Green Light Candidates
Harmony Lindsay (LCQ)
Harmony is an Outstanding Green Light Candidate
Policy StatementsHARMONY LINDSAY is a 19-year-old Wakaid Badulgal (Torres Strait Islander) young lady, and a proud lesbian. Tragically at the tender age of 6, she lost her father to suicide. She was raised by her mother.
She currently works in customer service, but is looking to a career change to something in animal services or politics!
Harmony believes the top three concerns among young people at the moment, housing affordability, employment and climate change, could all be addressed by legalising cannabis and freeing up the hemp industry.

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?
