Introduction
Sustainable Australia Party is an independent community movement with a science and evidence-based approach to policy - not a left or right wing ideology.
Our mission is to de-corrupt politics for a fair and sustainable Australia.
For a fair and sustainable Australia
We are often asked what the difference is between SAP and other political parties or candidates, including the Greens. SAP is the only political movement that puts our community and environment first[1] - therefore our health, economy and quality of life.
The housing crisis is a prime example of how only SAP puts our community and environment first. Whereas the Liberal, Labor, National, Greens and Teal groups support chasing ever more environmentally-destructive hyper-demand with ever more environmentally destructive hyper-supply, SAP has the sustainable solutions that both solve the housing crisis (fairness) and protect our environment (sustainability). How? We address all the major demand-side root causes of the housing crisis (see video below).
Our #EnvironmentFirst plan:
Stop corruption (including in politics, planning and development)
Stop overdevelopment (including housing sprawl and inappropriate high-rise)
Stabilise population (mainly by returning annual permanent immigration to normal[2])
There's much more... See Policies.
Preferences? No deals!
SAP contests a range of federal, state/territory and local government elections. As an independent community movement, after you Vote 1 for Sustainable Australia Party, we ask that you decide where to direct your own preferences. Don't let any party or independent candidate tell you where to direct your preferences - i.e. don't follow their how-to-vote cards! See 'Preferences' under 'About us' in our website menu.
[1] Oxford Dictionary - Environment means "the [natural and built] surroundings or conditions in which a person, animal, or plant lives or operates." This includes our home, street, neighbourhood, suburb, region, country and planet.
[2] SAP is a pro-immigration party. As part of our #EnvironmentFirst plan, we simply support returning Australia's annual permanent immigration program to the normal Twentieth Century average level of 70,000 p.a. This would be non-discriminatory and have no impact on our humanitarian (refugee) intake.
