Danny Lim is the sandwich board peace activist guy. He’s well known for wandering the streets wearing a sandwich board about his current issue du jour, and for the fact a case over one of his billboards found the word “cunt” is speech not generally offensive to the community.

He's run for office a number of times, starting with Strathfield Local Council in 2008, where he was elected for a 2 year term. He’s previously run federally in 2016 (getting 465 votes) and for NSW state upper house in 2019 (receiving 644 votes).

In terms of policies, I was able to locate one or two documents.

Lim is upset about the Coalition government’s response to disasters and broken promises to the electorate. He wants lower taxes for workers, higher taxes for corporations, and a Basic Living Wage. He wants an ICAC, climate action and renewable energy, and enactment of Uluru Statement from the Heart. More funding for universal childcare, free dental on Medicare for disadvantaged Australians (not everyone), better pay rates, NBN upgrades for FTTP for all premises, and more funding for the ABC and SBS. He wants a Republic, reduce the voting age to 16, a Charter of Rights, and fixed 4 year federal parliamentary terms. Essentially, it’s a grab bag of one line left slogans.

Lim is harmless but also I cannot see any serious reason you’d vote for him in preference to any of the other centre-left socially liberal parties all over the ballot this election.
