    A TOOLKIT: How carers in NSW can advocate for change www.caringfairly.org.au Caring Fairly is represented in NSW by: www.facebook.com/caringfairlycampaign @caringfairly @caringfairly WHO WE ARE Caring Fairly is a national campaign led by unpaid carers and specialist organisations that support and advocate for their rights. Launched in August 2018 and coordinated by Mind Australia, Caring Fairly is led by a coalition of over 25 carer support organisations, NGOs, peak bodies, and carers themselves. In NSW, Caring Fairly is represented by Mental Health Carers NSW, Carers NSW and Flourish Australia. We need your support, and invite you to join the Caring Fairly coalition. Caring Fairly wants: • A fairer deal for Australia’s unpaid carers • Better economic outcomes for people who devote their time to supporting and caring for their loved ones • Government policies that help unpaid carers balance paid work and care, wherever possible • Politicians to understand what’s at stake for unpaid carers going into the 2019 federal election To achieve this, we need your help. WHY WE ARE TAKING ACTION Unpaid carers are often hidden from view in Australian politics. There are almost 2.7 million unpaid carers nationally. Over 850,000 people in Australia are the primary carer to a loved one with disability. Many carers, understandly, don’t identify as a ‘carer’. Caring Fairly wants visibility for Australia’s unpaid carers. We are helping to build a new social movement in Australia to achieve this. Unpaid carers prop up Australian society. Like all Australians, unpaid carers have a right to a fair and decent quality of life.

  • The Yellow House Revisited
    University of Wollongong Research Online Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic) - Papers Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic) 2016 The elY low House revisited Michael K. Organ University of Wollongong, [email protected] Publication Details Organ, M. 2016, 'The eY llow House revisited', Aquarius Redux: Rethinking Architecture's Counterculture Conference, pp. 1-31. Research Online is the open access institutional repository for the University of Wollongong. For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] The elY low House revisited Abstract Martin Sharp's Yellow House represents a transitional phase in the countercultural movement within Australia, from the peace and love Utopian ideals of the Sixties through to the disenchantment and technological changes of the Seventies. Inspired by Vincent Van Gogh's similarly titled building and aborted artist community in the south of France during the 1880s, and the British Arts Lab movement of the late 1960s, a 3-storey Victorian era terrace building in Sydney was transformed into a work of art, living museum, experimental art gallery and performance space, under the liberating and libertine guidance of Martin Sharp - an artist who had experienced some of the extraordinary cultural changes taking place in London and Europe between 1966-69. The eY llow House was a unique expression of the counterculture's disparate elements through a redundant example of the built environment, namely a former art gallery and guest house facing the threat of demolition. Art and architecture fused with lifestyle and culture within a veritable rabbit warren of rooms and performance spaces. Though innately ephemeral, the venture succeeded, during its relatively short period of existence between May 1970 and March 1973, in providing an expressive outlet for a disparate group of counterculture artists, performers and commentators.

  • Election Inquiry to Hold Hearings in Brisbane and Tweed Heads
    MEDIA RELEASE 5 July 2005 JOINT STANDING COMMITTEE ON ELECTORAL MATTERS Chair: Tony Smith MP Deputy Chair: Michael Danby MP Inquiry into the conduct of the 2004 federal election Inquiry to probe conduct of federal election campaign An inquiry into the conduct of the 2004 federal election continues this week with public hearings in Brisbane and Tweed Heads on 6 and 7 July. Federal parliament’s Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters has a brief to examine the conduct of the 2004 federal election and any other matters related to Australia’s electoral law. Already the committee, which comprises members of the Government, Opposition and the Australian Democrats, has held hearings in regional Queensland to gather evidence of the major problems with postal voting that occurred in that area. The committee will continue its hearings program throughout July and August, starting in Brisbane (6 July) and Tweed Heads (7 July) before heading to Melbourne (25 July) and Adelaide (26 July), and Perth, Canberra and Sydney in August. In Brisbane, the committee will hear from several people who have made submissions to the inquiry, before heading to Tweed Heads, far north NSW, to examine the election campaign in the electorate of Richmond. Richmond was the fourth-closest election result in the country, with Labor’s Justine Elliot winning the seat from incumbent Larry Anthony (The Nationals) by 301 votes. The committee will explore some of the issues that submissions to its inquiry have raised about the election in Richmond, including party how-to-vote cards and the high rate of provisional voting.

  • Stubbornly Opposed: Influence of Personal Ideology in Politician's
    Stubbornly Opposed: Influence of personal ideology in politician's speeches on Same Sex Marriage Preliminary and incomplete 2020-09-17 Current Version: http://eamonmcginn.com/papers/Same_Sex_Marriage.pdf. By Eamon McGinn∗ There is an emerging consensus in the empirical literature that politicians' personal ideology play an important role in determin- ing their voting behavior (called `partial convergence'). This is in contrast to Downs' theory of political behavior which suggests con- vergence on the position of the median voter. In this paper I extend recent empirical findings on partial convergence by applying a text- as-data approach to analyse politicians' speech behavior. I analyse the debate in parliament following a recent politically charged mo- ment in Australia | a national vote on same sex marriage (SSM). I use a LASSO model to estimate the degree of support or opposi- tion to SSM in parliamentary speeches. I then measure how speech changed following the SSM vote. I find that Opposers of SSM be- came stronger in their opposition once the results of the SSM na- tional survey were released, regardless of how their electorate voted. The average Opposer increased their opposition by 0.15-0.2 on a scale of 0-1. No consistent and statistically significant change is seen in the behavior of Supporters of SSM. This result indicates that personal ideology played a more significant role in determining changes in speech than did the position of the electorate.
