Talk:Australian Country Party (2004)

message: I am writing re the recent reversals to amendments to the Wiki page for the Party.
I note that all edits were cited and the change of Leadership was official with Party formal internal procedures. There is no ability to Cite the internal changes of Leadership of the party.
The party has completely changed its direction and political positioning to a grassroots democracy ideology and we should have also deleted the 2 nationalism ones as well.
We are no longer a rural-focused party and this change occurred in July 2017.
Our Position is definitely Broad-Centre, and again this was cited to our recent media release that clearly demonstrated this.https://www.pr.com/press-release/774350
The opening paragraph, that has the first sentence utilised in the google search box had the two sentences just reversed so the current details of the party sho not the 15 year old history that also provides the impression of the old rural focus of the party.
I respectfully request that all the recent edits are reinstated, plus the deletion of the Australian Nationalism and Economic Nationalism as these are no longer reflected in the new direction of the party again cited to the media release that announced all the new details and direction of the party.
The way the Wiki page now reads, as it has been returned to the old content is related to the old Party under the old leadership and direction, Ideology and political positioning.
I look forward to your review of the recent media release and our website to see we have definitely changed who we are and where we are heading.
Media Releasehttps://www.pr.com/press-release/774350 Websitehttps://australiancountryparty.org.au
we have also removed all our policies as we develop new ones and will be updating our core values and position statements in conjunction with feedback from people around the country in our new FaceBook Policy Discussion Group.https://www.facebook.com/groups/auscountryparty/
I look forward to a quick return to the current and correct information for the Party as edited earlier this week.

replies: text: Thanks for starting a discussion on the ACP's ideology. Having a look over the party's position statements, there is clear justification for Australian nationalism, economic nationalism and social conservatism to be listed as ideologies within the infobox. I recognise the fact that the ACP no longer sees itself as an agrarian party, solely concentrating on rural and regional Australia. 
These ideologies are reflected through the following party policies:
* Australian nationalism – "Upholding institutional and political independence against the forces of Internationalism; We shall be reviewing all agreements to which Australia is a signatory, and if necessary, renegotiate them for Australia’s benefit", "Immediate reduction of immigration to 20,000 per year for the purpose of getting our people back to work. Controlled, selective immigration can restart when the official unemployment rate is at 2% or below", "Our defence forces are anaemic, due to not only the political correctness quest of some military officers but also the neglect of R&D and funding by successive governments. With China leasing a base in Vanuatu and other ports throughout Southeast Asia, we must remain vigilant"
* Economic nationalism – "As part of revamping Australian industry, creating new jobs and revitalising our economy, an Australian Infrastructure Fund would allow the management and optimisation of our natural resources for the benefit of industry."
* Social conservatism  – "The Australian Country Party will oppose any legislation to continue or initiate any new programs which teach gender ideology or portray sexual intimacy in schools. Sexual education should only extend to the biological functions and the process of reproduction from conception to birth as part of the science curriculum and be age appropriate and respectful of the social and cultural values of families in the school community."
Given these ideologies, it would be fair to retain "right-wing" as the political position of the party.

thread_title:  Recent Edits to Australian_Country_Party_(2004) 

message: This assertion is not backed up by any analysis I can find. The distributions from these two regions are available at http://www.vec.vic.gov.au/state2006resultNorthernVictoriaRegion.html and http://www.vec.vic.gov.au/state2006resultWesternVictoriaRegion.html do not support the assertion that the failure of the Greens to win the 5th quota was due to the existence, or preferencing of the CA. This should be referenced or removed.--Spamburgler 10:32, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The only thing that stopped the Greens Marcus Ward winning in Western Vic region was Labor directing preferences to the DLP ahead of the Greens.  When the ALP was eliminated for the count (they came third) their prefences elected the DLP (who  also had very small primary vote) over the Greens.  Country Alliance preferences were irrelevant, their vote was low and they went out of the count very early.  The claim is either wishful thinking or an attempt to rewrite history. If it does not have a genuine reference then it must be removed.  Peter Campbell 12:56, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  stopped the Australian Greens from gaining the balance of power? 

message: I have attempt to clean and bring this page up to standard by inserting links for the 2010 and 2006 state election results. I have also removed some of the Greens rivally talk in the results in the 2010 because it seemed to be out of context in the results section. It possibly belongs in a seperate subsection, but there were no cites for the much of it. If people feel it belongs in there include a link please. --Bsfairman (talk) 08:13, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
