THE Australian Sex Party has announced they’re setting their sights on the next ACT election with a core team of five.
“A five-person founding committee headed by Director Jorian Gardner and Australian Sex Party Federal President Fiona Patten has been formed to take the party towards 2016 elections in the ACT. Steven Bailey who takes on the role of ACT Election Team Leader and Party First Officer, Deborah Avery who is ASP Canberra Branch Secretary and Robbie Swan who is policy and communications manager make up the committee,” the party wrote in a statement.
“I believe that Canberra has changed over the last decade – even just the last few years”, said Director Jorian Gardner. “Our city is a vibrant, smart, forward-thinking community and I don’t think our political parties have moved with the times to reflect changing community views.”
The party has presented a wishlist of policies they think are a good idea:
- Taxation and regulation of the supply of Marijuana and other personal drug law reform
- Gender & Marriage Equality
- Affordable public transport for the ACT including light rail
- Greater budget accountability including lower ACT Budget deficits
- Restrictions of government and commercial data retention
- Legal euthanasia
- Increased support to Canberra small businesses including red-tape reduction
- Non-traditional farming practice for the ACT
- A secular education system with a National Sex Education Curriculum
- Increased support for the Arts
- National Censorship Laws
- National Pregnancy Termination Laws
- Ending tax exemptions for religion
The party has a facebook group which they invite you to like.
