By Jackie TurnerThe first few weeks of this marathon election campaign have been gruelling for trans people – particularly trans women and girls – as our lives have once again become the subject of a cooked-up debate. But if candidates think attacking our community is a vote winner, they’re sorely mistaken.The research found that, in both seats, a candidate who expressed views critical of the LGBTIQI people would stand to lose twice as many votes as they’d secure. Conversely, there is overwhelming support for our community, with over 75 percent of people agreeing that trans people deserve the same rights and protections as other Australians, and two in three agreeing that religious schools should not be able to fire someone or expel a student for being transgender. In addition, LGBTIQ+ votes can’t be taken for granted. With over 5,600 LGBTIQI respondents, our community election survey is one of the largest surveys of its kind in Australia.
Rainbow Votes 2022 indicates the voting intentions and priorities of at least 850,000 LGBTIQI voters across the country. It found that, after a series of high-profile debates about our lives, LGBTIQI voters have become sceptical of the parties standing for election and are yet to make up their mind who to vote for. Around one in five LGBTIQI respondents who voted for Liberal, National, Labor or the Greens last election are reconsidering their vote this election. One in three LGBTIQI voters are either undecided or reconsidering who they will vote for. For undecided respondents, LGBTIQI issues are the most important consideration in determining who they vote for, with the strongest support for removing religious exemptions in anti-discrimination laws, ending damaging LGBTQI conversion

By Daniel RashidOne of Australia’s greatest horrors is its policy of mandatory detention, wherein for-profit concentration camps are run offshore to put asylum seekers in an indefinite lock up with no hope for reprieve. Many have fled from severe danger ranging from wars, or are escaping homophobic or transphobic violence and then put through awful sexuality tests by our government.This means refugees resort to increasingly desperate measures. Many refugees on the journey here expend huge amounts of their life savings on boats that the government has no obligation to report.
