Australian Greens

The Australian Greens is a Left-wing political party in Australia and are considered to be the third force in Australian politics, being the third biggest political party represented in federal parliament. The party also has political representation in all states and territories except for Queensland.

The party usually draws in around 10% of the vote in federal elections, and opinion polls usually give the party around 10-15% of the vote. Support for the Greens has grown in recent years.

Due to the perceived lurch to the Right by the Australian Labor Party, many people on the Left consider the Greens as the only Progressive voice in Australian politics.
