Green Light Candidates

Hi, I’m Declan Brumfield,

I’m honoured to be your Greens candidate for Waite.

I’m running because politics should be a space where people feel heard, respected, and genuinely involved in the decisions that shape their lives. When we lead this way, we build a fairer, more confident future for everyone.

I grew up in the Adelaide Hills where I now co-own a local small business, started in 2019. Working directly with our staff, trades, families and community organisations has shown me how fairness, transparency and good planning help people thrive. Those same values should guide our politics.

South Australians are dealing with rising costs, unfair rents, and energy bills pushed up by years of political indecision and influence from the fossil fuel industry. Corporations are making record profits while people struggle to afford food, power and housing.

Supermarkets, banks, coal and gas companies are all playing a role in driving the cost-of-living crisis. But right now, the major parties aren’t taking that bigger picture seriously. People here deserve real opportunities to live healthy, secure and fulfilling lives.

I believe we can choose a better future. One where communities come before corporations, our environment is protected, and the government invests in the things people actually rely on.

In Waite we can choose to build that future – one where all of us thrive.

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.
