We are Gold Coast residents who care about our community being heard and concerns being actioned. We want to see genuine representation for our part of the Gold Coast in Parliament and for politicians to listen to and be more accountable to our community.
We are mobilising because we know our electorate is missing out and we are being taken for granted.
Why? Because Moncrieff is considered a safe LNP seat. As an example, during the Morrison government’s $2.8 billion grants system, Moncrieff only received $1.63 million. If this had been evenly distributed across the 151 seats in Parliament, Moncrieff would have received $18 million. This happened despite funding favouring Coalition seats. Being a so-called “safe seat” seems to be a bad deal for us.
Where is Moncrieff?
Our electorate is located in central Gold Coast, between the electorates of Fadden in the north, Wright and Forde to the west and McPherson to the south. Moncrieff covers the area from Miami to Main Beach and from Surfers Paradise out to Highland Park. According to the 2021 Census, our electorate's population is 182,000 with 124,000 adults enrolled to vote.
