Nice list. There is one error though. The Liberal Democratic Party is not a left wing party. They're a right wing (free market, low regulation) pro civil-liberties party. They are as right wing, or even more so than the Liberals, but with similar social policies to the Greens. They can be considered to be classical liberals. This graph clarifies their stance relative to the other parties.
I forgot to post the graph. Here it is: http://ldp.org.au/quiz/graph.html
Thanks I'll fix than now
One Nation is not a racist political party and for your record we are anti internet censorship.
It seems that anyone can get onto the internet today and push their opinion without obtaining any facts.
"Our migrant intake will be non-discriminatory on condition that the numbers do not significantly alter the ethnic and cultural make up of the country."

That, One Nation, is racist. It really is.
