Vote AIP in the Senate Elections
•
by Australian Independents Party
Greetings Fellow Australians,
We, the Members of the AIP, remind you that the election of your Senators will be occurring again soon.
The AIP has Candidates for this Senatorial Election. The Candidates for the March/April Senate elections are:
NSW:
TheConquerer
archmage
NT:
Quajan
Vincent Grey
VIC:
Xavier Griffith
rustyknife
We would like to remind voters that the Australian Independents Party represents Independent Members whose political views and beliefs are not generally represented by any of the other Political Parties.
With this in mind the AIP generally accepts the following Policies:
General
1. The AIP is a center party predominantly, however is open to minority groups and allows these minority groups to work together with the other party members to bring about their goals, provided they don't contradict other basic policies of the party.
2. Membership in the AIP is open to those that do not see themselves fitting specifically into one of the current major political parties of the ADSP, ANP or ACP.
3. The AIP sees its self as the party that keeps the others honest and stops governmental policies swinging too far to either side of the political scale.
4. AIP Members are free to cross the floor in the Senate in relation to votes without the AIP as a Party being offended. The Party does not force its members to hold permanently and strictly to its policies.
Civil and Governmental
1. The AIP supports the privatization of companies, and the right of Corporations to operate their businesses with minimal government interference and regulation.
2. The AIP supports governmental policies that aid individuals and where warranted, industries through social programs.
3. The AIP supports political discussion and debate, but reserves the right of members to vote on issues in the Senate on what they believe is in the best interests for ALL, not just the eCitizens and not just the Corporations, and certainly not just in the political interests of the Government.
Defence
1. The AIP supports a strong, well organised Defence Force, as well as an elite force.
2. The AIP supports strong and friendly relations with our Indonesian neighbours while not allowing them to abuse our friendship.
3. The AIP supports peaceful resolution of political difference with all nations over immediate Military Action.
The AIP's Motto is: Keep The Bastards Honest. That being generally what the AIP and its Members do in the Senate.
So, if you want to ensure that the Government is kept honest, then vote AIP.

BLOCKER 😁))
Best of luck AIP. Itll be a good election for all me thinks 😛
Please don't deceive the electorate
you are either centrist or Independent
you are blatantly lying about being independent, as you have policies
if you were independent then the party wouldn't group it's members together!
Who cares, just vote for us 😛
Very nice. Good Luck!!
taytaz: with all due respect, I think you're missing the point:
1) The game doesn't allow individual players to run as independents - it FORCES you to join a party first, so if you want to run as an independent, there needs to be a party willing to allow you to run under its banner, but follow your own policies. The AIP is that party.
2) The only reason the AIP describes itself as 'centrist' is that - as a party of individual independents, it would be misleading to describe it as either 'right-wing' or 'left-wing' since it is neither.
3) If you actually READ the policies, you would understand that they do not compromise members' independence. In fact, they actually ENCOURAGE independence from the kind of formal party rules & party discipline characteristic of larger parties.
If you doubt any of this, just look again at policy numbers 2 & 4 under the 'General' section & number 3 under the 'Civil and Governmental' section.
We have all seen the potential influence independent Senators can have in real life - I encourage all eAustralians to vote for an independent who represents their own values in preference to an ineffective member of a larger party who will simply 'tow the party line' whether they believe in it or not. Any Senator who votes against their own values for this reason is the one who is deceiving voters – not the independent who remains true to his own word.
You are the one that misses the point. The very fact that a so called independent party encourages 'Vote AIP' completely degrades the fact that the members are independent from the party. Anyway, no other parties force members to tow party lines.
The AIP is not independent, of could be, but at the moment it is misleading. The Independent Senators need no manfiesto attributed to all of them, obvioausly that is dependence on the greater party body, no
As for 1) You are wrong, the AIP exists, which is good, but the fact that the AIP Party is active means that the Independents are not free from a party
2) Why not say: Members come from all viewpoints. It is just as misleading to say you are centrist, or AIP brings moderation, because unless you ensure every member does, it is incorrect, and that compeltey defeats the purpose of an independent candidate. If they at all centrist, then why not just makeba centrist party
3) Irrelevant
Awww , Taytaz . Now who's doing the negitive campaigning .

nobody...
i make this point every time the AIP releases an article
