The Liberal Party are the fiscal conservative, family orientated, business helping, and hard on illegal immigration.

The Labour Party is similar to the UK's. It is more union and welfare orientated, although its fiscal policy if anything favoured businesses because they had such close ties to the unions they could stop wage rises with little more then a wimper from the trade unions.
