GREENS ANNOUNCE FEDERAL CANDIDATE FOR RICHMOND
NSW Greens MP and lead Senate candidate Lee Rhiannon will join local
Greens members today (Sunday) at 11am in the Mullumbimby Civic Hall to
announce local publisher Joe Ebono as the Greens candidate for the
federal seat of Richmond.
“The Greens have a large support base in northeast NSW, including on
Tweed and Byron Councils, and Joe is an excellent candidate to
represent them,” Ms Rhiannon said.
“Aged care, overdevelopment, employment and a sustainable future are
key issues concerning people living in northeast NSW.
“Joe provides a strong voice on the issues that most concern residents
in the area,” Ms Rhiannon said.
“Joe Ebono is a publisher, broadcaster and performer who previously
stood as the Greens candidate in Richmond in 2007. Founder of the
Ebono Institute, he is the publisher and editor of a number of books
about sustainable living and The Generator, a news service and radio
show.
“It is a great privilege to be the Greens candidate for Richmond,” Mr
Ebono said.
“I plan to improve on the Greens’ strong showing in 2007, and provide
local residents a real alternative to Justine Elliot and her Labor
government.
“Unlike the old parties, the Greens understand that aged care is about
more than bed numbers. Aged care is about maintaining links with the
community.
“Community consultation is at the core of Greens policies and
initiatives to build a sustainable future for an energy challenged
world.
“Greens policies and values get a lot of traction in Northeast NSW
where issues such as unemployment, rampant development and protecting
the environment are very important to people.
“I will be campaigning hard for a sustainable future for the northeast
NSW,” Mr Ebono said.
