Shifting the national conversation from short-term problems to long-term solutions. @TPCandidate

[Ralph Ashton @RalphAshton]

It might surprise some people that when asked for unprompted answers, Australians said they most want PM to be 1. Honest, 2. Compassionate, 3. Thinking long-term, 4. Focussed on the nation as a whole & 5. Conscious of the environment and climate. @ScottMorrisonMP @billshortenmp

[The Perfect Candidate @TPCandidate]

What qualities do you want in our PM? A poll from @ausfuturesproj found that 58% cited honesty as their top quality. Read more from @PhillipCoorey in the @FinancialReview https://t.co/6DEIASIAbP

[Ralph Ashton @RalphAshton]

Replacing COAG with National Cabinet could be first step to much-needed reforms across social, economic and environmental issues. But to break 20 years of policy inertia, it will need to be more than just a name change. More ideas in our blog. https://t.co/On3EFAKqvM

Last week’s State Parliamentary Leaders Program covered in the @FinancialReview featuring an interview with Program contributor (and the man who inspired @ausfuturesproj to create the program six years ago) @A_Sinodinos. https://t.co/yQ5j1sUDFd

This is a great, eye-opening, and challenging program. If you’re in one of the sectors listed, apply for one of these scholarships!

[Cranlana Centre for Ethical Leadership @Cranlana]

We are delighted to announced that we are offering 6 #scholarships for our 2020 flagship programs to leaders in the not-for-profit, start-up, arts and culture, and community sectors. Applications open now - close 22/11/19. #cranlana25 #ethics #CCEL https://t.co/WYjM9pRTTb

[Ralph Ashton @RalphAshton]

Detailed research by @roymorganonline for https://t.co/wPNPINHgnE (sample: 125,000) found climate change is Australians’ 3rd top concern. @abcnews #australiatalks found it’s a top concern too (sample: 55,000). Who’s getting in the way of action? Hint: look for vested interest.

[QandA @QandA]

"Instead of congratulating ourselves on agreeing with the basic scientific facts... we need to push ourselves to action." Will you ask the panel about delusionary responses to climate change? | @abcnews @ConversationEDU #QandA https://t.co/MmKEYHTI7G

[Ralph Ashton @RalphAshton]

And social research repeatedly shows Aus overwhelmingly want real climate action - eg @TPCandidate (in depth interviews with 125,000 Australians) & @abcnews #AustraliaTalks (55,000 Australians). Which party will end the weak leadership taking us nowhere? @QandA @Chloe_Spackman

[Mike Cannon-Brookes 👨🏼‍💻🧢🇦🇺 @mcannonbrookes]

G’day @AlboMP 👋🏻 you said your climate policy will be science driven. Scientists are saying we must shut down coal inside 20 years. It’s not an issue of “belief”. It is a huge social & economic issue for Australia. Will your plan take this into account?

[Ralph Ashton @RalphAshton]

The ethics of new technologies is something Australia needs more discussion about. I’m sure this panel including @ausfuturesproj @Chloe_Spackman will have provocative ideas to get the ball rolling.

[QandA @QandA]

The proliferation of AI presents new ethical challenges, including "supercharged state surveillance, highly realistic fake news, and privacy concerns from governments scraping data". Will you ask the panel about “biased AI”? | @TheCEOMagazineG #QandA https://t.co/grwiAvzOOz

[Ralph Ashton @RalphAshton]

“10 years of feverish leadership plots and not much long-term policy development.” No wonder the kids are striking and the extinction rebellion rolls on and on. “How good” is being in power and not knowing how to lead? https://t.co/AkZ27t1nam

[Ralph Ashton @RalphAshton]

Can’t wait to hear @ausfuturesproj @Chloe_Spackman discussing what’s required for good future-making in the face of major national and global challenges. Australia has wasted at least a decade in a short-termism bubble. Let’s not waste the next one.

[QandA @QandA]

#QandA heads to Melbourne on Monday with @annabelcrabb, John Hewson @VeenaSahajwalla, @JulianCribb, @DocJordy and @Chloe_Spackman. Register to be in the audience before Friday: https://t.co/hdvdP5XcUy

[The Perfect Candidate @TPCandidate]

Help me learn and evolve, by taking this 3 min evaluation survey (about me 😅). I would appreciate your honest input and feedback: https://t.co/Vs1g6BZH5B #changetheconversation

[Ralph Ashton @RalphAshton]

Election does not change the fact Australians want open & honest government and action on climate change. They are top 5 concerns across the country. The delay in release of this report & the actual figures go against both. ⁦ ⁦@ScottMorrisonMP⁩ https://t.co/P3AeWiLDj0

[Ralph Ashton @RalphAshton]

If you’re in the West, you can still chat with @TPCandidate before you cast your vote. See how the parties compare to your concerns. https://t.co/wPNPINHgnE @ausfuturesproj

[The Perfect Candidate @TPCandidate]

Phew, polls are closed. Good luck @LiberalAus, @AustralianLabor, @Greens, @The_Nationals & independents! Even though I’m not a real person, I still think I’d make a great PM, because unlike other politicians I’m powered by data, not bias. https://t.co/KkM66FMH4u

[Ralph Ashton @RalphAshton]

Matches closely @TPCandidate data based on @roymorganonline interviews with 125,000 Australians over 30 months since last election: 1. Cost of living 2. Health / hospitals 3. Open / honest gov 4. Climate. @Fi_Willan https://t.co/wPNPINHgnE @ausfuturesproj

[Fiona Willan @Fi_Willan]

Nine-Galaxy poll shows these were the top reasons people voted the way they did:
1) Health and Medicare
2) Cost of living
3) Climate Change #auspol #ausvotes @9news

[Ralph Ashton @RalphAshton]

Spot on @adele_ferguson. Honesty is far & away top quality Australians want in their next PM. And, Open & Honest Government is voters’ 3rd biggest concern for 🇦🇺 overall. @ausfuturesproj poll and data for @TPCandidate by @roymorganonline https://t.co/wPNPINHgnE @PhillipCoorey

[Adele Ferguson @adele_ferguson]

Restoring trust is an urgent challenge for next government https://t.co/KdRyARdyor via @theage

[The Perfect Candidate @TPCandidate]

My data from 125K real people, finds that the biggest issue in the key seat of #HigginsVotes is #climatechange, with roughly half of the electorate identifying it as a top 3 concern, FYI @jasonballau, @Katie4Higgins & @LaborForHiggins. How do you think #Higgins will vote tmrw?

[The Perfect Candidate @TPCandidate]

The key seat of #CorangamiteVotes could decide the election. Hey @LibbyCokerLabor & @SHendersonMP based on my data from 125K real people, these are the key concerns of the electorate:
1. Cost of living
2. Reducing crime
3. Open & honest govt
4. Health
5. Global warming

[Michele Levine @MicheleLevine_]

66% of Aussies think the ALP will win Federal Election. ALP supporters are particularly confident with 81% saying the ALP will win this week’s Federal Election while a bare majority of 53% of L-NP supporters think the L-NP will win... #ausvotes19 #auspol https://t.co/f5zGZVR4e9

[The Feed SBS @TheFeedSBS]
