Not sure if political parties have been done but i can try and help with this.
Antipodea Political system: Unitary, Semi-Presidential Republic (i.e. just like mainland France)
Chambre des représentants: 125 Seats
Sénat national: 75 Seats
The system is based very much off of the French system, one big difference however is the fact that there is mandatory voting (failure to vote results in a 500 Franc, or around US$300 fine).
You will note that the Chamber has no independent parties, despite their being 7 senators who are independent, that is because it is practically impossible to be voted in as an independent (as you need at least 50% of the vote to win the seat, if any candidate fails to get that, then a second round is required between the two top candidates).
Political Parties:
Parti Socialist-Radical (Radical-Socialist Party): Centre-Left to Left-Wing (Social Democracy, Democratic Socialism, Eco-Socialism, Left-Wing Populism, Progressivism, Direct Democracy, E-Democracy)
Chamber: 69/125
Senate: 34/75
The main party on the left, currently in government. They are a socially progressive party that is for the advancement of social issues (LGBT, Abortion rights etc) as well as pursuing a fully renewable energy policy, which they have been able to get past despite pressure from the Catholic Church and community. Very popular with young voters (under 40) as well as former Communist and Socialist voters. The party does well amongst irreligious voters as well as Asians, Mixed Race and other minorities. Has a very strong union presence. The Party has been around since 1902 (making it the second oldest party in the country after the Union).
Union de la République (Union of the Republic): Centre-Right (Social Conservatism, Economic Liberalism, Third Way)
Chamber: 42/125
Senate: 25/75
The main party of the right in Antipodia, is the social conservative party that has a lot of support amongst Catholics. The party however is an economically liberal party, encouraging free trade with neighbouring countries, on the continent and in the Asia-Pacific. The party has somewhat moderated socially in the last 2 decades, accepting civil unions, some level of abortions (early abortions and in the case of health hazards and sexual assault, they do not support late term abortions). They receive a great deal of backing from both Corporations across the country as well as the Catholic Church (though with issues within the catholic church, they have added a bit of separation, with some members even backing the same sex marriage being passed by the Radical-Socialists back in 2015).
Parti Ouvrier (Workers Party): Syncretic (Christian Democracy, Social Conservatism, Economic Socialism, Trade Unionism, Populism, Anti-Immigration)
Chamber: 8/125
Senate: 5/75
The main difference between the Radicals and Workers is socially. The party is still very socially conservative (now even more conservative than the Union generally), advocating for strict immigration policy. The party has rejected all forms of economic liberalism (advocating a democratic socialist model similar to the Radicals). They have been compared to the Blue Labour movement overseas. The party is popular amongst Catholics who work in a trade or in the mines (popular in rural areas). The party doesn't do very well in major cities such as Port Napoleon. The party is also the most anti-free trade, stating that we must protect the workers here first.
Les Verts (The Greens): Centre-Left (Social Democracy, Green Politics, Economic Liberalism)
Chamber: 3/125
Senate: 2/75
Often coalition partners with the Radical-Socialists, Les Verts are a Green party that pushes forth the need to change the energy supply to renewables in a sustainable manner (rather than Carbon Taxes like other countries, changing the system gradually whilst maintaining exports). They are a very economically liberal party, advocating for the free market and free trade. The party is almost entirely present only in Port Napoleon and other large cities, with virtually no presence in rural areas. Very popular in more affuential areas and amongst students and those in their 20's (being the 2nd most popular party in that age group behind the Radicals).
Partie Agraire (Agarian Party): Right-Wing (Conservatism, Agrarianism)
Chamber: 2/125
Senate: 1/75
Very simple party, stands for the farmers and Agrarian interests. They are a socially conservative party themselves, however they are more concerned with issues in regional areas. They do not stand in major metropolitan seats. They are most popular in the regions and away from the cities.
Alliance indigène (Indigenous Alliance): Centre to Centre-Left (Indigenous interests, Big Tent)
Chamber: 1/125
Senate: 1/125
The Party was formed from the split of members of the Greens and moderate indigenous members from the Union. The party is focused primarily on Indigenous affairs and making sure that their is an indigenous voice in parliament (despite the Radical-Soclialists having 1/5th of their current members who are indigenous, with half the parliamentary party who are not of French origin).

Huis van senatoren (House of Senators): 4/50
The Greens 87 (named after when the party began, 1987) is the closest thing to a Social Democratic Party there is in New Holland. The Party is often the one that will look to social change (as it is the only party that has an official policy of supporting Same-Sex Marriage, even though members in both Labour and the Christian Democrats support it). The party does the best amongst young voters (under 40) and in major metro areas (especially in Zwaanenstaad, where the Governor is from the Groens87).
