In the ACT there are three sides, of course, and the Greens are stand outs for two important reasons: they do not take corporate money (also a Pocock hobby horse, FWIW) and have been unrelenting in their support for the uniform application of trad conservative concepts like Rule of Law, International Conventions (Laws of War, Genocide, Rights of the Child etc) uniformally ignored by Lab and Lib during the war crimes and genocide inflicted by Israel on the people of Palestine.

Lab and Lib will say and do anything to demonstrate fealty to power (just like Ryan and Spender) and the Greens do not. Values matter.

To that end I struggle to see what the ideologically murky Indies offer that that the Greens do not.
