The Low Divide is an independent policy research initiative focused on systemic corruption in Australian government. It publishes evidence-backed reform proposals across nine policy areas: gas export taxation, political donation law, ministerial accountability, federal anti-corruption bodies, electoral reform, lobbying transparency, gig economy regulation, Australia Post, and port pricing.
Every policy on this site is supported by public data, parliamentary records, court decisions, and independent economic analysis. The goal is not commentary — it is to show, specifically and in detail, what reform would look like and how it would work.
This site is researched, written and produced by Jimmy, based in Perth, Western Australia. The research uses AI tools extensively — for literature review, data analysis, argument stress-testing, and audio production. The editorial judgements, policy positions, and factual claims are the author's own. Every claim is verifiable from the linked sources.
Sovereign Return is the publishing identity behind this project. It is not affiliated with any political party, think tank, or government body.

For factual corrections specifically: corrections@thelowdivide.com — all errors are reviewed and retracted promptly if verified.
