The Jewish vote in Wentworth, disgraceful behaviour of the Libs - absolutely disgraceful, they deserve to get their ass handed to them tomorrow and i expect that will be the outcome, preferences will get the independent home.

Quite correct, Phelps wins Wentworth.

Labor didn't do too well either.
 
Well they lost Wentworth and it was great to hear the Liberal spokesperson on the ABC coverage talk about needing to change the climate change policies.

I want my Liberal Party back. They need to tell Rupert, Bolt and all the USA style Republicans style politicians to f off. They just threw away a great leader.
The first step should be to get rid of Tony Abbott and demand Newscorp hand back the money that was given to them. I am still angry. t

Well said. I'd give that 2 likes if I could.

One for hitting the nail and one for saving me from doing it :D
 
Let's see what the Libs new CC policy will look like.

Or could it be believed ? I remember John Howard made a (very) late change in policy just before he got the royal boot.

The coalition's CC policy if it really exists will be a put up job to convince the masses that they really care and is likely to vapourise after the election which ever way it goes.
 
Tony should go now, he has to take a bulk of the blame for rolling Malcolm, Dutton and a couple of others too - they have no chance at the next election as a lame duck government for the next 7 months or whatever, Shame as i think ScoMo had potential but he cant stand up to the wreckers on the right.

The Libs are self destructing, the right are to stupid and hard line, the centrists too weak.

One absolute certainty is that Abbott will not go.

Katharine Murphy sums up the by election nicely

"It is a repudiation. A repudiation of a chaotic period in government characterised by self-obsession and self-harm. A repudiation of the party’s lurch to the right, and the hollowing out of the sensible centre.

A repudiation of amoral plots, schemes, coups, and seat-of-the-pants bull**** – a howl of frustration from voters, from the most well-heeled to the couch surfers, about the endless weasel words from their disconnected, half-deranged politicians – a group with scant respect for facts and evidence, intermittent competence and no plan in evidence to address the problems the country faces.

20 October 2018 is a clarion repudiation of Punch and Judy politics, of a sideshow signifying nothing, conducted at taxpayer expense. The good people of Wentworth have stood up as a job lot, grabbed politics-as-usual by the lapels, leaned into its smug face, and screamed get stuffed you absolute morons"

And a repudiation of fwits in the media like Alan Jones and Ray Hadley who think they can run the country through a microphone.

They are a disgrace.

I have been listening to a bit of Ray Hadley on 106.7, he is not the sharpest tool in the shed.

He was actually put into a program for the well above average I.Q students or something as a youngster.but didn't apply himself apparently, so he went into race calling.
He's not dumb, neither is Alan Jones. They just seem a bit "corrupt" in that they got rid of Turnbull and now are going after Michael McCormack.

I 've never listened to Hadley , but smart people don't call people murderers without evidence.

Jones needs a constant legal team around him it seems to stop him getting into trouble, and both of them have giant egos. Of course that's not uncommon with a lot who command a microphone. The ABC's Phillip Adams does a pretty good job on the self infatuated commentary front too.
 
So now we have a well hung parliament. They've really ballsed it up this time :) :)

And Hadley is a sock puppet for Murdoch. Nothing more.
 
I think Morrison should call the election ASAP, the media isn't cutting them any slack, even though the economy and fiscal situation is slowly improving.
Today's generation want it now, just make it happen, well Labor will fulfill that requirement give them a go.
Then watch the acrobatics. lol
 
Looks like a Federal Election will be announced soon with Scomo in full steam election mode in Qld today
 
I think he will go early, so Labor don't get the opportunity to back flip on their tax change policies, which the public is starting to get their heads around.
Just my opinion
Bill has had a union background, go in hard, then back off.
Everyone goes, oh that sounds a lot more reasonable, it looked like it was going to be a lot worse.:roflmao:
