Bloody hell, this campaign is... a campaign!

Morrison's a clown and Shorten's making a few stuff-ups.

Also, where are all the Liberal ministers? They must be in witness protection. Except for Baaaanaby. If you haven't heard it, you should check out his mad spray on radio, 20 minutes of drunken, incoherent rambling. One of the most bizarre things I've heard in a political campaign.

Honestly, if you know someone voting conservative, work to change their minds,

I really don't know who or what to vote for this time around.

Third parties really aren't an option any time are they?

Barney was campaining for the Labor party, if you go by the number of mentions in that interview.

Let me simplify it for you.

Libs promised to lower electricity prices and give us a $500 rebate. Neither of those have happened... and they have promised the same thing again, because it worked so well last time.

Also:

Plus:
Clive Palmer doing a deal with LNP which meant he has some kind of approval for a mine even bigger than Adani to go ahead.

Research. Yes, it takes time, but you don't want to vote for anyone but Labor, because depsite waht ads, propaganda and the Murdoch press tell you, the continuation of the LNP is so much worse!

Yes indeed.

Voting for the LNP is like voting for a clean shit sandwich vs a mouldy shit sandwich. Hmmmm tough choice there.


BTW if the LNP lose the election I guess Scomo will be toppled as leader. They just can't hang onto them can they?

Dumping the leader after an election loss is common on both sides. The real story will be who is the next LNP leader? Abbott? Dutton? Some people are scared enough of that aspect to make sure they lose their seats.

In other news, I have temporarily relocated to the Qld Sunshine Coast from the NSW Central Coast. This may be for 6 months or 18 months, we'll have to see.
 
I'm voting for whoever gives me the most. I am so sick of conscious voting. Life is short and I'm putting me and mine first.
 
I have to go out today to vote for one member of the Tasmanian Legislative Council (our Upper House). Five candidates and they are a dismal selection

CORNISH, Ronald
Independent (but aligned with the Liberals)
DI FALCO, Carlo
Shooters, Fishers, Farmers Tas
JOHNSON, Kristy
Liberal Party
MULDER, Tony
Independent (but a formal Liberal)
SIEJKA, Jo
Australian Labor Party

I guess I will vote for Jo.
