We’ve done it, we got rid of another soulless right wing politician!

Peter Dutton first made his party lose this election and now also lost his own seat much like Pierre Pullover

We’ve still got a government that green-lit new coal power plants in it’s last term, screwed over the Aboriginal community with a poorly run referendum, and still doesn’t give a shit about climate change, but baby steps hey.

    Nonsense. Every party thinks they had “a way better plan”. Voters selected the plan they thought was the best.

      Well, Labour are wrong about thinking voters liked their plan. Voters liked their familiarity. Voters didn’t read Labour’s plan.

        Sorry mate, you seem to be blaming voters for the Greens loss.

        Every party faces the same paradigm, they need to promulgate their policies, and convince voters they are capable of implementing them.

        All parties have policies phrased in such a way as to be appealing, but there’s often a great disparity between the policy and the practice.
