    P lu n g in g 5 into politics Should sports stars dive in? When you consider what makes a successful politician, three things stand out: to succeed, a politician must be reasonably popular, they should have a fairly high profile, and most important of all, they have to be credible. If that’s basically what it takes, there’s a select band of Australians boots. "Some translate their public standing into lucrative who have all the right qualifications in spades - Australia’s top sponsorship deals, or a career as a commentator," she says. sports people. Jackie Kelly says sitting politicians are lucky that more elite sports Most of our best sportsmen and women boast the sort of profile people don’t attempt to win seats in Parliament. “They’d do very and popularity a politician would kill for, and it seems everything a well,” she says, "at least initially. However, when they came to put sports star utters, no matter how banal, finds its way into the media. themselves up for a second term, they'd be assessed just like every other politician." It’s surprising then that so few of our top athletes have translated their public standing into a political career. The Member for the ACT seat of Fraser, Bob McMullan, has never represented his country in sport, but the Shadow Minister for There are some notable exceptions, among them cycling great Aboriginal Affairs is a self-confessed sports nut. He also knows what Sir Hubert Opperman who represented the seat of Corio in the political parties are looking for in their candidates, having served as House of Representatives between 1949 and 1967, and held an ALP State and National Secretary before entering Parliament.

  • You Can't Be What You Can't See— Women
    Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory 49th Presiding Officers and Clerks Conference Wellington, New Zealand 8-13 July 2018 You can’t be what you can’t see— Women in the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory Paper to be presented by Joy Burch, MLA, Speaker of the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory Page 1 of 10 ‘Any way you look at it there are many, many women who are capable of that job of leadership and making an impact at every level of government and I think we should see more”1 “Women in politics do make a difference and they can change people’s perceptions of politics – they also change the structural discrimination of old-style political systems and parliamentary conventions”2 1 Rosemary Follett, ‘Rosemary Follett and Kate Carnell reunited to sight sexism in politics’ Canberra Times 7th March 2015. 2 Katy Gallagher, ACT Chief Minister, katygallagher.net/blog blog post, 1st October 2014. Page 2 of 10 Introduction Women have played an important and prominent role in the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory since its establishment in 1989. The ACT was the first state or territory to have a woman as its Head of Government. In the Second Assembly, the positions of Speaker, Chief Minister and Leader of the Opposition were all held by women. Perhaps most significantly, at the Territory election for the Ninth Assembly in 2016, thirteen women were elected to the Assembly. It was the first time in Australian history that a majority of women had been elected to a parliament and one of the first jurisdictions in the world to have done so.3 It was also notable that the voters of the ACT returned this result even though only 36 percent of the total 140 candidates that stood for election were women.

  • 27 June 2006 EDITORIAL: a More Sustainable
    27 June 2006 EDITORIAL: A more sustainable Australia needs better public policy By Michael Mullins & James Massola The online magazine New Matilda may be Eureka Street's competition, but it shares with us the conviction that better public policy is the key to achieving a fairer and more sustainable future. The long-term good of the nation is at the heart of New Matilda’s recently-launched Reclaiming our Common Wealth. It's a campaign that aims to inject into a regime of policy development, a degree of rigour, and values such as good citizenship and ethical responsibility. The questions posed, and suggestions made, go beyond the ‘What’s in for me?’ approach that dominates our national Zeitgeist. The questions are more profound, and more vexing, than current political leaders would have us believe. The document Reclaiming our Common Wealth would see our laws formed not on the basis of whim, or political expediency, but something much deeper. During its 16 year history, Eureka Street has tried to play a part in setting the agenda for national public debate. We have not gone to the extent of formulating policy like New Matilda. But many of our articles have policy input as their underlying agenda. For instance, in this issue Frank Brennan highlights the need to work out policies that address ethical questions that accompany the medical breakthroughs promised by embryonic stem cell research. He warns against the dangers of a fundamentalism or intransigence in some religious leaders, that is disengaged from the conscience of the nation. But the same time, he says some of the promoters of the research 'have played fast and loose with the processes of political deliberation.' If Brennan sees fundamentalism and impatience as the enemies of good policy, Francis Sullivan identifies timidity and loss of nerve as major stumbling blocks.
