OT: Current Affairs and Politics

[hineyrulz]

He won't win. He will choke like Parra in week 2 of the finals.

If be loses maybe we can get him on the Parra coaching staff??

 

[Gronk]

Lol mate I’d rather see Albo in the lodge instead that slimy turd Scumo but that’s his second own goal. It looks bad that a bloke wanting to run the country can’t even answer a question about one of his own policies. Even worse when he had a whole week of doing nothing and he still can’t have his shit sorted.

I fully understand the optics of what's happening. My point was ~ does it really matter when he's balls deep in the job in 12 months time ?

Of course not, but it’s the perception to people out there that this merkin has no idea. I think you can forgive maybe one of those fumbles but now two?? As I said I hope he gets up because I can’t stand another 3 years of looking at that smug fraud fake Scomo.

My faith on the polls is as about as much as the Eels every week. So I'm not dumb enough to make a prediction.

Shorten last election performed like the Eels in 2001 GF.

No, he's a rabbits supporter.

I was sitting on fence. Leaning towards Albo.
But two blunders have me worried about his memory.(could be on drugs) Unsure if he is up to the task.

You really need to up your troll game.

Ok he isn't on drugs. But he is coming across as a peanut

 

[Gary Gutful]

The only peanuts are the idiots fascinated with the leader rather than the party they represent.

 

[hineyrulz]

No, he's a rabbits supporter.

Or he’s just a f**king Rabbit.

 

[hineyrulz]

The only peanuts are the idiots fascinated with the leader rather than the party they represent.

Which are the majority of the voting public sadly.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Understand that leaders should be across shit but I’m getting sick of the ‘gotcha’ attempts by the media. I suppose it’s easier than delivering informed analysis…

 

[Gary Gutful]

Looks like Albo isn’t a fan either. Don’t watch Q and A for this very reason

Based on previous posts I don't think you were really sitting on the fence though, were you?

Be honest - your vote was always going to the Libs - or Clive or Pauline

 

[the phantom menace]

Of course not, but it’s the perception to people out there that this merkin has no idea. I think you can forgive maybe one of those fumbles but now two??

It's quite sad that there's some "low-information" or "low-engagement" people out there, who make their decision of what local rep/party to vote for based on the difference between one and two stumbles in response to media "gotcha" style questions.

No wonder we have turds like Murdoch and crew setting the agenda for the country through his own press headlines - rather than a street smart population and forward-thinking policies making us a grown up intelligent country on the world stage.

 

[the phantom menace]

It’s Albo’s second major f**k up.

But they're not really f**k-ups on the scale of say... secrettly running to Hawaii when the country is in flames, not holding a hose, a vaccine stroll out with thousands of lives perhaps unnecessarily lost to covid, years worth of aged care f**k-ups with no improvements on the horizon, failure to deliver his promise for a federal anti-corruption body to investigate the sleaze, or letting China create an military alliance with a nearby pacific neighbour, etc etc - are they?

I agree, but as I said to Gronky it’s the perception of him being out of his depth, scomo should be out on his ear after his litany of f**k ups. But Albo is the one auditioning for the Aussie people to become prime minster. He’s not helping his cause with his own goals.

I agree again mate, but what do you expect when the top rating show is MAF’s. The majority of people in this country are f**king stupid, they need to be spoon fed everything and the government do everything for them. There is no accountability from anyone anymore it’s always someone else’s fault.

2 f**k ups, yeh, he did, and Newscorpse are all over it for weeks

ScoMo f**ks up regularly and in a much bigger way yet Newscorpse wont even talk about it

What I really don't understand is why Labour has this dwarf with a speech impediment and glasses like milk bottles is the best leader they can come up with. He may be better than he presents but surely his second in charge would stand a much better chance of winning the election than this oopma loompa.

He presents and speaks so much better than Albo, and many people, my wife included, will vote on that basis.

Episode 57 of Sizzletown has the follow up to Dictator Dan song, Dictator Dom. Just as good
