These guys were the first political party to start talking about marriage equality. They actually have some great ideas.

A true socially progressive liberal party is really needed in Australian politics.

Also, I believe to be a registered political party you have to have 500 members registered with the AEC.

Bring back the Australian Democrats and Keep The Bastards Honest.

The Democrats are certainly in a pretty good position, and I thought anyone would be willing to see a socially progressive AND economically responsible party find every success in upcoming elections.

The AEC has proven they’re not dead. Reality shows they’re not dead. All that’s left is the election test, and the day when 0 people vote Democrat. Until that day, the debate should be on policy – not political spin to try and keep them down to keep letting the bastards win the war.

That must be the entire membership of the Australian Democrats.

It’s dead; give it a burial and move on.
