Qld Steering Commitee Mission discussion
overarching goal is to get registered at a state level by mid-late 2019
- that's 200 members ASAP and another 100 in the year following
- late 2019 for reasons of electoral timing
Qld Announcement Email
Next meeting set for Tuesday 19th September at 9.15pm
- Emily can't do any earlier on Tuesdays so suggestion is we look at another day
Monthly outreach events / September 2017 flyer handout
flyer handouts: the default plan!
- anywhere on a public sidewalk (in BCC) is fine provided you're not blocking it or being a public nuisance
- *not* SouthBank
- but what about the City Gardens?
- good question (action item)
- but what about the City Gardens?
- *not* SouthBank
- do a flyer handout on a sidewalk adjacent/near community markets
some smaller markets might be very cheap to get into
need to get a proper A-frame - one side generic, one side issue-of-the-day
- we have the old election coreflutes, if they are still in good condition we can jury rig A frames out of them
- yep! AJ has 8
- miles: i have got the 2 pullup banners which are much more visible and compact than A frames
- yeah, but the wind kills those
- oh lol we need sandbags... or bricks
- yeah, but the wind kills those
Bigger events
- liquid democracy workshop
- cryptoparty
- party party: held in the naval museum in south brisbane? easier venue is thoughtworks... they have already offered to host us
- 48 hour film jam to write, direct and produce as many 30 second PPAU promotional/policy shorts as possible
- basic income script is ready to go, we just need someone who can videos good
- this one would work better animated, there are graphs and things, it's more for the Reddit market anyway
- i can edit, record, film and maybe borrow some sound gear, i dont have access to a decent camera though
- halfsies with Flux for an actual market stall? waiting on NC approval for joint promotions
- HSBNE (or other nominated recipient) fundraiser sausage sizzle at Bunnings...
- idea put on hold until we have more manpower
- Bunnings has a big lead time anyway
State Election guerilla activism ideas
- assuming we're not registered a) run support for another party candidate/s b) run opposition to some candidate/s
- big three are running in every electorate, KAP and PHON will be running in bogan, rural and regional areas, various independents will be everywhere, and the other minor parties we'll see closer to the day
- anything beyond simple endorsement will be a lot of resources for very little payoff
- unless you felt like running a membership campaign at the voting booth
- if we have enough members but just short of registering, we could also look into running as endorsed independants
Action Items
- AlexJ to ring Botanic Gardens about stall costs (and whether we could even be there) - Miles to send one more email to Supanova about Brisbane panel on November 10-12 - Miles to send out qld steering committee announcement mailout
