LOL Liberal spokesdroid saying the lesson is they need to shift further to the right, having been smashed, for the second election in a row, by an allegedly centre-left party

Similar trend happening as in Werribee by-election, a big swing against Labor that's spraying all over the shop with much of it finding its way back on preferences.

No good news for the Tories here

He's called it!

Yay. Less than hour 'til Antony Green starts giggling over his big touch screen. (For one of the last times sadly.)

Democracy manifest. Love elections.

Australia has a site for democracy sausages and cake stalls on election day ...

'Cause of course we do.

https://social.chinwag.org/@abc_bot/114123803376124701 I'm so utterly disinterested in this. I shan't even bother trying to watch His Maj Antony Green's wizardry on Aunty tonight. Whilst tis obvs that Lab will win again, i feel no positive passion at all about that. WA is totes state-captured by the abominable gas industry, & WA Lab have zero ethical superiority over their Liebs-Nats opponents. They're all climate-criminal arseholes.

#auspol #wapol Libs are already running attack ads against the WA Labor govt ahead of the WA election in March.

#auspol #wapol This is a reflection of how racist WA is that the Liberal Party thinks this is a vote winner.

"WA's Liberal leader, Libby Mettam, has echoed the pledge of Federal Opposition Leader, Petter Dutton, to not stand in front of the Aboriginal flag if elected to the top office in March. "

It’s effectively a hand-out for construction companies and middle class buyers.

It’s not going to address the people most affected by the housing crisis.
Why is Australia so slow with public housing and other reforms, when compared with other countries and their response?!
