* The one big change they've made since 2022 is that they now support a
Universal Basic Income. Like Fusion it's at $500/week, which is wealth
I've rarely ever known, but apparantly I'm living is desperate poverty.
Unlike Fusion, they link to a long page explaining their reasoning behind
adopting this policy and how they want to tacke the challenge of funding
it:

I'd be satisfied with a much lower starting figure and an intention to work
up to a 'livable' income, but anyway it's something I like and excellent to
see a party that has some plan for implementing it rather than just jotting
it onto a vague wish list. I'm not so sure about their idea that a UBI would
give the government a chance to improve environmental management just becuase
they wouldn't have to spend so much time working on targeted assistance and
welfare schemes. But those are most of what the major parties are talking
about at this election, so maybe they do have a point about it all being a
huge distraction.
Besides UBI, their policies seem to have hardly changed since 2022, so I think
everything I wrote about them then still applies, and I still like them a lot.
