Max Chandler-Mather, recently appointed as executive director of The Greens Institute in Australia, advocates for 'progressive economic populism' to win back voters who are shifting towards One Nation, led by Pauline Hanson. He criticized the major political parties for being disconnected from the concerns of everyday Australians, attributing this to their reliance on corporate polling. In his new role, he plans to mobilize thousands of volunteers to conduct a comprehensive survey of economic and social conditions across the country, drawing on the success of his previous grassroots campaigns. Chandler-Mather points to the UK Greens' recent electoral successes as a model for engagement, emphasizing the need for the Greens to connect directly with voters to create a platform that resonates with their lives. He noted that many voters are frustrated with the current political system's focus on corporate profits over the needs of vulnerable populations. With One Nation gaining traction in recent polls, Chandler-Mather believes it is urgent for the Greens to step up and fill the void left by Labor and the Coalition, or risk losing further support.
