Labor put the Shooters Party second in a preference deal in NSW in order to trounce the Nats and it worked. SFF claimed a few scalps. LNP have used them themselves to get legislation through parliament so they are both as bad as each other.

ON doesn't want our gun laws weakened but the Shooters Party does, Where's the outrage lefties?
The Shooters, Fishers and Farmers party (SFF) has denied it’s ever been in official contact with the American National Rifle Association.
Emphasis on the word 'official'. :roll:

Here is what the ALP placed second on their card ...
A look into the firearm policies on the SFF website shows that they support a review of the 1996 National Firearms Agreement of COAG, the gun restrictions brought in after the Port Arthur massacre.

They also wish to remove the recording of ammunition sales, increase funding to ‘Shooting Australia’ and expand self-defense rights and non-lethal means of protection, among other policies.

I agree they are as bad as each other!

Not sure I agree ON doesnt want to weaken our gun laws , if that is true why did they take the bait!

Greens will be second last on mine and Fishers thirds last

In fact I seldom blindly follow party ticket on voting!

BOTH major parties will stoop to any level to bury those who oppose them. BOTH major parties had their hands in putting Pauline in jail.

I dislike them both and Australia will never never enact positive change while they BOTH work together to bury those who oppose them.

BOTH major parties will be last on my ballot paper. Well second and third last because the Greens will be last. I only wish I could put them all in the last spot.

The trouble is BO there is no point putting a fringe party/person first unless you want to give them the balance of power if numbers are close.

I really think you have to vote either Labor or Liberal first despite their failings for more stable government.

Was that TV show really an attempt to attack One Nation? From what little I have read, the Australian false group was set up to see what could be found out about the National Rifle people in America, or is that incorrect.

Jesus, the time and expense from a Middle Eastern media company to take down an Australian Political party is just extraordinary.

Things always have to get worse before they get better and at the rate we are going all that will remain stable are the politician's pockets.

Neither have Australia and Australians as their priority so if destabilising government is what brings about real change at the other end then that's what should happen.
