Teal independents: Difference between revisions

'''Teal independents''', simply known as '''teals''' and also called '''community independents''', are a loosely-aligned group of [[Centrism|centristleft wing]], [[Independent politician|independent]] or minor party politicians in [[Australian politics]]. They have been characterised as strongly advocating for increased action to mitigate [[climate change]] by reducing greenhouse gas emissions along with improved political integrity and accountability. They also generally share [[socially liberal]] outlooks, including on issues such as [[LGBT rights]], and have harnessed [[grassroots]] campaigning to achieve strong swings towards them.
