Sustainable Australia Party  

Sustainable Australia Party is an independent community movement from the political centre, with a positive plan for an economically, environmentally and socially sustainable Australia. We believe in a science and evidence-based approach to policy - not an extreme left or right ideology.

Campaign issues

Sustainable Australia Party has three (key) campaign priorities - protect our environment, stop overdevelopment and stop corruption:

Protect our environment

• Better manage our water security
• Adopt a properly enforced national biodiversity and native species program
• Act on climate change

Stop overdevelopment

• Better planning to stop overdevelopment and the systemic corruption in the WA planning system [1]. SAP will fight for:
  • Proper community consultation including local citizen juries
  • Infrastructure provision before new housing
  • Lower state-driven population growth targets
• Save the pristine headland at Gnarabup Beach from a hotel development
• Let the Martuwarra Fitzroy River run free
• Save Ocean Reef from a grossly oversized marina development
• Stop the sprawl in Perth Hills
• Don't dam the Donnelly River

Stop corruption

• Ban all property developer political donations at state and federal level [2]
• Stop foreign ownership of our housing, farms and land

And there's much more...
