The Australian far right, also known as the shooters and fishers party...

Yea I don't know if I can take someone serious who thinks a party focused on recreational hunting and gun rights is some fringe far right party.

Also the claim of "alignment" comes from preference runoffs, because wikileaks put them ahead of the greens. Seems like a lot of bias packed just in this one sentence.

Are you Australian? The shard in your username makes me think you might be.* Regardless, down here the handful of people who would be considered as proponents of gun rights would also most likely align with the far right (One Nation, Shooters and Fishers, etc).

* Don't know about elsewhere, but in Australia "shards" is a slang term for ice/crystal meth.
