Family First approaches sex party for preference deal

Ha, this is so funny. Australia has a Sex Party, and the conservative Family First Party* approached it to do a preference deal in the federal election. The election will be run on a preferential voting system.

But despite the approach, the deal never happened. Or in the words of Family First:

We were talking with them (the Australian Sex Party) about the election ... and we came to an arrangement not to do an arrangement with them

That's a bit like a vegetarian going to a butchers shop and coming to an arrangement with the butcher not to buy meat.

*Nothing to do with these guys
