Zusammenfassung
On August 4, Australian Labor Party (ALP) Prime Minister Kevin Rudd announced a federal election date of September 7. The conservative Coalition looks, as the days go by, increasingly certain of a comfortable victory. But, owing to the conduct of the Coaltion and the ALP in cynically exploiting some of the world’s most desperate people for short-term electoral benefit, there is likely to be no small amount of soul-searching and not a few heads hanged in shame when the dust settles. In this sense, the real interest in this election is on the Left, where it remains to be seen whether the Greens can further erode the support of the major parties, and whether the Wikileaks Party can capitalise on its founder’s international following. On the Right, meanwhile, Rise Up Australia, the Palmer United Party, and Katter’s Australian Party are all jostling for what could be the highest vote for minor parties in years.
