The Australian Election

[ninja87]

Please only Aussies vote.

[Machvayne]

Undecided, nobody really stands out.

[Smokin Horn]

I wanna vote Greens but I know it would be a wasted vote. Next it would be Labor.

[onestep]

Essentially:

Labour:
- Good: installing the new broadband system
- Bad: said they would do it 3 years ago, never did.
- Bad: are going to put internet filters

- Good/bad: can they be trusted on the economy after KR/usurping in their own 'team,' or were they looking after Australia?

Liberal:
- Good: ?
- Bad: TA may implement workchoices
- Bad: TA is a bit of a scrotum
- Bad: Planning on scrapping the national broadband plan

Greens:
- Good: OK to national broadband plan
- Bad: inexperience

Australian sex party:
- Good: no filtering
- Bad: inexperience
- Bad: *******ry everywhere











rly all the choices suck ass
and its a major disgrace to the australian political system
fuk em, rep me if u agree












and im out

[Machvayne]

I honestly just might vote Labour for the NBN. I know Libs have their own proposed version of NBN but it involves spending only a fraction of the amount that Labour have committed.

Gillard speaking from the heart yesterday?? Check the pics -

Labor continously lie and lie , you won't get your NBN

[LolGtfo]

I will not vote for that ranga bich. She's gonna run this country into the ground. She's a horrible dishonest wench.

As much as TA is a tit, he's against Censorship, and Liberal have a good track record of getting us into surplus, until the next labour govt comes in and blows it all.

He is against abortion etc but there would be no chance that he could successfully have that stopped.

[ninja87]

She's a horrible dishonest wench.

As is the Labor party at state level. Can not be trusted at all.

[ninja87]

bump

[7straightup]

This is a tough choice. Both as bad as each other.

But as someone on the tele said.. "im voting for the donkey, cause a donkey always wins".

Either way Aus public gonna loose.

[MDizzle11]

isnt one of the frontrunners a creationist?

why is he a front runner?

[ninja87]

why is he a front runner?

Cause the other one is a Commie , gutless , genetically f***ed rednut.

[ninja87]

Bump for any Aussies who missed it

[Rattus]

Liberal is the logical choice. But really, no matter who loses the election, the real loser is Australia.

[Erevan]

At present I will be voting Shooting and Fishing Party with preference to Sex Party. May change if someone comes out with something epic.

[Hereforthelulz]

Sex party.

[L_Coops]

[FunAndSun]

Wait wait wait wait wait....

8 reasons why not to vote greens.

1. the ****ing idiots have expressively stated one of their goals to be an Australia that has zero net growth, that's right they want us to be in an economy where we have a permanent depression because they see this as the best way of looking after the environment, no joke you think labor or liberals have had some economic sins the greens goal to put us in a permanent depression makes the others look like Mother Teresa:
http://www.smh.com.au/federal-electi...730-10zsb.html

2. greens are the party which spent 3-4 years pushing really hard to hit us with the mother of all taxes (carbon tax) which would double the cost of electricity hitting pensioners, low income earners and really all aussies all for the sake of some unfounded claims that humans are changing the climate. Their other idea is to put as at the mercy of bankers with a carbon trading scheme but ultimately they were instrumental in rejecting the tax brought to the table by Krudd earlier in the year they didn't even show they believe in their own bull**** by passing a carbon tax or ets.

3. the greens have pretty much made it impossible for mountain bikes, dirt bikes, four wheel drives, fishermen, recreational shooters, dogs on leash and in some case hikers to access bushland or waters in the surroundings of Sydney, Melbourne and regional areas and nearly impossible to access any beaches in Australia.

4. the party has spent a good part of the last decade pushing against detaining illegal immigrants in jails despite the fact that anyone who can afford to pay a smuggler to come to Australia is just an economic refugee rather than a genuine one. That's right it is one of their goals to have open borders where anyone can come and go from here as they wish and be paid to be a 'refugee' in Australia.

5. the party is constantly trying to destroy an export that brings in over one quarter of the nations exports by banning coal (one of their aims) you'd leave us as a nation entirely dependent on imported energy and much poorer due to this ban. Similar policies also attack the hundreds of thousands involved in heavy manufacturing and forestry here.

6. they are strongly in favor of subjugating us to the aboriginals and strangely bang on about their right to self determination but yet won't shut up about wanting to step in to push us down in an attempt to achieve equality which is a big contradiction.

7. they have their head so far up their own ass with their firearm policy and from the veiled walls of their inner city offices their policies on guns is extremely bad for the millions who live in rural and regional areas and even bad for the millions in cities who want to make their own decisions (much like all their policies).

8. their long standing views and campaigns against back burning are responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Australians in the 2009 bushfires.


Just off the top of my head, if you look at their policies and put aside the feel good emotions they appeal to and actually think how bad their ideology will affect our economy, security and safety, right to enjoy the outdoors then you will see they are nothing but a socialist party hiding under the vale of green, as some would say they are a watermelon party, 'green on the outside, red on the inside with a tinge of pink'.

[LP670SV]

Liberal is the logical choice. But really, no matter who loses the election, the real loser is Australians who actually work and pay taxes.

Fixed brah!

[get.set.go]

Sex party.

what a load of shiz regarding labor and supporting 18+ games. they have govt at federal and most states and its still not legal. if they wanted to allow R games it'd have been done already

Wow, very nice post.

9. greens pass off votes to labour
you're essentially voting for labour

[Zaneseed]

i heard a while ago that they were going to try to charge ranga with treason on account of the way she came into power. anybody know what happened with that? i'm a bit behind on it

[Grug]

No, you're not.

Guys, if (like me) you're not happy with what either major party is promoting - please don't throw away your vote on either of them. Vote for a third party and give the bloody politicians notice that they can't count on people's complacency to allow them to run the country - let them know that they have to earn our votes (by causing them to lose a lot of seats).

Personally, I want an "Australian Nuclear Party" (srs), a party that promotes the common sense of completely replacing fossil fuel-powered power plants with nuclear power plants until large-scale renewable energy generation can be implemented.

I think that moving away from fossil fuels (to nuclear power, electric cars/public transportation etc.) is going to be one of the most important transitions in human history since the industrial revolution, and the sooner it begins the better.

[Pepsi88]

its all a load of crap

[ninja87]

Don't vote the Greens. Green's and Labor are to soft , they can not manage the economy. They DO NOT deserve another chance. Vote 1 Liberal.

[p7nk]

no one cares about your ****ty third world country, keep this bull**** outside the misc.
