On April 3, 1903, a piece of news from the Australian government completely detonated the entire Australian political scene.

Political parties have been largely unmentioned in Australia since their inception, and their legitimacy has never been established.

As a result, most of Australia's elections are attended by individuals, and the power of political parties has largely disappeared.

But with the release of an announcement by the Australian government about elections and political parties, the term political party has once again entered everyone's attention.

According to the new regulations of the Australian government, political parties will be officially included in the scope of legal elections in Australia from now on, that is, Australia officially recognizes the legitimacy of political parties.

But there is also the point that political parties must be approved by the House of Lords before they can be established, and they must be subject to the supervision of the House of Lords.

Once a political party is found to have engaged in favoritism or violated the law in the election, the House of Lords has the right to punish the political party, and even report it to Arthur, directly declaring the political party illegal and forcing a political party to dissolve.

The reason for agreeing that political parties are legal is that in the context of the fact that political parties in Europe are already very common and well recognized, Australia with a large number of European immigrants is naturally not exempt, and political parties are also one of the needs of many Australians.

However, on the premise of giving citizens the right to legally participate in political parties and government activities, Arthur also retained the last card, that is, political parties are supervised by the House of Lords, and must be reviewed by the House of Lords before they can be formally established and become a legal political party in Australia.

The election of the House of Lords is basically in Arthur's hands, and except for the current cabinet members, the other members of the House of Lords are nominated and appointed by Arthur.

Moreover, the cabinet members will eventually need to be reviewed by Arthur and the House of Lords before they can be appointed successfully.

By taking control of the House of Lords, Arthur actually controls the lifeblood of the political party and is not worried about the subversive impact of the political party in Australia.

The legitimacy of political parties has changed the current situation in Australian politics a lot, and it has also made one party ecstatic: the Australian Labor Party, which has been established for more than a decade.

The Australian Labor Party dates back to colonial Australia, a coalition of workers who began as a coalition to promote unity in Australia and have evolved into trade unions to protect workers' interests.

The Australian Labor Party is a party that has been established since colonial times, but because of the successful establishment of the Principality of Australia, the Australian Labor Party disappeared for a period of time and disappeared from the Australian political scene.

People don't even dare to claim to be from the Australian Labor Party, and until Arthur legalizes the party, any party will be hostile to Arthur's fanatical Australians.

Now, because of the influx of immigrants into Australia, political parties have to be legalized and given the right to participate in elections.

This has led to the hope of the previously formed Australian Labor Party to enter the Australian political arena, after all, in terms of elections, the advantages of political parties are far greater than those of individuals.

Arthur was not surprised by this, nor was he opposed to Australians joining various political parties.

However, it is also very necessary to impose restrictions on political parties, in addition to the fact that political parties must be subject to the review and supervision of the House of Lords, and no corruption and bribery such as political donations and favoritism are allowed in any election.

In order to put an end to the collusion between political parties and capitalists that has been common in European countries, Australia has even introduced an election law and a political party law for this purpose, and no political party is allowed to accept political donations without permission, otherwise it is equivalent to fraud in the election.

In fact, this law also protects the interests of small political parties and the poor. When the world police in later generations were elected, those who were able to hold large-scale canvassing speeches on a national scale were often politicians with the support of many capitalists behind them.

Politicians who don't have the backing of capitalists don't even have the funds to prop up a speech, who can't use it to canvass for themselves, and who knows these poor politicians with ambitions?

Such an election directly confronts the rich and the poor with two situations, and the rich have an innate advantage, so they can naturally talk about it.

Even a speech by the poor would cost them a lot of money, and there were not many who could really make it to the end of the election.

In a so-called liberal and democratic country, most of the people who can participate in elections are capitalists with small surplus money, or puppets pushed up by capitalists.

Whether it was the House of Commons or cabinet officials, Arthur would never allow the capitalists to interfere at will.

It is true that the royal family has ceded some power to the people, but the people are all ordinary people in Australia, not the capitalists.

There is only one way for political parties in Australia to obtain funding for their activities, and that is to call on their supporters to donate to the Electoral Union, which is established and overseen by the House of Commons and distributes 70 per cent of these funds according to the proportion of seats held by the parties in the House of Commons.

The remaining 30 per cent will be divided equally among all legal political parties registered in Australia, so that political parties large and small can taste the sweetness and not have a little development funding.

The amount of money that political parties can get depends on the proportion of seats they occupy in the lower house, and it depends on the real talent of the party members to win and run for it.

Because the members of the Electoral Federation are composed of the royal family, the cabinet government, the upper house, and the lower house, and are ultimately accountable to the royal family and supervised by the upper and lower houses, this is also the most reassuring method at present.

After all, it is overseen by Australia's three most powerful ministries and the royal family, which has prevented corruption and injustice to the greatest extent.

In order to show the Crown's support for political parties and fair elections, the Royal Family has made a special announcement that it will donate £10,000 a year to the Electoral Federation to support all political parties and those who participate in them.

This move also allowed the royal family to obtain the fanatical support of the only political party in Australia, the Australian Labor Party, and also promoted the development of Australian political parties in disguise.

According to the statistics of the House of Lords, in just over two months since the proclamation of the proclamation on the legality of political parties in April and the promulgation of the Electoral Law and the Political Parties Law, the House of Lords has examined applications for the establishment of nearly 20 political parties.

Although more than half of these political parties did not apply for approval, the reason is that the platform and goals they established are not beneficial to the livelihood and development of Australia's people, and even just the whimsy of some times makes some people have the urge to form a political party.

The first is to ask for support!
