Leader @SciencePartyAus criticising women for not joining his party's flagship event, @ScienceMarchAu https://twitter.com/jamesjansson/status/854264174846685184 … #marginsci

The broader conversation today
@ErinVaughnAZ is that the@SciencePartyAus has 5 members in the@ScienceMarchAu That's a very big problem.
The march has publicised heavily that it's non-partisan: it has 15 candidates running for pol seats. Five members in the March. That's a COI

This is not something minor. Making public conflicts of interest has impact on not for profits, science orgs, political parties.
-
With this information coming to light, it's not easily swept aside that a political party has vested interested having members in the march
-
Did you know about this conflict of interest? Because it wasn't communicated to me when I was helping your volunteers.

I pushed back strongly against the party's involvement. The orgs with party ties are acting as individuals. I wouldn't be involved otherwise
-
It's admirable that you pushed back. Non-partisan means, at the very least, not having political candidates in the national org committee.
-
FWIW, in my work with the other cities' orgs I have never felt that they were pushing a partisan agenda. Here in CBR we have zero party orgs
-
I understand you are saying there are differences between the satellites & national org. National org has exposed the march to a big problem
