Let's address common misconceptions about independent representation
"A vote for an independent is a wasted vote"
Independents often hold the balance of power in parliament, giving them significant influence over legislation. In the last parliament, independents were crucial to passing several major bills.
"Independents can't get anything done"
Independents have successfully introduced Private Member's Bills, secured funding for their electorates, and influenced government policy across multiple parliaments.
"Independents make parliament unstable"
Independent-supported parliaments have proven remarkably stable, with many running full terms. Independents typically support supply and confidence while evaluating other legislation on its merits.
