Electoral Guide
The 2022 election marks end of the third (and hopefully final) term of the Liberal-National government led by Scott Morrison PM. Prior to the election, Pirate Party Australia fused with the Science Party, Secular Party, Climate Emergency Action Alliance: Vote Planet and the Australian Climate Change Justice Coalition to form the Fusion Party. Together, we are contesting Senate and House seats across the country as a combined force - one to be reckoned with.
