Talking Politics

[Sintiger]

Good call re illuminate.
But missed your illuminating response re independents.

Here’s one take on it, but that’s not the whole story. I have been a few teal town hall meetings and a lot of what they talk about is how they have been able to shift some legislation behind closed doors that we don’t hear about. But what we really need is for them to have more power not less through a minority government, so sensible change on things like transparency and reduction of the power of lobbyists can get some traction.

What have they achieved is one question but the real question is what could they achieve!

Interesting to read that Trumps campaign manager snuck in the country over the election to give advice to the Dutton team.

I'm going to go a Greens Party BBQ and pig out on vegetarian snags.

vegebletarian snags, might as well just chow down on a bowl of boiled kale n mung beans, save all the trouble of pureeing n stuffing into a sheath.

 

[TigerMasochist]

Yep, your ignorance rears its ugly head again.

Candidates are not allowed to provide food or the like to electors.

The sausages at polling booths are sold by either a starving state school (denied funds as we apparently have to fund the second pool at a few destitute private schools) or by a charity if the polling booth is at a church, scout hall or the like. Also, you can look this up as there is a useful website giving info about democracy sausages: https://democracysausage.org/federal_election_2025/m/@-29.26198,133.3308,z4.772114/

Ahhh the triple S Datsun in full anal overdrive got the foot to the floor n spinnin *smile* out of the wheels trying to get traction in the mud. Purely a mild joke about buying a sausage sarnie where the atmosphere is tainted by the beige miasma of politics n the outrage pours forth.

Just on your point about the half starved n underfunded schools. Perhaps if some of those political parties you are so enamoured of actually spent some of the billions that they waste n pour down the drain on trash there'd be more than enough money to fund all those impoverished schools properly.

They can't exactly come on here and boast about the great job Trump is doing either, can they.

Why not? Reality never stopped them before.

 

[Tigaman]

Its gunna be all over for some one tonight as the election count progresses. Will it be the bleater who was brought up in a council flat so he never got to use a shovel or the ex tradie who tough it out on the job.

Don't knock vegetable snags till you've tried them. It will be standing room only at the Greens BBQ tonight, free raspberry cordial too, to wash em down.
I hope I don't get busted with my hip flask of Mount Gay rum

What!!

Dutton's as much an ex tradie as I am an ex Prime Minister.

Read his Wikipedia page to find out what he really is. Quite disturbing really.

True, but unlike Trump, I think most posts on here have at least a small grasp of reality. And even just the tiniest but makes it impossible to give him much, if any, credit.

Well sawdust is actually made from shrubbery n medicos n dieticians are always telling people to eat more shrubbery type stuff. As for pig fat. Where the F do ya thing flayva comes from Sinner man? No better flavouring than what ya get from some sizzled up bit of porker when you're having a feed, unless of course you add a good dollop of sizzled up onjions as well.

I know quite a few tradies, but none of them have reached a net worth of $300,000,000.00 yet.

He must be quite the tradie...!

So many sheeple still around. No care to even consider truths, or ascertain facts. Just baaaah Dutt Plug is a hardworking ex-cop... baaaaaaah... Dutt Plug's wife somehow was awarded millions and millions in govt contracts while her husband was in govt. baaaaahh... the Dutt Plug bought a crap tonne of shares in the big four banks the day before the govt he was in announced a bailout for them.

Was able to vote in about 5 minutes at 12.30, in and out. Never seen it like that ever.

The amount of pre-voting must be huge.

The early voting place near me was flat out all week.
