Ok, before you get 40 pages deep, yeah I remember the last effort on the old Forum... lol
What is the difference in layman's terms for us foreign folk. I haven't really got the gist of who is who in the Aussie sandpit. Might help better understand what you lot are going on about... (maybe)
.
Our Labor Party (ALP) is the same as your Labour Pary with Jacinta, the ALP leader is currently Anthony Albense (Albo)
Our Liberal Party (LP) is the current Government and is led by Scott Morrison, our current Prime Minister (aka ScoMo or Scotty from Marketing)
The National Party (NP) has had several names, they are in a coalition relationship with the LP, so they are in Government at the moment as well, they are 'supposed' to represent the interests of regional and remote Australians,who cares who they are led by, although he is Deputy Prime Minister
The Greens are the same as your Greens and no-one cares about them - they are irrelevant LOL
