Claire Miles (Independent)

Claire qualifies as an Outstanding Green Light Candidate

I have proudly served in the Royal Australian Air Force for over 27 years, dedicating my career to representing Australia both at home and abroad. The Air Force has given me the opportunity to live and work across the country, allowing me to deeply understand the unique challenges and strengths of different communities. Wearing the uniform every day has been a privilege—one that has reinforced my commitment to service, leadership, and making a difference.

Throughout my career, I have worked to keep our personnel healthy and safe while deployed, delivered critical public health advice across the Indo-Pacific, and gained extensive experience in strategic policy development. These experiences have sharpened my ability to think critically about the issues facing our country—how our decisions impact not only Australians but also our closest neighbours and the broader global community.

I am married to Mark, and together we have three wonderful children who are active members of our community. They are deeply engaged with the political landscape and want to see real action on climate as they witness the increasing frequency of extreme weather events and the risks to their health. Like many young Australians, they struggle to see a future as homeowners and, unsurprisingly, they have little confidence that the government is acting with integrity or putting their generation first. Their concerns drive me to push for a future that is sustainable, fair, and filled with opportunity for the next generation.

My life experiences and professional journey have shaped my pragmatic and centrist approach to politics. I stand for people, not party politics. I am not tied to any faction, which means I can focus solely on delivering practical solutions and real outcomes for our community.

At the core of my career has been a simple but powerful mission: connecting with people and advocating for better. As an Independent for Canberra, I am committed to listening to you and ensuring that your voice is heard in Parliament. In a minority government, our electorate could hold the balance of power, giving Canberra a stronger voice than ever before.

Claire endorses the 3R’s and supports the Climate Rescue Accord

Isabel Mudford (Greens)

Hey, I’m Isabel and I’m excited to be running for the seat of Canberra in the upcoming federal election for the ACT Greens! I’m a PhD candidate, social sector worker and LGBTIQA+ advocate.

Canberrans are people who care about each other, about the beautiful and precious environment that we get to live in, they care about inequality.

Because of this, I reckon Canberrans want a member of parliament who has the capacity to serve them in these values.

For too long Labor has taken Canberra for granted, and in this term alone has approved new coal and gas projects, failed to address the housing crisis and refused to raise the rate of Jobseeker.

By voting Greens into parliament, Canberrans can have a representative who will tackle the climate and cost of living crises, and reflect the progressive values of our electorate.
