The worst thing to happen to Australia in the last ten years is the same sex marriage vote. Why? The under 25's came out to vote in record numbers and then thinking their job was done, stayed home for the federal election, giving us a Liberal government. If young people voted in the same numbers as they did for the same sex marriage vote, we would never have another Liberal government again. So do you want over 60's giving you another misogynistic, inept, corrupt, anti-climate change Murdoch appointed bunch of offensive incompetent goons running the country? You are the ones suffering worst with this economy and not being able to afford to live. You can stop this - if you are under 25, get out and vote and encourage everyone you know to kick this calamity to Jupiter.
With America's most dangerous extremist organization - the Republican Party - managing to likely destroy or change the Supreme Court in their efforts to overturn their bell-weather issue of abortion - an overview of the whole damn thing.
Nuance king and U2 lead singer Bono says Ukraine are fighting for all of us - no they aren't! Neither mine nor Bono's house are being blown up, why are no Western voices across the media, politics or the public screaming SUE FOR PEACE. I am, when the only possible victory would result in your entire country being reduced to rubble, when you are fighting mainly for two things you don't even have, membership of both NATO and the EU, so would lose nothing, when the West hasn't even offered you these things in the last nine years as the only benefit to being their friend, when the occupation of your country isn't even on the cards. Why is it so controversial to say sue for peace?
After weeks of being spammed by adverts from Clive Palmer's United Australia Party, screaming don't trust the Liberals or Labor, claiming they are putting them BOTH last - they have announced they are preferencing the Liberal party. WHAT A SURPRISE! Who saw that coming? The lying liar from lyington shire yet again proves his only job is to hoover up votes for the Liberal party and defeat Labor. A vote for UAP - again - is a vote for the Liberal's. Also how the medias gotcha - and impact - is happily failing this election.
The West seems intent on supporting Ukraine in one way only, encouraging them to fight as long and hard as possible - despite only a devastating Pyrrhic victory possible, that sees Ukraine reduced to rubble. We are not good friends. Why are we not encouraging them to sue for peace? If a Russian victory that leaves sovereignty intact is inevitable - realistically - or a "victory" that destroys the country is the only other option - making a deal is the only sane option. Unfortunately the West would rather this conflict continues, just to damage Russia as much as possible, no matter the impact on Ukraine. And are the Ukrainian government - lionized relentlessly by the West - even acting on their peoples best interests, or the Wests? Why is even saying this treason?
That's it, I'm calling it for Labor and in a near landslide too I think. There's a perfect storm for the Liberals, those early attacks on Albo were neutered by both Anthony Albanese getting COVID and Scomo being a far more reliable calamity balloon. Plus every one knows exactly who Morrison is this time, not the invented Scott Cam Daggy Dad he took as a clean skin to the last election. Our house of cards economy is collapsing at exactly the right time, the Solomon Islands debacle.... The list goes on and half his reliable cheerleaders in the media have abandoned him. Turn him over, he's done - unlike his chicken.
Partygate continues to dominate - but who cares? It's one of the least awful, corrupt or incompetent things the Tories have done in the past decade.
Make no bones about it, ever since blundering Scott Morrison called for weapons inspectors to be sent into China, to find the origins of COVID, to please Team Trump, China have been waiting for this election and payback. The Solomon Islands security deal was pitch perfect and 100% aimed at this election - what else have they got up their sleeves and could they act as a balance to our one eyed news media?
Why COVID was the best thing to happen to Albo's campaign and keeping Scomo front and centre is essential for a Labor victory. The smokescreen of the Katherine Deves dog whistle and other stories. And once again - if you haven't made up your mind after the last three years, please sit this one out for the good of the country.
No political lie is repeated more often than the right of politics are good at the economy and the left are good at spending - for forty years the exact opposite has been true. The Reserve Bank of Australia should be above this, but it seems their only job is to ensure the ponzi scheme that is the Australian housing market stays artificially afloat whilst the Liberals are in power. They've now locked in four interest rate rises just in time for a Labor government, and the establishment across business, the media and politics will suddenly remember a deficit they forgot about for the last nine years - ensuring every Labor social policy is "too expensive".
