MELBOURNE (AFP) – The Australian Sex Party on Tuesday promised to spice up campaigning for next month's elections with a manifesto "unlike Australia had ever seen before".

Party chief Fiona Patten launched a risque national campaign at a Melbourne bar, saying her policies "would make (opposition Leader) Tony Abbott's hair stand on end and would turn (Prime Minister) Julia Gillard's hair grey". prospective

"We've always been forward and we actually enjoy real action," Patten said, mocking Gillard and Abbott's "Moving Australia Forward" and "Stand Up For Real Action" slogans.

The party's policies include legalising euthanasia, decriminalising all drugs for personal use, and watering down strict anti-pornography laws.

...

While the party will struggle for mainstream support, Patten remained confident of at least one Sex Party candidate being elected to the country's Senate.

"In the privacy of the polling booth, anything could happen," she said.

Australia is another Anglosphere country that, like its mother the formerly ‘Great’ Britain, is essentially over.

You're being ludicrous

In a Parliamentary system any party no matter how small can contest a seat as long as they pay a small deposit. The Sex Party is probably these two girls plus their hairdresser.

If the Sex Party actually take a seat in parliament, then feel free to resume your diatribe.

I like that idea, actually. Let every goofball stand on the initial ballot, and then hold a runoff.

"Doesn't sound that sexy to me."

It's sexy for euthanasers and, just as in the case of abortions, nobody is asking the euthanasees.
