Despite the name, the Australian Liberal Party is anything but liberal.
Hoo boy.
What exactly do you mean that they're not liberal?
On the standard conservative - liberal scale, they trend conservative despite their name.
Makes me wonder how they started with Liberal in their name. Perhaps they were liberal from when they formed a hundred years ago and just never updated any of their positions or stances?
they are economically liberal, socially conservative - so they support business and letting it do whatever the fuck it wants
Or it's like North Korea calling themselves the Democratic People's Republic
