Australian Sex Party: We’re fucked without civil liberties
The civil liberties-championing Australian Sex Party has launched its election ad with a message focusing on various people within the community who are fucked.
The ad – funded via crowd-sourcing platform Pozible – is fronted by party leader Fiona Patten who tells viewers: “There is too much fucking going on in Australia.”
The minute-long message is initially shot to look like a traditional party leader’s message, with Patten sitting at a desk, with an Australian flag behidn her. However, also pm the desk is what appear to be a mug in the shape of a woman’s body.
The ad features a gay couple who say they are fucked because they can’t get married, a man who is fucked because police arrested him for having marijuana, an elderly woman who is fucked because she is not allowed to go through voluntary euthanasia and a pregnant catholic schoolgirl who is fcuekd because she did not learn about contraception. In each case, the word fucked has been bleeped out.

If they changed their name they’d probably win a few seats.
But they won’t, so they’re fucked!

I hope @Tom is happy to know his vote has just preferenced One Nation and No Carbon Tax Climate Sceptics ahead of The Greens in NSW. Check your state’s/territory’s Senate Group Voting Tickets before you vote people!

The Sex Party is preferencing political candidates to the Right. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.

It’s amazing the smear campaign the Greens are running against the Sex Party.
The Sex Party has preferenced all civil liberties parties first, but in NSW only, much further down the preference list, they have strategically put the GREENS towards the end of their list, below some of the crazies like One Nation. There is NO CHANCE the Sex Party vote will get One Nation elected.
Wake up people and do your homework about preferences, all this nonsense you are reading on social media is just a myth and dirty politics by the GREENS, who refused to give any of their preferences to the Sex Party.

In NSW, The Greens have preferenced the Sex Party above No Carbon Tax Climate Sceptics above One Nation. One Nation have preferenced No Carbon Tax Climate Sceptics above the Sex Party above The Greens. The No Carbon Tax Climate Sceptics have preferenced One Nation above Sex Party Above The Greens.
Seems like the Sex Party have benefited from The Greens more than the other way around and One Nation and No Carbon Tax Climate Sceptics have benefitted more from the Sex Party than vice versa.
Do your homework indeed!

Ann O’Nymous as you are clearly from the Greens, you would also be aware that there are seats where Sex Party preferences will most likely get Greens candidates elected.
In NSW, Sex Party have given their preferences in order to:
– Voluntary Euthanasia Party
– Stop Coal Seam Gas
– Senator Online,
– Stable Population Party
– Building Australia Party
– Pirate Party
– Australian Democrats,
– Liberal Democrats
.
.
.
.
then ALL the way down to number 39 and 40 on the ticket is ONE NATION.
For all the crazies out there saying SEX PARTY preferences are going to ONE NATION is just nonsense, and simply retaliatory babble from sore GREENS. Let’s face it, if GREENS had any integrity behind their views they would give their first preferences to the Sex Party – and Sex Party would have responded in kind. Instead, GREENS chose LABOR who now have equally RACIST immigration policies as ONE NATION.
It’s seems quite fair that when the GREENS had the power to get Fiona Patten elected in Victoria by way of their preferences but chose to screw her by giving their preferences to Labor instead – is it any wonder the Greens aren’t appearing high on Sex Party preferences?

Do you know who has total control of preferences? YOU!
So get off your arse and don’t just put a single number above the line on the senate paper. And don’t just follow a party how to vote card. Vote in the order of preference YOU want.
Can’t be buggered filling out 96 odd numbers in the Senate? You only get to vote once every 3 years. Make an effort, or stop whingeing.

Certainly not a Greens member and not a Greens voter this election.
In Victoria, for this year’s electon, Australian Greens have preferenced Fiona Patten (Sex Party) higher than Labor on their group voting ticket. They did the same in the 2009 Higgins by-election on their how to vote cards and 2010 federal election group voting ticket.
As for Victorian state elections. The Greens preferenced Sex Party above Labor in 2010 Victorian Legislative Council in Northern Metropolitan Region in their group voting ticket. Only in the 2012 Victorian state Melbourne by-election did The Greens preference Labor above Sex Party on their how to vote card. This was an election which was tipped to be a contest between Labor and The Greens and the results show that The Greens votes didn’t even require distribution.
Not sure where you’re getting your information from. Perhaps the Sex Party just messed up like Wikileaks?

I am going to vote the sex party too –
The Greens are just a little too crazy about trees for me – (I like the environment and all, but its not the end of the world if someone chops down a tree)
I don’t reckon the Sex party will win a seat, so my preferences will likely flow down to the Greens anyway to be honest

I’ve held their basic polices beliefs for 60+ years now, ethical and true social concerned based. So it seemed a no-brainer…
But NO WAY would I chance my preferential vote to go to Rednecks!
Deja Vu constant tax cut handouts to the super rich + unrelenting WMD war criminal lies.
NEVER.
