Party Games 2025 - Australian Citizen's Party - 3/TBD

The Australian Citizen's Party has removed a lot of the conspiracy and craziness from the website over the years while keeping the economic populism, but there are signs it is still there lurking beneath the surface. There's still a bit of stuff about a loss of sovereignty to London/international banks, and the candidate profiles reinforce their outsider self perception.

Their main solution for all our ills is the institution of a national bank to fund infrastructure projects, which thinking about it why do we need a bank rather than just having the government fund infrastructure development directly through taxes? They also want to set up the post office to act as a bank, with the idea that the post office will better service regional areas without noticing that the post office already has limited services in regional Australia.

They'll end up after the majors but before the deplorables.
