How many more people are going to start parties in their own name?

Pauine Hanson

Bob Katter

Clive Palmer

Now Dick's Party. I'm guessing if it's listed as such on the ballot paper it will get lots of votes.

Donna- I dont often post on political threads.

I like the idea of some fresh blood in the political arena.

Dick Smith comes across as a fair dinkum bloke.

Have listened to him on Australia all over on the ABC radio on Sundays.

Not to be compared with others in previous posts.

Just my thinking----will be howled down for posting-but thats how it goes...............Richo.

I think most people would agree with you, he is a very pleasant man and easy to listen to. Neither leader of the two major parties is easy to listen to, most of the others are funny to listen to.

Dick gets kudo's because he donates a lot of his money to charities. There would be a lot worse people than him, that could start a political party.
