The young activists behind the school climate strike have endorsed independent candidate Zali Steggall.

, the former head of the Clean Energy Finance Corporation and independent candidate taking on Treasurer Josh Frydenberg in the Victorian seat of Kooyong.

As part of her vetting, Ms Steggall was interviewed by two local teenagers, Manly Selective student Vivienne Paduch, 14, and Queenwood student Alexia Giannesini, 16. “To achieve the targets you need to have the policies that really grapple with it,” Ms Steggall said. “They can’t just be numbers that are achieved, but not really achieved, it’s got to be real.”

The school strike, inspired by Swedish teenager Greta Thunberg’s long-running protest, saw thousands of Australian students leave school on a Friday to protest lack of action on climate change.

Teacher accused of sex with teen feared for safety in jailA sixth-grade teacher who is accused of having sex with a 13-year-old student feared retaliation from inmates within prison. Allegedly had what? Had sex? She raped the student!!! If the teacher was male that’s what the headline would be!!! Why is it any different for females?
