About Your Opinion Matters
Your Opinion Matters is a community space for sharing ideas and petitions. The goal is simple: make it easier for everyday Australians to be heard and to highlight the issues and solutions that matter most.
Why this site exists
Good ideas often get lost because they are scattered across social media or never reach the right people. This site brings community feedback together in one place so it is easier to view, discuss and support.
How it works
- Submit an opinion or petition using the forms on this website.
- Submissions are reviewed before being published.
- Posts may be summarised so visitors can quickly understand the main point.
- People can support, suggest changes or disagree respectfully.
- If an idea gains strong support, it may be escalated or shared with relevant decision-makers.
What we publish
- A short summary of the idea or petition
- The main topic (and sometimes the general area or postcode)
- Respectful comments and constructive suggestions
What we don’t publish
- Email addresses, phone numbers or private contact details
- Personal attacks or identifying details about private individuals
- Anything that could put someone’s safety at risk
Community guidelines
- Be respectful — disagree without abuse
- Keep it constructive and suggest improvements where possible
- Do not post defamatory claims or name private individuals
- No hate speech, threats or harassment
- Do not share private information (yours or anyone else’s)
Privacy
