Australia has a brand new federal political party - move over Family First!
click to make it grow
Yes, your eyes didn't deceive you - it's the Australian S~x Party
Although born in November 2008 with Eros as midwife, it was only registered federally in glorious technicolour on 5th August 2009.
Giving it a comfortable amount of time to gear-up for the next federal election.
I don't know who will have apoplexy first; Family First's Senator Steve Fielding who if he gets re-elected in 2010-11 may find himself sharing his Senate play lunch with an ASP senator defending legal erotica, Federal Communications Minister Stephen Conroy who is determined to eradicate anything far-right Christianity disapproves of, or Teh DBCDE which must be privately wondering how a political party with such a name will fare if a national Internet filtering scheme comes to pass.
