fits in with the data and conclusions done some years back on the political parties:
there are marked differences between the two main political groups and between them and the minor parties. In general the candidates were less proud of Australia's history than the voters but this was not true of the Coalition candidates, nearly half of whom were 'very proud'.
Labor candidates, however, had black bands well fastened to their left sleeves,
while Democrats wore them on both arms and the Greens were in full mourning.
