    Hi Shawn,,

    Peter Pyke is running for the Aus Party in my electorate.

    I have absolutely nothing to do with the Aus Party.

    However, I did take the time and effort to thoroughly research eachy party and their candidate running in my electorate to see which one supported my interests best. Considering my interests are hunting, fishing, camping, boating and 4WDing it was no brainer at all to work out that the Aus party was by far the best choice for me.

    I also researched thoroughly what each party offered the State and concluded:

    ALP: On past record, dont piss on any of them to put them out when burning.

    WaterMellons(Red on the inside, green on the outside): No fisho with half a brain would vote for them.

    LNP: Once the election is over will carry on where Labour left off and shaft fisho's. Might be different if the old National party was still around but the current LNP will roll over us Fisho's just like they did to shooters.



    Katters Aus Party: Well if we get enough members voted in to controll the balance of power it will, stop the introduction stupid unnecessar leglislation like from the ALP in the past, then perhaps the State of Queensland will have a big win for the first time in many years.

    The important thing is to research, research and research, dont just vote for a candidate because or party because you have done so for years, or you like their coloured flyier etc.
    did you base your selection just on your recreational activities? Lot more to running the State that rec issues...but we are all entitled to our vote or not on election day.

    Re: KAP ( Katter's Australia Party ) policy.

    There are a fair few out there who think that a vote for Katters party will split the conservative vote, well have a read here.

    With every New Year, new challenges appear - 2012 will be no exception. One challenge that will have to be faced is the upcoming State election and its effect on the proposed changes to the Weapons Act.. We will attempt to keep you, our members, fully informed of the gyrations of the political scene.
    As a step in that direction, we have some comments about an opinion that circulates every time a new political party or an independent appears on the scene. The opinion is that if two conservative candidates stand in an electorate the conservative vote will be split, resulting in a win for the current Government. On the surface, it sounds quite logical. However, the truth is that if those conservatives swapped preferences the conservative vote would be maximised. The only way that multiple conservatives will split the conservative vote is if either one of those Conservatives refuses to swap preferences and advocates a policy of 'Vote One' only. By voting one, the voter runs the risk of having no say whatsoever in the following rounds of counting. By allocating preferences, voters use the full power of their vote to influence the outcome of the election.
    To maximise our chances of bringing in a government that will take on shooters' issues in a positive and reasonable way, we would suggest that members allocate all of their preferences and thus gain maximum value for the vote they cast.
    For those interested the Katter Australia Part is holding their Inaugural KAP convention in Brisbane in February. Further information at https://www.ausparty.org.au/my-ausparty/events
    So think very carefully what you do with your preferences when you vote.

    afer reading the 21 core values of The Australian Party, I could never dream of voting for them. Way too socialist for my likings.

    So, please fill us in Pinhead, who will you be voting for, next state election?

    Seems like the current NSW Liberal Govt is going real well, or are you voting Labour or worse for the WaterMellons?

    I have made it quite clear on here previously..the quality of candidates standing in my electorate is appalling. I am not voting for any of them.

    4. Governments should develop and promote policies which maintain and advance a modern mixed economic system that will ensure economic growth, full employment, equitable distribution of income, rising living standards, prosperity, opportunity and equality of access to such opportunity for all Australians, to ensure:

    This one had my eyes widen very quickly. Considering the KAP have blossomed from conservative roots, i found this quite alarming. Now one may say that one comment could mean anything but we know how politicians like to spin. Going on how modern Labor has become a spin machine, if the KAP won power at a federal level and only spun half as much, they could spin that one point into a mandate for turning Australia communist lol.

    On a more serious note. Some family members were around on Sunday and it seemed that the majority of the gathering were intending on voting KAP. It urged me to send a letter to my area KAP representative (Glass House) to get a clear answer to the KAP ethanol policy. Of course I haven't received a reply yet.

    Dear Peter,

    In considering my vote for the upcoming QLD state election, I have been looking for an alternate vote in lieu of the main parties. In looking at the KAP website I noticed this policy: " AusParty's Roadmap for the Future includes maintaining the government’s support for Australia’s domestic ethanol industry and mandating the use of ethanol (as was successfully done in Brazil)."

    Can you please confirm for me if the "mandate" as stated on the KAP website means that the KAP plans to make the use of Ethanol mandatory for all fuel in QLD? Will standard unleaded petrol still be freely available without extra taxes or pressure from a KAP led government?

    Kindest Regards

    Re: KAP ( Katter's Australia Party ) policy.

    I forgot to add. I could never vote for the KAP just based on points 20 and 21 of their core policies alone.

    I find it highly hypocritical of the party to play the libertarian hand on one point. Point 15 = Government interference in people's lives must finish at the family fence or property boundary. Legislation overriding all other laws must provide that intrusion and interference upon that household can only occur where human health and life is in serious and immediate jeopardy.

    But three points later: Point 18 =Because it is in the economic and social interests of the community, laws in their enactment and application must support and uphold marriage. Marriage is the union of a man and a woman, ideally for life It is in the best interests of children that they are nurtured by their father and their mother and laws concerning children should be based on the best interests of children.


    So when it suits them the role of government ends at the property boundary but if two women want to get married the government needs to tell them that they can't? This is what I can't stand about hypocrites in politics. You can't have your cake and eat it too if you want to have any intellectual integrity.

    We all want a third major player in politics, but we can't get one with any consistent integrity to stay out of our lives on all fronts.

    Re: KAP ( Katter's Australia Party ) policy.

    Arn't both the LNP and Labor also mandating a level of ethanol that is imposible for fuel companies to reach without adding ethanol to standard / oct91 fuels? Would that also rule them out for you as well Lovey? I'm sure that's what I've read and I believe the Coalition Gov in NSW could be implementing that right now.
    Cheers
