The campaign avoids the aggressively negative tactics of the other parties and instead uses a positive approach to
argue its case to be included as a new voice in Canberra.
In launching the campaign, Family First spokesperson Bob Day said that he believes Australia can still be the lucky
country.
“We’re obviously experiencing some problems at the moment and Australian families are worried about their future and
thefuturedirectionof thecountry,”saidDay.
“But we’ve shown in South Australia how much difference we can make to the debate in a State Parliament and I believe
we can make the same sort of difference in Federal Parliament.
“There’s no doubt that people are wary of the two major parties and the Greens and are looking for an alternative party that
