million Australians who opened their hearts to walk with us, we say thank you.

We see you, we hear you and we read your messages of support which keep us on an unwavering path towards justice and peace.

It's not over. We’re not going to live in silence.
