Hi, I’m Ellen. I'm a Kensington local, mum of three, and your voice for Melbourne in the Victorian State Parliament.
Take down the Flemington Racecourse flood wall
People’s homes and lives should be more important than protecting the horse racing and gambling industries.
Save Live Music
Music venues in Victoria are under enormous pressure. Sign the petition to save live music.
Save Public Housing
The Victorian Labor Government plans to demolish all 44 public housing towers in Melbourne and sell off the land to developers for mostly private housing. Help stop the sell-off of public housing.
Keep Melbourne liveable
We deserve a city that’s planned and built for people, not big property developers.
Upgrade South Kensington Station
South Kensington Station is dangerously narrow, inaccessible and shelters are completely inadequate.
More funding for public health and maternity care
Everyone should be able to access quality health care, regardless of how much they earn.
Arts everywhere for everyone
The arts bring us joy, and inspire deep thinking and connection with each other.
Get dirty money and dodgy deals out of politics
Our democracy shouldn’t be placed in the hands of gambling giants, fossil fuel companies or property developers.
Support for local schools
Everyone should have access to a good education at a great local school.
Better public transport, bike lanes, and footpaths
Public and sustainable transport is good for people and the climate.
Justice for First Nations people
There is still much work to be done to achieve justice for First Nations peoples in Naarm and across Victoria.
End homelessness and make housing affordable
Victoria needs a housing system that puts people before profit.
Climate action now
Labor and the Liberals are making the climate crisis worse by backing more coal and gas.
ABOUT ME
With my background in science, and now as a mum of three young children, taking action on climate change is what drives me.
Before I was elected as the state MP for Melbourne, I trained as a scientist and was the CEO of a national climate change non-profit organisation.
Now I’m fighting for action on climate change, more affordable housing, and a fairer society in the Victorian Parliament.
