Red, green and teal will make for an interesting palette.

I want someone to take the liberal democrats to task.

They aren't the liberal national party and its extremely confusing for the average punter.

Who the hell are they anyway?


let me clarify this.  I was very confused to see another party named the liberal party, and for a moment the LNP paperwork was the only one missing from my hands.

Its confusing and they shouldn't be allowed to be called the liberal democrats.

They can stand for what they like, I just would hate to think these guys have caused a few people to be confused, particularly people who might be English challenged.

So on voting day I was no clearer on whom to vote for.

The leaders as inspiring as dog poo.

The parties, couldn't tell you about anything they've promised.

The people to vote for in my local constituency, I found out their names on election day.

Kate thwaites who won jagajaga got my vote because she cared enough to win to have been out in person handing out leaflets at the train station at 7.30am. 

Thats no reason to vote for someone but it was the only thing any of my locals did that made me take notice of what they were doing.

Good for her that she won, but I've never cared less about an election.

It doesn't matter what side you favour, I always find politics more 'interesting' when Labor are in government. ;)

I wonder how many people are waking up this morning and quoting Eddie Murphy from "Delirious" - "The m____ f____ won!?"

With a Labour Gov admirably led by the Greens, I and all my fellow hunters can now kiss the time old hunting/gathering goodbye. My father will be turning in his grave, sorry Dad. Fisherman? You're next.

I think we now have to see Labor and the Greens as a coalition like the Libs/Nats given the preference distributions.



It doesn’t have to be such a hard distinction though, a softer right, coupled with less invisible friend who lives in the sky and a resulting acceptance of science and a generous dose of respect/acceptance of women who don’t want to shut up and stay in the kitchen would change that dynamic.
Let’s go BIG !

The Coalition only have themselves to blame, Scomo kept on trying to bullcrap his way through the campaign, you would have thought after the public being exposed to so much Trump bullcrap over the last few years they might have woken up to the fact the negative lying is no longer an election positive for anybody except a welded on numpty.

Then Scomo to add insult to injury tries to sell his Captain's pick Deves as the voice of the downtrodden and unheard, except she is the elite of the elite and didn't say a word throughout the whole campaign! She was for the downtrodden and unheard provided they stayed invisible and unheard!

Frydenberg must be devastated, Scomo's basically thrown him under the bus to make sure the next leader is hand picked from the NSW Right, the Coalition as a result will take a further step towards the extreme right, I suppose someone called Frydenberg doesn't fit that bill!

Some irony in the ALP winning Chisholm off the Coalition given the Coalition always accuse the ALP as being in bed with China, and the ALP oust Liu in an electorate overloaded with Chinese immigrants, that's a hell of a tell that your party is on the nose!

In WA the Coalition said it would keep Hasluck, which needed a 7.%% swing to shift, and they lost it to the ALP!

If the ALP can form a government they probably have 2 or 3 consecutive terms now to see out, because it's going to take a massive swing to make the Coalition relevant again!

I feel sorry for many grass roots Liberals, their party has been hijacked by closet fundamentalists and general public and the Teal has seen through it! The ALP is no better, it's infiltrated by secret eco-terrorists, neither party has any remaining purity.

The big winners are the Independents, that is until they expose themselves for what they really are, because there is a huge difference between getting elected while keeping a secret agenda, and making that agenda public to enact it as policy!

Elections have consequences. Break out the popcorn and coca-cola, this should be fun.

The 13 seats remaining should probably see the ALP get the 5 they need, but if they don't we'll be back in the polling booths within weeks, the 2nd time around what do the Coalition do?

There was some type of loophole that allowed them to keep the name for this election.

im hoping its a hung vote.  Not that I'd like to vote again, but it would be fitting for neither party to convincingly win this one.

Have always respected women, equality should be a given anyway.
Always happy to go with science and progressive thinking, more concerned we have inexperienced members of Parliament with concentration in one area only ie climate change and no other policies and when you look at the Greens website for example their idea of funding their ideas is just to tax the wealthiest Australians which is high school economics.
Would prefer Labor govern in their own right than have to deal and make bargains with these one policy parties who lack a grasp of the big picture and have these simplistic views.
Save the planet by all means but getting the wealthy to pay more tax when they pay little anyway won't work, been tried as recently as with Biden in the USA and scrapped just as quickly.
My daughter is a RN so I know all about women being abused in the workplace, underpaid and undervalued and I'll be happy to cheer and vote for Albo, Penny and crew if they can fix those problems...but I won't be holding my breath.
