I'll be blunt. The major parties will do everything to rig the game to keep it closed to people like me. That should frighten the bejesus out of you. It frightens me. You see what they do when they're allowed to get away with it. But real people aren't going to get elected if you leave it up to chance, or leave it up to someone else to do somethjing about it. So if you want the majors having absolute control, do nothing and you'll get it. If you want actual human beings keeping them in line, you need to help make it possible for regular people to compete. And that costs money. It's not coming from lottery tickets, I'll tell you that much

Hello beautiful!

It's Tammy here...

I’ve been working with Jacqui for seven years, so I know a bit about winning elections.

I’m here to tell you, I’m up against the craftiest and most experienced politician of his generation. I want to give Tasmania a different breed of politics, but we’ll only get that if we fight for it.

people have signed up to help me.

Those are three words I believe in!

That's why I want to be a Senator

Picture what a politician looks like, and you probably don’t picture me. Fair enough.

But we’ve spent the better part of 30 years electing people who all look the same, who all talk the same, and we wonder why nothing changes.

Jacqui Lambie’s shown me that it’s possible to be a different kind of politician, and it’s not a mystery.

We need regular people to put their hands up.

That’s what it takes. That’s what I’m doing.

I don’t promise to be the best political operator in Canberra. If that’s what you’re after, there are other options on the Senate voting ticket.

What I promise is that when I make a promise, I’ll keep it. Hold me to it. I can’t lie. It’s not in my nature. I can’t harm someone. I can’t rip someone off. I can’t take a shortcut just because it’s easier, if it means the job doesn’t get done right. I never have. It doesn’t sit right with me.

I’ve worked in paddocks, factories, offices. I’ve helped people who’ve been out of work for years. I’ve driven them to their job interview myself. I’ve talked them through the nerves, and I’ve seen them get the job.

The way I did it? I didn’t change their resumes. I didn’t change their skills or talents, likes or dislikes, strengths or weaknesses. All I changed was how they felt about themselves. I made them realise that this job they’re applying for is something they can really do, and do well.

Because when you’ve got someone who cares about you in your corner, who’s backing you up and who’s lifting you up, you can do way more than you can do on your own.

I want to back Jacqui Lambie up. I believe in her. I believe in what we can achieve together. So I’m putting my hand up. And I’m asking you to back me.

Tammy Tyrrell

P.S. If you want to back me:

I've lived in Tassie my whole life.

Working for Jacqui has opened my eyes to what really goes on in Parliament.

Now, to quote her...

It's time to put my boots on and do something about it!

A WORD FROM JACQUI

Tammy’s worked alongside me for eight years

I need her in the Senate

I trust her completely.

She’s the kind of friend everybody needs. I’m lucky I get to work with her too. She’s the real deal. She’s never let me down. Never once has she lied to me. She’s honest, fierce, decent, kind and real.

I’ve been in Parliament long enough to see what it’s sorely missing, and let me tell you: it’s missing Tammy Tyrrell.

Jacqui
