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.

It's difficult to jump on the policy train when you know that the good policies are just to get votes and will never materialise, and that anything controversial that needs more than 3 years to complete will likely be killed by the next government.

You do have to look at the track record of the party to see if they will try to enact policy - this is why I'd never vote Winston First. And hopefully they will last more than 3 years
