I am voting with many issues in mind

Although I believe that there has been an increase in antisemitism, I believe that there is more of an increase in neo-Nazi and anti-diversity behaviour and beliefs in Australia and around world as a whole. I believe that diversity ensures harmony and I aim to use my vote to ensure Australia remains a safe country for all now and in the future. I am voting with housing, education, Indigenous rights, healthcare, LGBTQIA+ rights, Women’s safety and the cost of living in mind, IN ADDITION TO my Judaism and the security of our community. Most importantly I believe that the threat of climate change is real and hope to use my vote to ensure the world that I leave in the future will be in a position where the next generation can have the same value of life as we have had.
