I found this election especially problematic.... Who could you vote for... Who seriously deserved it? They are all crap.
Bit bewildered really, don't see how the polling could be so wrong. Three more years of this chaotic do nothing government. Meanwhile our society rots, our economy withers and our environment deteriorates.
But what staggers me the most is how people could return Barnaby Joyce. What can't this bloke get away with?!?

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.
The west generally seems to be swinging to the right. Just read that Marine Le Penn has overtaken Macron in polling in France. Just one example. We are witnessing a major global ideological battle.
Reality always wins in the end.

Which doesn't auger well for a happy, conflict free planet.

It's just the global political climate really.
Right wing governments are getting up pretty much across the world because frankly people are worried about their national identity and erosion of values.
It's just the current state of play.

If they didn't win this time they never will, and I can understand their pain looking at the cast of deadsh1ts that are going to be "managing" the country going forwards.....Freydenberg, Dutton, Joyce and the fringe loonies like Pauline and Anning and the cane toad from Queensland chucking rocks from the sidelines. The country is deadset fuc****ed.
