Aussies: Bob Katter's Party (To End All Parties)

[Australis]

Federal MP Bob Katter has launched his new political party aimed at taking on issues affecting rural Australia.
At the party launch in Brisbane today, the outspoken north Queensland politician outlined some of the key issues that will be addressed by what is being called Katter's Australian Party.
They include more support for the dairy industry, increasing the use of ethanol fuel and reducing the market share of the two major supermarkets.

Did you see this on the news? I mean, the guy sounded completely mad. Completely mad. Look up a video clip of it.

This will be a game changer next election, but what it's going to do to the Parliament right now is anyone's guess.

And Pauline Hanson supports him, so you know it's all going to end weeeellll...

Your thoughts, good people!

It's Bob Katter after all. Plus there will be people who will vote for him. I think he is completely mad. I think the Queensland election will be important for his new party. If they fail to win any seats. They are doomed.

I'd rather listen to Katter than Joyce...talk about a complete dribbler. I'd love to see this party knock Joyce off just for the sweet joy of the Nationals cannibalising each other.

As for the QLD election, a dead fish could run and get in given how hated Labor is and how incompetent the LNP are when it comes to election campaigns.

Don't they have the National party for this sort of thing

^ It's not serving their needs any more. They can't get an elastic-sided boot subsidy.

Watching Katter on the news, he was like an attack dog. I could imagine him tearing at Wayne Swan's trouser leg.
