Admittedly I don't know Acts policies well but their leader I find a bit of a turnoff. He looks like a grinning goblin to me.

I have always felt he comes across as ingenuine, I also think he knows it and at long as he is pandering to the electorate they will keep voting.

But he knows that he is unpopular, just look at the outcome of the last election, he didn't even know the names of those he was talking into parliament. That is how little he thought of Act's chance of getting that much of the vote.

An ingenuine right-wing populist libertarian candidate? well I never!
