Vic election: Are the political parties really different?

In brief... YES!

Just looking at the Christian Values Checklist tells us that the parties have very different views on moral, life and family issues.
Our analysis of how MPs voted highlighted the differences - when we analysed the percentage of MPs in each party voting FOR immoral legislation the difference was even more stark...

Here's some more important information...

FamilyVoice has released the results of their survey for the Victorian election...
FamilyVoice asked the candidates and the political parties TEN questions.

FamilyVoice has then taken the responses given by the parties and given them a score out of 10 - for a total out of 100.

* The DLP, Family First and CDP ALL scored 100.

* The Liberal//National Coalition scored 73 out of 100.

* Labor scored 34 out of 100.

* The Greens scored 25 - the only 'positive' they had was for their concern about gaming machines.

* The Sex Party scored 20 - they totally disagreed with Family Voice on every question!

Some individual candidates have received a higher score than that given to the party by responding favourably to the survey according to their own beliefs - for instance Neil Angus, a Christian running for the Liberal Party in Forest Hill, scored 94.
