Sylvia Hale, Greens MLC
If there is one right this society should cherish, it is the right to protest and speak out against injustice.
“The Greens are part of a growing voice that calls for community-based empowering solutions that redistribute wealth equitably. We recognise the important role of government intervention in the economy and public ownership of resources and institutions. We recognise that global challenges require both local and global solutions.” Sylvia Hale.
