I’m a doctor and urogynaecologist passionate about women’s health.
As a doctor, I see the impact the cost-of-living crisis is having on people’s health every day.
People putting off going to the doctor because they can’t find one that bulk bills.
People who can’t afford to go to the dentist or specialist at all.
People skipping meals just to pay their rent or mortgage.
Our cost of living crisis is a health crisis — and it’s all because Labor and the LNP let big corporations rip us all off in exchange for massive political donations.
Just in Queensland, the major parties have taken $25.3 million in donations in the last decade, so of course they will never stand up for regular people.
But it doesn’t need to be this way.
The Greens are fighting to take back control of our economy for everyday people.
We don’t take donations from big corporations and that’s why we are the only party with a real plan to tackle the cost of living crisis and the climate crisis.
We’ll make those big corporations pay their fair share so we can fully fund our schools, hospitals and essential public services.
We’ll cap rents, slash mortgages with a public bank, and set up a public builder to build 100,000 public homes to give everyone a safe, secure and affordable place to live.
And we’ll stop the thousands of new coal and gas mines Labor and the LNP want to open.
