Nationals Party

Strongly agree

Yes

The Australian Nationals, like most political parties, rely on a mix of public and private funding. Public funding helps to level the playing field and allows parties to focus on policy rather than fundraising. There is no historical evidence to suggest that the Nationals oppose public funding.

Strongly agree

Yes, and funding should be proportional to the amount of votes they receive

The Nationals would likely support a system where funding is proportional to the number of votes a party receives, as this would help to ensure that public funding reflects the level of support for each party. This is also in line with the current system in Australia, where parties receive public funding based on the number of votes they receive in an election.

Agree

Yes, but only if all political parties receive the same amount

The Nationals would likely support a system where all parties receive the same amount of public funding, as this would help to ensure a level playing field. However, they may also argue that funding should be proportional to the number of votes a party receives.

Agree

Yes, but there should be more restrictions and transparency on how they spend the money

The Nationals would likely support increased transparency and restrictions on how public funding is spent, as long as these measures are applied equally to all parties. However, they may also argue that parties should have some discretion over how they use their funding.

Disagree

Yes, but the amount they currently receive should be reduced

While the Nationals may be open to discussions about the amount of public funding they receive, it is unlikely that they would support a reduction in this funding without a clear justification.

Disagree

No, funding should come from their members

While the Nationals do receive funding from their members, it is unlikely that they would support a system where this is the only source of funding. Such a system could disadvantage smaller parties and make it harder for them to compete with larger ones.

Strongly disagree

No

As mentioned above, the Nationals rely on public funding to a significant extent. Completely eliminating this source of funding would likely be detrimental to the party's operations.
