It’s time for Australia to vote for change : Comments

By Viv Forbes, published 6/5/2022

Starting with Gough Whitlam, Malcolm Fraser, Don Chipp and Bob Brown, there has developed a monotonous uniformity in main-stream Australian politics.

Indy,

What you want is compliant citizens controlled by a totalitarian government. Several past examples spring to mind.

Having talked to the LDP President and checked their policies, I decided to vote LDP. Then along came Campbell Newman and an alliance with Clive Palmer. No thanks, you've completely lost me there.

Be careful of the Liberal Democratic Party, they are not as they appear. Their name is a misnomer, they are neither liberal or democratic, more Fascists than anything. From the outset they used the name to fool moderate conservatives into supporting them.

I may not like Hanson, but at least she's never made a secret of her extremist views.

her extremist views
Paul1405,
What are the views that are so 'extremist' ? I find it far more extreme to bleat about unacceptable housing at $800,000-1.000,000 a pop, free schooling & literally everything else free as 'appalling conditions'.

Dear individual,

You write: "Going by your posts I don't think we can expect you to ever be co-operative with them ! To get good authority we must first have decent citizens !"

Indeed, but while you have a long way to go we aren't giving up on you. You will one day renounce your unAustralian views and look to your fellow countrymen rather than defend the billionaire class and the ratbag right as you so often do.

Paul.
Are you sure you're not conflating our LDP with the Russian party of the same name?

Australia's LDP are about as far from fascist as you can get. They're American style libertarians (the kind that believe all taxation is theft and all duty is slavery) though fortunately they've proven themselves willing to compromise in parliament. I wouldn't want them in charge of anything, but their having a small presence in parliament is generally a good thing.
