Ferny Grove/ 2024 Queensland state election
Here is a mock up of a Traffic Light Voting Guide. The real time guides for each electorate will be available after the ballot draw which will happen either on Thursday October 10th or Friday October 11th. We will prepare the guides over the weekend ready for pre-polling on Monday October 14th. Once we upload them to the website, you will be able to download, print, and fill them in at home and then take them to the polling booth with you to easily transfer your choices onto the ballot paper. Alternatively, take your phone with you when you head off to vote, and you can then access our advice on the screen.
In the meantime, you can scroll down this page to check out the Green Light Candidate profiles in your electorate.
The team at Vote Climate One encourages all candidates to support the 3Rs and the Climate Rescue Accord to underpin any decisions in the Queensland Legislative Assembly relating to action on the climate emergency.
If you have any information which may inform our candidate assessments please use our contact form at the bottom of this page or phone Rob on 0427 580803

Elizabeth McAulay (Greens)
As a family and domestic violence lawyer who has worked with some of the most vulnerable members of our community, I have seen the way our political system is failing.
For too long we have had governments that offer band aid solutions to problems, which do nothing to address the systemic issues plaguing our society. We are in the midst of a cost of living crisis, a housing crisis, and a climate crisis.
If nothing changes, things get worse. Rental inflation is reaching heights not seen since the global financial crisis, and it is expected to stay this way until 2026. We need an urgent rent freeze and ongoing cap on rent increases, and to build good quality public homes, so every Queenslander has a secure place to call home.
We need urgent action on skyrocketing costs of living. We’ll cut the cost of groceries by breaking up the Coles/Woolworths duopoly, introduce free public transport with more reliable services, and take back control of our economy with public ownership of essential services.
We’ll make big corporations pay their fair share and fund a better life for all Queenslanders by building 100,000 new homes and making our schools and healthcare genuinely free.
For a sustainable future for Queenslanders, we need to take action on the climate crisis.
Labor and the LNP are in lock step on approving new coal and gas projects, and allowing mining corporations to export the wealth that comes from our resources without paying tax. Instead, we should ban new coal and gas projects with a just transition for workers, and use our massive resource wealth for the benefit of all Queenslanders, like investing in our renewable energy future, fully funded education and healthcare.
LNP and Labor continue to take corporate donations and have repeatedly shown that they will act in the interest of their donors over the interests of Queenslanders. The Greens refuse corporate donations, so we’ll fight for you.
I’m looking forward to meeting as many people in Ferny Grove as I can over the next few months, so please get in touch to let me know how we can work together for a future for all of us.
