    Sadly no.

    We have two main parties Lib and Lab. Both rightwing neoliberal parties , one is slightly more right to the other. Imagine a little bit more left Dems vs a little bit more right Dems.

    Our preferential system means all votes have to end in 2 parties. Thus any slightly left parties vote is funnelled to Labor and any slightly right parties goes to Liberal.

    We get the illusion of more than 2 parties.
