Tim Kirchler

Socialist Alliance candidate for Moncrieff

Why I am standing

I'm running in this year's federal election because I believe it's time that we in Australia gave EVERYONE a fair go! I want workers, especially those in low-paid or casual jobs, to feel secure about not being fired at whim. I want people to get all the health care they need, regardless of their ability to pay. I want a livable planet for future generations. And I don't want people who have fled from their own countries in fear of their lives to be locked up behind razor wire.
