Putting community at the centre of politics

Case studies: Curtin and North Sydney

Kerry O’Brien leads this fascinating discussion with Kate Chaney, Kylea Tink and Cathy McGowan. It provides honest and detailed insights into how the current Community Independent MPs are staying true to their values of community, courage, compassion and integrity and what putting community at the centre of politics means in practice for their electorates. They discuss how they are working collaboratively with the crossbench and the government to debate, develop and improve policy and what the 24/7 life of a politician is like. Cathy compares her experience when she entered parliament 10 years ago and how much progress has been made by Community Independent MPs.
