Endorsement of Nicole Arrowsmith as Moncrieff's Community-Backed Independent Candidate

Voices of Moncrieff is endorsing experienced leader, community builder and mum, Nicole Arrowsmith, as its community-backed independent candidate for the Federal seat of Moncrieff at the 2025 Federal election.

Our announcement follows an extensive search that involved months of listening to locals and an intensive selection process of an independent voice to be answerable to our community, not party politics.

In December 2023, Voices of Moncrieff embarked on a community listening project to understand local priorities and concerns. A large majority of participants (71%) said they were not being well-represented in Canberra, citing a lack of action on local priorities and a lack of trust and confidence in politicians. 

“There is real desire in our community for something different to what the major parties offer. Locals are frustrated at being overlooked because we live in what’s considered a ‘safe’ seat for the LNP”, said Voices of Moncrieff spokesperson Karen Aguilera.

“I am humbled to have the endorsement of Voices of Moncrieff. What I know with certainty is that everything about this movement is right. It is in service to our community, is serious about our future and holds our role as custodians to the environment in the highest order”, Nicole Arrowsmith said.

“I’m not a career politician - I’m a working professional who will step up and tackle our unique challenges. As a community independent I’m backed by a movement of locals determined to put people over party politics. This is a new way of doing politics where everyone has a say and together, we can collaborate and build the future we choose”.

Tomorrow, Sunday 2 February, we will be officially launching Nicole Arrowsmith as our community-backed independent candidate for the 2025 Federal election.
