As Australia approaches a pivotal election, the prospect of a hung Parliament looms large, with the Greens aggressively pushing for power sharing that could dramatically reshape our nation's future.

In this critical moment, the election of Family First senators becomes more important than ever to safeguard the values and interests that underpin our society.

Family First has announced that seasoned advocates Lyle Shelton and Bernie Finn are running for the Senate, bringing with them a wealth of experience and a steadfast commitment to protecting Australian families and traditional values.

A South Australian Senate candidate will be announced soon, further strengthening our team dedicated to promoting policies that serve the common good.

The Greens' agenda poses significant risks to Australia's social and economic fabric.

With 11 Senators and four members of the House of Representatives, they are becoming more powerful.

Their policies prioritise extreme ideologies over practical solutions, threatening industries that provide jobs and stability for countless Australian families.

Greens leader Adam Bandt has made it clear this week that in what he calls a shared-power parliament, his party will push hard for radical changes, stating, "The Greens will be pushing for no new coal and gas in a shared-power parliament."

Such positions jeopardise our nation's energy security and economic prosperity, especially at a time when reliable and affordable energy is crucial.

Family First stands as a bulwark against such extreme policies, advocating for balanced and sensible approaches that consider both environmental stewardship and economic reality.

Our party believes in supporting industries that are essential to Australia's prosperity while also promoting sustainable practices that protect our natural heritage for future generations.

Moreover, the Greens' social policies often undermine traditional family structures and values that have long been the cornerstone of Australian society.

Family First is committed to defending these values, ensuring that policies enacted at the federal level strengthen, rather than erode, the family unit.

In a hung Parliament scenario, every seat counts, and the presence of strong, principled voices is essential to steer our nation towards a stable and prosperous future.

Electing Family First senators like Lyle Shelton and Bernie Finn will provide a critical counterbalance to the Greens' radical agenda, ensuring that common-sense policies prevail and Australian families remain at the heart of our nation's governance.

Together, we can uphold the values that have made Australia strong and ensure a bright and secure future for all Australians.

Vote Family First and put families first in our nation's priorities.
