Don't know anything about this Adam Bandit character, other than what I've just learnt via BR's link - ex Vic Labor, thus card carrying communist, so fits the "Watermelon" theme perfectly.

My experience of ex ALP career pollies is they are ruthless ... they talk about "ethics" but have no scruples ... sound bites are everything.

I was one of the main players in getting rid of former Qld Police officer and former Goss Labor Qld pollie Peter Pyke from Qld Greens in the mid 2000s, by stating on the QG website I intended to forward an expulsion motion, which initiative was gazumped by other members and Pyke's head rolled.
He'd served one term in the Goss govt before being tossed, and so was not eligible for a parliamentary pension, which he intended to gain by taking over Qld Greens and being elected as a fed senator. The position Larissa Waters now holds.

Don't know anything about McKim either, other than he's Tazwegian.
S-H-Y is dumb as dog shit, but then she is from SA, and they're a strange lot down there.

Larissa is pretty smart and I won't be surprised if eventually she becomes party boss ... she knows how to play the media.

These days the party is mainly attracting commies from the defunk DSP (joined Socialist Alliance in 2003 or 4) and vegan fundamentalists from PETA and the like.
The veg Nazis think they're on a roll with the corporates trying to grab the vego dollar via vege burgers and fake meat burgers, but Hungry Jack's/Burger King is just finding out their ploy is in vein as the vege Nazis refuse to eat the fake meat burgers because they're cooked on the same plate as real meat.
Nothing anybody does will ever satisfy this mob, and they'll always continue blaming other's for their catastrophes.
If Donald Trump is so close to the Ruskis, why couldn't he get Vladimir Putin to put novichok in Xi Jjinping's lipstick?
