I wouldn't rate that site a serious resource on the subject.
They look like a species of Citizen's Electoral Council or Lyndon Larouche style nutters, with the usual right wing paranoia and conspiracy theories. if they're not a branch or splinter group or even a rebranding of the CEC, they deserve to be treated the same (i.e. ignored and or laughed at) The headings on their highlighted articles are a giveaway "Tax is Voluntary?", "Licenses are Illegal?", "Fines are Unlawful?". As is their Jan 2010 announcement of Monkton's tour "Lord Christopher Monckton is touring Australia to debunk the pseudo science behind Climate Change." couldn't find anything about Prince Philip and his genocidal conspiracy with the WWF to take over the world, and nothing about flouride and bodily esssences either. but that could be because i didn't spend more 5 minutes looking at the site. And what's with the lion and unicorn in the Coat of Arms at the top of the page? Australia's CoA has a kangaroo and an emu. the lion & unicorn is the Royal Coat of Arms of the United Kingdom. I guess it's an indicator that they're pro-royal monarchists....but they can't even get that right - Queen Elizabeth II's relevance to Australia is as Queen of Australia, not as Queen of the UK.. FWIW, i'm anti-republic but only because i don't want a president, not because i'm in favour of the royals. a Queen 20000km away and a mostly-ceremonial head of state is better than a local Pres. Especially after the Constitutional Crisis of 1975, a GG knows that their place is to do nothing of any real note. A president is likely to think they can and should be doing things. craig -- craig sanders <cas@taz.net.au> BOFH excuse #61: not approved by the FCC
