The Way I See: Australian Politics

Australia has a lot of politics

Just nobody cares about them

Wonder why

So here is a collection of the official AU parties

The few that don’t sound like high school clubs were removed


  • Australian Fishing and Lifestyle Party
  • Australia First Party
  • Australian Men's Party
  • Australian Protectionist Party
  • Australian Sex party
  • Australian Shooters' Party
  • Australians Against Further Immigration
  • Christian Democratic Party
  • Climate Change Coalition
  • Communist Party of Australia
  • Conservatives for Climate and Environment
  • Country Liberal Party
  • Democratic Socialist Party
  • Family First
  • Liberal Democratic Party
  • Liberal National Party
  • Liberty and Democracy Party
  • Non-Custodial Parents Party
  • Nuclear Disarmament Party
  • One Nation
  • Outdoor Recreation Party
  • Pauline's United Australia Party
  • Pirate Party of Australia
  • Progressive Labour Party
  • Restore the Workers Rights Party
  • Secular Party of Australia
  • Senator On-Line
  • Senator Online
  • Socialist Alliance
  • Socialist Equality Party
  • Socialist Party of Australia
  • Stable Population party of Australia
  • The Climate Sceptics
  • The Greens
  • Western Australia First
  • What Women Want


At least they’re real specific in what they want

Like

What on Earth could the Restore the Worker’s Rights guys want?

Oh,

Likely to restore the worker’s rights


What Women Want

is probobly exactly that

and they don’t vote for the Australian Men’s Party

NO girls allowed


The Greens are all about trees

And Climate Sceptics are all about not trees


Australia First Party

Family First

Western Australia First

They should all just make one party

We All Tied for First Party


Australian Shooter’s Party sounds fun

The one above it just gets a lot of votes for no reason

(and they probobly oppose the Stable Population people)

The Australian Men’s Party shoulda thought of that first

Fishing and Lifestyle is taken too

Only thing left to win the male vote is mmmm, ah

The Australian Beer and Footy Party


Who’s Pauline?

It’s like, her own club

Here’s the description:

Pauline's United Australia Party is an Australian nationalist political organisation formed in order to ensure that Pauline Hansen's name appeared above the line (as per the voting method in Australian federal elections) rather than simply below the line amongst a list of independent candidates

Soooo,

That’s it?

Just put her above the line

and then.....what?

Boy a whole party just for that

She sure is popular

(Who got to take her to the prom?

You have to start party for that too?)

But not enough to get above that dasdardly line I guess


You know, this is all kinda fun!

It’s like being in high school!

I want to join the Pirate Party!

Plunder all the other parties,

Wear an eye patch

All that jazz


But uh,

....Who’s doing anything around here?


I guess that’s why Australians don’t care for politics

  2. Every man and his dog here has some form of a political party.

    Us Aussies are carefree & laid back. All we live or care for is fun, sun, sand, beach. Enough said :)
