The demise of the Liberal National Coalition should be celebrated, as we may see a phoenix rise from their ashes. They have lost nearly every state and territory election, with Tasmania being the only existing Liberal state government. They lost the previous federal election and don’t seem to be making any gains despite the high levels of inflation and an insane Italian ruling over us. They have been losing votes faster than I lose friends, which is impressive in its own right. This is of course their fault for selling out their voter base to corporate and foreign interests. The population of Australia however is not becoming any less right wing and a political void will need to be filled.
The most probable way that a right wing movement will emerge is from some sort of apocalyptic destruction of the current empire. Rural people will then finally teach the city slickers that there is more to life than pointlessly moving money around. However consider my dreams of mass chaos don’t come to full fruition: than I have some suggestions on how a true right wing movement can become successful within the current parameters of our fake democracy.
The major issue with the alternative right wing in Australia is that it is divided into many parties and independents. By combining the voter bases of these various parties, they could make a serious challenge to the established fraudulent right wing coalition. As the old establishment collapses, their voter base will be forced to side with the newly formed party and hence grow even further.
One Nation garners roughly 10% of the vote in Queensland and 5% nationally. Katter’s Australian Party in Queensland also gets around 3%. Last election, United Australia Party achieved roughly 4% in the Senate and House of Representatives. Plus a million and one other micro parties like the Libertarian Party, Shooters, Fishers and Farmers Party, Australian Christians, Australian Federation Party etc. There are a small handful of elected independents that also loosely fit the right wing category. Some members from the failing Liberal and National Coalition will probably even be part of this mix, like rats fleeing a ship for safety. These percentages sound low, but it’s partly because they focus on single electorates or states.
This isn’t a new idea either, the origins of the current Liberal Party formed in a similar manner. Led by Robert Menzies in the 1940s, there was a huge drive to form a political party that could finally defeat Labor. They held two national conventions where various political movements, parties and leaders were invited. The end result was the forming of a new party and a nationwide structure to support them. Eighty years later and we’re now facing the same issue: Labor is forming a stronghold on government and the Liberal National Coalition is too incompetent to challenge them.
These minor parties all agree on roughly 90% of policy for varied reasons. However the egos amongst them are so strong that they cannot come to a current agreement. The other reason they haven’t come to an agreement is probably because it’s not currently beneficial to do so. It’s easier to control party members when there are fewer of them, and this is important when every action is being closely watched and scrutinized by the establishment. Also by being decentralized, any major criticism or controversy cannot destroy the entire movement. Like the many heads of a hydra, cut one off and two more grow back in its place.
The growing opportunity to take power should however entice them to unify and shift the Overton window. Another group of minor parties on the further right might then take their place and we’ll see the same merger in another eighty years. I just hope this happens somewhat soon so I can be witness to Pauline Hanson ascending to the throne and taking her rightful place as mein Führer.
This is all based on the premise that the Liberal National Coalition will not get their act together, which seems very likely because they’ve been bleeding more than a stuck pig going through its menstrual cycle.
