That won't work here in Australia as the two major parties are, for all intents and purposes, identical. They both voted for all these recent draconian bills. We _could_ vote for the third party, who stands against all these things. But generally we are too smug and stupid to do something like that.
If you knew Australians (remember, we have compulsory voting) you would know that there is no hope in the ballot box. The sheer size of the bogan [1] voting block will make sure that any election will go to whichever party cracks down hardest on dole bludgers/boat people/sex workers/terrorists/dual citizens/Internet pirates/etc.
At the end of the day, as they say, we get the government we deserve.
