The Conversation AUNZ@aunz.theconversation.com · 3mo agoSocial media ‘influencers’ were dismissed in some quarters when they were allowed into the budget lock-up. But they carry huge clout and are here to stay.

More excellent 49.2 content: @phoebehayman.bsky.social examines political participation in teal independents' campaigns - are they outsiders challenging established power, or are they replicating elite dynamics? #OzStudies #auspol #WomenInPolitics #teals tinyurl.com/4aacnp7a

"Insiders and Outsiders" was wonderful to be a part of and offers a well-developed discussion of elites in Australia, particularly in politics. Thanks again to @sybiln.bsky.social & @chriswallace.bsky.social for their work as special editors for @jas-jozstudies.bsky.social

🚨 New piece in @aunz.theconversation.com from Amy Nethery and I: In this article, we consider 'How did Tim Wilson turn the tide in Goldstein?'. The answer: by becoming more like the teal campaign that defeated him in 2022. Read it in full here theconversation.com/liberal-part...
Liberal Party reclaims Goldstein – how Tim Wilson turned back the Teal tidal wave
The Liberal Party has reclaimed a seat lost to the Teals in 2022. Tim Wilson did it by adapting some of the campaign strategies used by the independents.

Some really great musings from Mark Riboldi here. He presents a really insightful set of ideas, questions and points on who is represented in Australian politics, in what ways, and how they get there - I'm very happy to have played a small role in sparking them!
Mark Riboldi@markriboldi.bsky.social · last yr.Some more election related thoughts - this time about representation, accountability and power. www.markriboldi.com.au/2025/05/02/w... (inspired by a reading of @phoebehayman.bsky.social's great new article in AJPS about the Teal wave in 2022).
The Liberal Party's women problem isn't new, yet the party has made little progress. My @aunz.theconversation.com article draws on findings about how women were recruited to independent campaigns to consider how the Liberal Party could attract more women. theconversation.com/the-liberals...
The Liberals’ women problem may seem intractable, but here’s what they could learn from the Teals
As the election campaign wraps up, the impression of the Liberals being out of touch with women persists, but some solutions can be found in their political rivals.

This is more likely about where and in what circumstances independents are electable. The electorates outlined here almost all ran independents in 2022, and these campaigns will build on this existing support and campaign infrastructure.
