I think the influence of Palmer and Pauline is what won the election for the libs....and that's a scary foreshadowing of us going down the US path.
Agree on Palmer, Pauline and i'd also add the Greens....the latter have been taking votes off Labor and have really worked against them IMO.
If there were no Greens most of those votes would go to Labor. The other problem Labor have that Penny Wong alluded too was that Labor cannot buy a vote in rural/mining areas
and she said that Queensland was always going to be a tough ask even though the polls were saying different. Jobs were always going to win out over the environment and that even with a Labor State Govt they cant win those outer areas.
