We of the Liberal Rights Party are not surprised by the results in the Wallup Poll. Us, along with the LSP Party have spent a lot of time informing the public about our party and political beliefs. The public has realized that the left wing parties are the best parties to lead the country. As the Liberal Rights Party, we will stick to our word and fight for the common man throughout our term and years to come.
