Thread about a past player?

The post you replied to was originally relating to the 15Billion debarkle and then shifted to whos names appear on voting papers, hence the reference to off topic.

i get its a specialty of those who cant keep on the topic of local matters when it doesnt suit their political views.

Its there for all to see 🤓
You're disingenuous, basically projecting your own behaviour, except as a tactic you are rubbish at it.

Everyone engaged in the Peter Dean bashing thread and this thread knows you're making a goose of yourself. What we don't know if it's you being deliberate to cross post and wind people up, or if you are just genuinely naive, chaotic and erratic.

But the more you post it becomes clearer and clearer you have little to say that is worth reading, you're painting yourself as either a rock thrower, sufferer of Dunning Kruger syndrome or genuinely detached from reality.

Don't go postal, get help, you genuinely need help I'm not joking.

You again refused to read my replay and answer it and went with a personal dig all in an attempt to avoid admitting the dean assault posts had absolutely nothing to do with when you chimed in.

By the way im so curious why did you choose to pipe up when you did yet crickets from
you when all the original posts were made about the wasting of 15billion dollars - now why would that be the case i wonder 😏?

Note- dont forget to include the dean assault again🥴

But you said that the current State government wasn’t democratically elected.

thats not what i said at all!!

my comment was relating to allan not being elected democratically.

she was elected by her party and i stand by that.

I understand what your saying but dont agree with it.

anyhow we are going in circles

The leader of every government and opposition in Australia is elected by their Party; Sussan Ley was elected by the Liberals in Canberra, now it's Angus Taylor.  We had Rudd-Gillard-Rudd, then Abbott-Turnbull-Morrison, all PMs elected by their parties.  The Victorian opposition has had Guy-O'Brien-Guy-Pesutto-Battin-Wilson, all elected by the Liberal party room.  And we've had Baillieu-Napthine and then Andrews-Allan as Premier.  The voters don't have a say in it.

I get that you don't like Allan, or Andrews, but Allan was democratically elected, as was her government, and she is Premier in accordance with the Westminster principles of government that have been in place in Victoria since 1855.

As stated, you don’t vote for a leader.
You vote for a person in a group and the biggest group votes for one of their mates to be the boss.
You might think that the boss of one group has nice hair and white teeth but you don’t get to vote for them usually.
The best you can hope for is that that guys group is the biggest and that they subsequently make him boss but again, you usually don’t get to vote for him.

So in a political thread discussing state politics elections are off topic, while in a thread about a past player being bashed in a car jacking in NSW we have to talk state politics!

Sure, we understand! ::)

But you said that the current State government wasn’t democratically elected.  Despite their many faults, the ALP was democratically elected with a thumping majority  - and a weak opposition of any flavour means that we have to rely on the media to keep the government on track, and that’s not good.

And the party leaders’ names are only on the ballot papers for their own electorates.  In fact it wasn’t so long ago that party affiliations weren’t permitted on ballot papers - and that’s why how to vote cards came into being.

The blokes clinging to their spot play safe and as a result they won't get us a win, they play safe because they know those welded into the squad are safe no matter what happens!

Why is their name on the ballot form
if your not electing the leader?
Unless you were in Allens or Andrews seat their names weren't on your ballot form.
