Large numbers expected at historic Australian Party convention

An historic event will take place in Brisbane this weekend when Katter’s Australian Party holds its first national convention. The event will gather members and supporters from across the nation to hear presentations and share views on the change of direction Australian so desperately needs, and which the Australian Party will deliver to the Australian people.

Attendees will be treated to addresses from the State and Federal leaders, Aidan McLindon and Bob Katter, as well as other key stake holders outlining their vision for a better Queensland. A number policies and positions will be discussed including a moratorium on Coal Seam Gas mining, restoring the state’s manufacturing industries, securing of our State assets and the removal of unnecessary restrictions on the people of Queensland.

Positive and common sense policies such as these have seen the party grown from strength to strength since its birth in June last year, and it now boasts more than 2000 members. 70 new members a week undoubtedly makes Katter’s Australian Party the fastest growing party in Australia. More than 60 candidates have also signed on and have been well received across Queensland. With early polls already suggesting more than one quarter of Queenslanders are likely to vote for Katter’s Australian Party, the next state election is certainly shaping up as a three horse race.
