Chic Henry signs up for One Nation of Wheels

Good on Chic for having a go.

Build us a motorsport complex without whinging neighbors

So Chic Henry is the Val Jeffery of this election? Small party outside – but really just Liberal inside?

Preference skimming?

A bit like The Greens and Labor, eh Al?

Something I can never understand about so called Motorists’ lobbies – why do they not understand that everything that increases take-up of public transport and cycling isn’t taking away from “road users” but is actually reducing congestion for those who can’t (or won’t) use those options?

What relationship exists between the Motorists Party and One Nation?

Wasn’t one of their founders a former one nation candidate or something like that?

With porn and prostitution the big earners during Summernats, surely a dream coalition of Fiona Patten and Chic Henry is on the cards?

If there was a dragway down Northborne we would not need light rail. Ideas people, ideas!

Rapid transit system that wouldn’t cost the taxpayer a penny. Now you’re thinking. Run the strip southbound in the mornings, northbound in the afternoon with a “park ‘n ride” system at EPIC.

Good news I think time will tell though who is he up against? and who is the current sitting member?

Our three Hume road warriors are sure votes!

Best news I’ve heard for a long time. Hopefully all the Greens members in the current Assembly will be voted out and be replaced by members from the Motorist Party. Then we will have a Liberal government in coalition with the Motorists and kiss goodbye to left wing extremism, climate change grants, dodgy solar panels schemes and public art. It will be a win-win for everybody.

Whoa … quick, someone make sure grandpa gets his meds.

The Motorist Party should do a preference deal with the Sex Party.

Chic would be a perfect intermediary with plenty of experience through his work at Summernats.

Is Chic Henry related to our own HenryBG?

didn’t old Chic have to go bankrupt for Summernats? now he wants us to vote him in office, oh why not its Canberra he’d make the perfect treasurer

So long as he allocates money for the construction of a motorsport venue he’ll make a perfect treasurer!

I am a motorcyclist and he doesn’t represent me.

He has no endorsment friom the MRA ACT or any other motorcycle group that I am aware of.

Surely this claim is “fraudulent”?

Seriously Chic, you can’t be serious

Anyone know where I can get odds on the ACT election?

You are the archetype for Crotchety, Out-of-Touch, Old People everywhere, aren’t you? What planet do you live on and what year do you think it is? :O

I can’t believe there are people still bashing climate change as some lefty conspiracy. It’s gone far beyond the level of reasonable (or even unreasonable) scepticism, into flat-out intellectually dishonest denialist territory.
“Oh scientists, what do they know!? In my day we used to burn an acre of bushland after school everyday and no-one said anything about warming! Plus, it got really cold last night, which totally proves that climate change is a socialist conspiracy!”

I also not they’ve listed “Pedestrian and cyclist issues” as one of those catagories, love to see what will happen there! 😉

I think we can guess where it will go:

The Australian Motorist Party represents all road users, including heavy vehicles, motorcycles, taxis, public transport etc. The Party policy may also represent pedestrians, cyclists and the general public where motoring policy shares a common interest with these sectors. As a broad policy objective, the Australian Motorist Party will work to ensure that a more just and representative proportion of budgetary income derived from the motoring sector is allocated to the safety and welfare of the motoring citizens.

It’ll be interesting to see what happens if motorists don’t have a common interest with the general public.

Show us ya tits!

Won’t he play to the ‘aspirational voters’? That is the ones who have an S ute but aspire to a Maloo. I would have thought they were Liberal voters

That is the funniest post I’ve read in a while! Kudos!

I hope he doesn’t stand on his business accomplishment record.

In their policies section there are just catagories listed, nothing about how they will be addressed. I hope they provide detail soon, because some of the catagories are important.

If Henry picks up the apathetic/disinterested blue/fluro collar voters that tend to vote Labor and streams that to the Liberals, this could be interesting.
