OT: Current Affairs and Politics

[84 Baby]

Seven calling Labor with 76 already with 43 seats left to call. Libs will probably pat themselves on back for ensuring it isn’t a minority government

 

[Joshuatheeel]

BTW, gee Barnaby and Peta, are awfully quiet...pretty unproductive tonight...

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Jacinta Price is massively in denial. All the media‘s fault apparently.

What the hell were those dudes standing around her, and the weird notting by one, the bearded one....gee that will win back the centre...

 

[JokerEel]

2 things will happen.

1 Libs will get their shit together and not coming up with stupid policies that no one wants or can afford.

2 Albo will take this win as Australia actually think he has a clue and doesn't make any changes to help the country. (Dental on Medicare would help)

It might, but we don’t have enough dentists in the country to manage that

 

[Gronk]

This pelican has lost his seat too.

 

[MarkInTheStands]

Also of note, it looks like Max Chandler-Mather will lose Griffith.

A lesson for minority progressive parties. f**k around with the real progressive party and find out.

Maybe not in Penrith!

But that's not really the reason...

Mental health also would be nice

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Thats part of the policy they need to work out how to fix, if there is a will, there is a why...

I remember when I was younger, there was some free dental scheme, which "nurses", did a lot of the stuff.

Anyhow I reckon free dental is a policy that could win an election...

Yet, the media did everything they could to get the Libs elected.
It's funny.

 

[Avenger]

Congratulations, lefties!

Seat of Cook is still blue. I’m staying here.

The only way the liberals could lose Cook is if they came out and said that the nuclear power plant will be based in the Shire and will be funded by capital gains taxes on everyone’s property from the Shire

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Credit to Dutton, I may not like his politics, but it's tough to put so much time into something you believe in and lose....this is what makes our country great (like other democratic countries)..peacefully conceding...with a gracious speech! Accepting the result with dignity!

credit to Dutton!! It takes both parties, left and right, to ensure we stay on course in a balanced way...

[Obscene Assassin]

Damn no Labor/Greens alliance like we were promised by some on here, no socialist utopia, maybe next time? We'll just have to settle for a sensible government that gets on with the job of building the nation

Greens seemed to be going backwards as well?

When do we get this sensible government? Haven't seen any in my lifetime.

[Gary Gutful]

This muppet has been absolutely embarrassing himself on the ABC.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Enter:

Peter Dutton.

Couldn't campaign his way out of a wet paper bag.
