Alice Shore is the Animal Justice candidate for Schubert.

Since the age of about four, Alice Shore has been speaking out on behalf of animal rights. She joined Animal Liberation in the 1970s in NSW, was one of the founders of Animal Liberation SA in the early 1980s, and has been a passionate advocate for animals ever since.

Alice has lived most of her life in rural South Australia and has a special interest in farming. Over the years, she has developed an understanding of the complexities of farming and the challenges faced by those making a living in our rural communities.

This has resulted in her developing a dialogue with local farmers, addressing them at meetings (Wunkar). By co-operating with the Farmers’ Union, Alice was able to produce a
documentary about animal husbandry and the need to stop live sheep export.

Alice firmly believes more should be done to help farmers transition away from animal agriculture towards more plant-based food production that earns them a decent income, while protecting our environment and protecting South Australia’s food future.

A retired teacher, Alice loves talking about animals and the environment. She was a regular guest on the ABC Country Hour and the ABC Religious Hour. She has had numerous
articles and poems about animal rights published in literary magazines.

These days, she can be found conversing with the public at the markets in Schubert about what we can all do to make South Australia a better place for people and animals.

Hi, I’m Bev Morris

I am pleased to be representing the Greens in the electorate of Schubert. Living in the North Eastern Barossa Ranges places me at the heart of the Barossa, Southern Barossa and the Adelaide Hills.

I have worked across the electorate in health, disability and education, gaining a deep understanding of the challenges our region faces. I have also served as a Barossa Councillor. My background in finance and business, supported by a Graduate Certificate in Public Sector Management, equips me to navigate complex policy and budgeting issues.

I have personally experienced water security challenges and witnessed decreasing rainfall, alongside extreme fire and weather events that have affected our people, infrastructure, animals, and farms.

Rapid population growth is changing our communities, and my Degree in Psychological Science and Sociology gives me insight into the social and psychological impacts these changes can have on residents.

Public transport and its affordability remain a critical issue. Government-subsidised fares would greatly benefit our region, and I believe extending the electrified train line from Gawler would help ease this problem.

As your Greens candidate, I assure you these issues are central to Greens policies and my commitment to take meaningful action

This moment demands strong climate action.

If you’re worried about the climate crisis, you’re not alone.

Millions of us are worried about rising power bills, environmental destruction and protecting our families from extreme weather. 

Labor has approved over 25 more coal and gas projects while in office, while the Liberals’ commitment to fossil fuels remains stronger than ever.

Both take millions in donations from coal and gas corporations to fund their election campaigns. They’re working for their donors, not for people, our planet or the future.

With the Greens in the balance of power in the Senate, this parliament has a real opportunity to deliver strong climate action. 

Our plan for ambitious climate action

Our wins on climate and clean energy have shown what’s possible. Now it’s time to push further and lead the world in the move away from coal and gas.

  1. Stop new coal and gas.
  2. Expand publicly-owned renewable energy.
  3. End the billions in handouts to coal, oil and gas corporations.
  4. End native forest logging.
  5. Lower power bills by transitioning to more reliable, clean energy.
  6. Subsidise solar & batteries for homes & businesses.
  7. End fossil fuel subsidies for all industries except agriculture.
  8. Save koalas and our wildlife from extinction.
  9. Create thousands of jobs during the transition.
  10. Provide grants and low-interest loans to help households and small businesses electrify, install solar batteries, and cut emissions and energy bills.
