I have tried to start a new political party but hey have a go.

Mine was the australian peoples party, www.tapp.org.au

dont worry about the heading i just used that for myself when i ran as an independent .

The biggest problem is that political parties do not represent the people of their electorates and that they are only there to represent their parties.

I will not go away, the other parties and unions have forgotton what government is about, us the people.

That is why i created tapp so it is about choice not dictatorship.

I suppose if you look at it that way we should have one party representing all men and one party representing all women and one party representing the in between.

Foxy, I have to agree with HenryVIII that migrants have as much right, and ability, to partake in politics as the rest of us.

I find the notion of a separate political party for migrants quite off-putting. It would no doubt have one very significant negative effect; exacerbating a divide between migrants and non-migrants.

We certainly don’t want that to happen. In fact we very strongly want the opposite to happen, so that we can all feel like full citizens of this country.

Those in favour of sectarian strife say aye. Naive.

AYE,

A political party run to the tune of immigrants and Aboriginals would serve as a great vehicle for political unrest.

Every time Keysar Trad or his idiotic boss graces the TV most people feel the need to throw up. And as the biggest migrant group in this country these are the people that this topic will attract.

So go on Sheik Hilali for PM baby.

Runner,
Sorry to disappoint you but not all Jews and Arabs consider themselves enemies - nor all Protestants and Catholics, blacks and whites, blue-eyes and brown-eyes or any other group that some like to believe are obliged to be automatic enemies.

Not all Labour voters are opposed to businesses and not all business owners are anti-Union.

Unfortunately the idea of this sort of party only provides yet another forum for those keen on dividing us into even more groups to fuel their prejudices.
