Party ideologies
Australia's main political parties don't really have ideologies that can be summed up in a single word. Find me a reliable mainstream source that refers to the ALP as "socialist" and ... I will be very surprised, to say the least. Meanwhile, the Liberals are a "broad church", as they're very fond of reminding people; there are people in there who would identify as "liberals" for sure, but also plenty of old-school conservatives, economic liberals, classical liberals, and even a few social liberals. The current Liberal "our beliefs" section does not mention the word "liberal" outside the party name. It has been decided, following long discussion at places like Talk:Liberal Party of Australia that attempting to describe the ideology of Australia's political parties in a single word is not helpful, and that discussion of party ideologies is better included in prose (as, you'll notice, the parties article does).

 * No worries. Australian politics is confusing to everyone. :) Frickeg (talk) 07:12, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
