Ipswich West/ 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.

Mark Delaney (Greens)

My family and I have lived in Ipswich for over 25 years. Our three children were all raised here in Queensland’s greatest and oldest provincial city (in my humble view) but times have certainly changed.

My wife and I have volunteered serving the homeless and those doing it tough, providing mobile showers and laundry services in Queens Park for the last eight years. In the past we mostly helped people who were homeless, living on the streets. A decade on and with the cost of living crisis, we are seeing entire families living in cars, veterans, pensioners and single mothers now coming to Queens Park for assistance. We’re also noticing a huge increase in the rise in rental refugees flowing in from Brisbane.

Poverty is a political choice. The revolving door of the same major parties in State Parliament for many decades has created this housing crisis. We need a course correction and the Greens can make it happen at this State election.

Our community deserves leaders who listen, who will fight for dignity for all and who will deliver an inclusive way forward. The Greens don’t take donations from big corporations, which means I represent you and your needs – not big corporations.

We can fundamentally transform politics in Queensland. We can have free education and healthcare, free, frequent public transport, affordable housing and clean energy -all by making rich corporations finally pay their fair share in tax

That’s why I’m running to win. Will you support me?
