Meet the Australian Democrats @ Woodford Markets (QLD)
Event description
Come one, come all! (If you're in Queensland)
The Australian Democrats are working across Australia to establish local branches in rural areas. We plan to field candidates in all states, and we need you to be part of that.
For the next few months (October 2021- March 2022), we will be at the Woodford Markets from 6:00 am until midday to answer all your questions, and sign you up for membership, if you like what you hear.
The stalls will be manned by Frank Mols and Glenn Crawford, two of our Queensland State Executive members.

About the Australian Democrats:
The Australian Democrats are Australia’s oldest and most successful minor party. Established in 1977, the party had senators in parliament for over 30 years.
The Democrats held the balance of power in the senate from 1980 to 2004, and the sole balance of power for 13 years of that time.
That’s longer than any other minor party in Australia’s history, and proof of how we kept the bastards honest.
The party was deregistered in 2015, after 38 years, but we continued to exist as an organisation. We regained federal registration in 2019, after just four years in the wilderness. Today, the party’s membership is the highest it has been in 10 years, and is still growing.
Our aim now is to become the party that represents rural Australia. We have established policies specific to sustainable agriculture and management of climate change, based on scientific evidence, and best practice.
We want to add to that policy by hearing what local communities need, and that’s where you come in.
If you are interested in helping to form a local branch in your town or shire, we would love to hear from you. Please send your expression of interest to info@democrats.org.au
We would also love to hear from people who want to become members. You can join us at www.democrats.org.au/membership
If you feel you don’t have the time to be part of a political party, you can still help us by making a donation to support our election campaign. Donations can be made at www.democrats.org.au/donate
We look forward to hearing from you because it is only with your help that we can re-enter parliament and keep the bastards honest.
