Pat it just does not seem to be broad based enough. It's a big well done for the enthusiam but do you really think with such a narrow based that you can get people elected as an alternative? There is no promotion going on of your party it seems to be so small..................................................................................................................................................................

Thanks for you comment Realist. You're correct, it's not as broad based yet as we would like it to be and we have a way to go. However, it is a start in the right direction. As you can see, this is a federation, a collective of interested parties, and we have opened the doors to individuals, groups and organisations with a social justice and ecology agenda to either come on board with us or to write to us with their proposals for our manifesto. These are the people who are the experts in their field and that's who we want to listen to - the people at the coal face. There's no point in bureaucrats in large institutions deciding these policies for other people.
