I'll actually crack a bottle of Dom if Bandt goes down in Melbourne...

....I wonder how that would go with a double dose of SSRIs? :laugh:
What I find funny from the voting map is, where all the Green voters are, is where the renewable rollout is having a lot of community trouble.

The Green areas of NSW and Victoria, there is a lot of pushback against transmission lines and wind turbines, go figure. :rolleyes:

I think you mean where the National Party is winning.
And looks like they won Bendigo! the Nats haven't done too badly. That picture is wrong unless the NAts have announced they are becoming independants, cutting the Libs loose.

Yes I mistook the dark green as being the Green party,spot on Knobby, as you say it is the Nationals. My apologies.
 
Bandt is in trouble still. 48% to 52%

Bandt is in trouble still.
If Brandt is toast , then I'll know there must be a god .
That leaves just one green ferkel still standing , ( up in QLD ) . She 's harmless . Witless like the rest , but there's no malice in her .
That's the only joy for me at the moment , as I've just now finished reading Joe Aston's far from uplifting take on the election in the WeekEnd AFR . It might also be up on his new " Rampart " website , as well . This country is in for a frightful future with politicians of this low calibre . I'll just block it all out for the next 6 years . Yep , it'll be that long , folks .
 
TBH the Nats are nearly as bad as the Greens they are also part of the problem for the Liberals to modernize.

Jacinta Prices interview on the ABC points to the problem.
The Nats know that their voters are rusted on, so they don't even bother with policies they just take the electorate for granted.

They need a kick up the backside.

Jeez I just had a look at that clip, the blond haired lady is full on aggressive isn't she, I mean there was no let's smoothly move into this discussion.
More like a pit bull terrier on someone leg, she is never going to get the interviewee onside, with that sort of rabid attack. :eek:

Personally I don't think Trump had much effect on the result, the only thing Trump did, was highlight how poorly Dutton prepared and delivered his campaign when he resorted to copy and pasting Trumpisms into his hopeless platform'

Pizz poor planning, pizz poor presentation and pizz poor outcome as it deserved IMO
.
As I said well before the election Dutton is unelectable, go back to the first couple of pages of this thread. ;)

Was that the interview when she was flanked by her "minders" ?

Who does she this she is , a mafia don? :roflmao:
Yes there were some blokes hanging in the background, one looked like Pat Dodson's brother, similar beard.

I just copy and pasted 'Jacinta Prices interview on the ABC' from the IFocus post and this clip came up.

My wife said one was her son. I wouldn't know.

When Dutton become leader, I said I'd never vote for the Libs with him at the head or with Barnabey within the ranks...

Trump was a major issue Price was shut down talking about Trump during the election not the only factor but think its in there the swing to Labor was more than just about Dutton

Brilliant, we elected a Party in *Australia* based on an *American* President because Orange Man Bad?

Brilliant, just brilliant. Meanwhile in *Australia*..…....

If so, Australians are more profoundly stupid than I imagined.
