A New Conservative Force?
January 4th, 2017 by VivThose contemplating a platform for a new conservative force may find some value in contemplating a policy statement and constitution that was rigorously consistent and designed so that it could not easily be watered down.

The Progress Party was formed in Queensland in January 1977, and then spread Australia wide, contesting elections for several years. It no longer exists so the contact information in “The Yellow Book” is no longer relevant. Viv Forbes is happy to answer queries.

The Progress Party and its predecessor, the Workers Party were wonderful introductions to the real world. Great speakers with unbeatable logic.
But the electorate remains largely ill-informed and vote for ill-informed
Members of Parliament. But thank you Viv and Judy for your unflagging efforts to change things for the better.
