Australia election 2022

Out of the wreckage of Morrison’s Liberal rule comes a new political era for Australia.

Politicians will no doubt continue to wrap themselves in high-vis vests, but come election day it is women who will make themselves seen.

Old anxieties about Australia’s vulnerabilities remain relatively unchanged, but the new geopolitical order is fundamentally different. 

It is not just the Pacific region angered by Prime Minister Morrison’s unchanged coal-loving stance. Next month, he will have to answer to the Australian electorate on this critical issue.

Using national security to win over voters is not an uncommon strategy, but Scott Morrison is banging the national security drum more furiously than ever as he slumps in the polls. 

At least 13 independent female candidates have launched campaigns on similar platforms focused on climate change, corruption, and women’s rights.

With an election to be held by May 2022, the pre-election period in Australia is seeing a surge of maneuvering among independents gunning for Liberal seats.

Some accused the Australian prime minister of lying as his 2022 campaign unofficially kicked off with a massive backflip on electric vehicle policies.
