If the LNP, who are overtly and arrogantly opposing a $1 an hour pay rise for the poorest workers doing the toughest jobs,
don't absolutely obliterated at this election,
then Australians deserve low wages, rent-for-life, *smile* healthcare and education, a corrupt political system and a *smile* planet.
the good thing about climate change,
is it'll kill the rich too.
slower, yes, but it'll still kill them and their offspring.

but at least we know we deserve those things. what if we deserve worse under Labor? it is the unknown we should be afraid of (according to some.)
its kind of like being *smile* in the arse by a bear in a dark cave,
and being scared to run outside

Barnaby Joyce directs New England preferences to One Nation candidate living in Brisbane
Richard Thomas lives in inner-city suburb of West End in Queensland and did not attend candidates’ forum in Tamworth
unfortunately, it clashes with the dreamtime game
i really wanted to watch the car crash.
I'm still trying to decide whether to go to Dreamtime, I have the ticket as it cost nothing (Roaming Tiger seat) and hate missing Dreamtime, but my daughter is having an election party. Of course, not hard to get to her place from the footy . . . hmm.
Anyway, another day, another leaflet in the mail box, this was the scary independents and chaotic hung parliament version. Wow, this in an electorate where we barely get anything normally. Wilson is looking very worried
Wow, that Liberal ad above, smacks of desperation. They are really afraid of losing too, makes you wonder what they know the next government will uncover.

this doesn't really directly answer your question but is a pretty deep dive into polls and what to make of them

News Ltd calling a loss for Josh is a sign of desperation in the hopes people who toyed with the idea with voting Teal to send Josh a message may decide it's not worth the risk.
Downer was out in Kooyong, campaigning for Josh. Is there a bigger sign of fear than that?

Morrison’s strategy a political masterstroke or moral failure
Moderate Liberals are furious over Scott Morrison’s transphobic foray. It’s a dangerous gambit: burn their seats to win others.

I dont understand why this photo isnt on billboards with Morrisons grubby hands on it?
Labor seem very reserved on corruption.
Are they not prejudicing an ICAC shitstorm?

Australian taxpayers paid almost $20 million to sell the Port of Darwin
Scott Morrison was federal treasurer at the time the port was sold to Chinese company Landbridge in a $506 million deal.
its really all the libs have got tho. "we are a rubbish government but things could be worse".
Their other argument in some seats is "you may not want a Lib government but if you dont vote in the (relatively) "moderate" libs, the right wing nut jobs in the party will take over.
one could easily be mistaken for thinking the Libs dont think they are actually any good at running the country (which may be the 1st thing they have got right since the last election).
even the libs media arm is running with the line "you shouldn't vote against Frydenburg or Dutton could be a future PM:

Turnbull's mission to unseat Liberal moderates is cowardly - and dumb
“The thing people keep forgetting about Malcolm Turnbull,” a political adviser once told me, “is that he’s really bad at politics. I mean he’s just really, really bad at it.”

The Australian will always spin things in a way to help the Liberals. Their numbers point towards Labor winning 80 seats and Monique Ryan winning Kooyong on 52/48 TPP. These are unders and they know it. They are hoping people thinking it’s a tight race may convince some into voting for the status quo. It won’t work, but that’s probably the strategy behind the poll.
The poll sample numbers are not legit anyway. We’re only talking about 125 per electorate, whereas the known pollsters sample 1,000-1,500 people.
Downer, “the things that batter.”
If ever there’s someone born with a silver spoon in the mouth, it’s that self entitled prick.
