Vic State Election 22
- Thread starter bengal tigers
- Start date
Agree. I think it all started with Abbott and has been filtering down ever since, then Scomo comes in and the religious influence grew.
A lot of these guys seems to look up to the Republicans in the US, but fail to see that religion is not so set in stone here in Australia, certainly not in the same way as it is in the US (especially in the Southern red states), so these type of approach will continue to alienate them with voters. Last night should be seen as a clear embarassment for the Libs, its obvious that some wanted to vote away from the ALP (hence the 5% swing against them) but couldn't write the Libs name down, and they need to look hard at themselves for that.
If I was eligible to vote (should have done my citizenship years ago, will probably do it in the next few months), I tend to be a swing voter, sitting around the iddle. I like balance to politics so ongoing wins to 1 side tends to breed complacency in politics but the Libs continue to move themselves further from centre voters. They seem to believe that certain hot topics like the environment only interest the far left, which is completely wrong, I'd say the vast majority of Australians (bar the head in the sand crowd) understand we need to do something about these issues, but the Libs don't want to touch it, just an example of how they move further away from centre voters.
All playing very nicely into the ALP's hands at both state and federal levels.
I wonder when the Lib owning media will realise that their constant ALP/Independant bashing and promotion of all things Coalition is actually destroying the party they own.
If they put even a little bit of balance and gave the Libs a hard time for their ineptitude, it might force the conservatives to take running a government seriously and clean out the party of the extreme nutjobs.
What happened in Victoria yesterday was as clear indication that the MSM agendas are ineffectual and the MSMS itself becoming irrelevant. Not a good place to be if you're a media mogul.
Though it would be interesting to see HUN subscriber demographics overlayed with yesterday's results. There might still be a section of the population that believes what they read in the HUN, but it's clearly nowhere near enough to have any influence on the Government.

It also shows that the punters ignore the MSM and realise how biased it is.
We have had the industrial age,We have the technology age,and now we have the Victorian state age of entitlement .
People of Victoria ,you do not have to pay for anything ,the Labor government will pay for everything ,we have a blank check ,nothing is too big or small.
We will bring back the Sec to cut your power costs and will be publicly owned ,although 49 percent will be private investment ,and we will give them bread crumbs in return,nothing to fear people the Labor government has it all under control,although you may have to wait until we find new technology to give you constant power.
Also our great project the rail loop,we have have 35 billion already costed for this amazing project,although we may need another 90 billion or more,but again we will get private investment and again give them bread crumbs in return .
And thank you to my union friends ,the Labor party would like to thank the CFMEU for texting your members to vote for Labor thank you,we will keep you in work ,and over pay all your members .
And thank you to my new friends in the HSU ,again thank you for texting members to vote Labor ,l hope our donation to you was sufficient ,never mind the Ibac investigation ,they don't call me teflon Dan for nothing.
To my friends in the Green and teals,and Dlp,thank you for continued preferences ,and look forward to your assistance when needed in the upper house,we will scratch your back,and you will scratch ours,,remember no cost is too big.
And to my brilliant campaign manager and advisors ,for knowing all our lies would not be held to account.
The cuts guy add was brilliant ,and accusing them of potential fracking really got all our climate fanatics on side.
Disclaimer.......The Labor party will not be held responsible for any future extra costs, that people and future generations will have to pay to cover our blank checks.
We also will not be held responsible if we can't get any private investment for our projects,we currently have a world financial crisis,and talk of recession could be a possibility.
Also when we say bread crumbs we mean gold bars .

Guy wanted to change the slogan on Vic numberplates. A few suggestions:
Victoria - F*ck You Rupert
Victoria - Cookers Be Gone
Victoria - We See You
State and federal, across the nation, the Libs are approaching their DLP moment. The decent, moderate, progressive types and the far right and religious loons can't stay in bed together much longer. The party will fracture or be completely taken over by the extremists. Either way it's a recipe for a long time in opposition.
Telling that Dan didn't thank the HUN, Sky, Channel 9, Channel 7, The Age or 3AW.
This is pretty funny given the LNP promised to spend just as much if not more.
Credit for nailing your colours to the mast of a worm riddled, sinking ship BT.
Not many do
So they've altered the requirements for valid votes then. Used to be that anything added beyond clear numbering of the candidates was instantly invalid.
Might have to consider voting next time around n take the opportunity to doodle round the borders of the vote ticket.
Really ,how many of Labors big projects have been costed.
And the Libs where going to scrap the Rail loop,and who is going to pay for all the house holds who have gas,to turn electric.
Labors campaign was brilliant,the opposition just sat back and let everything they promised go unaccountable.
The rail loop is decades overdue, will help ease congestion on roads and make life easier for millions.
The transition from gas to electric should be funded nationally by the windfall profits tax the federal government should impose on the price-gouging gas cartels.

Its funny you blame/credit Labors victory to lies, while you keep repeating the lies the libs and newscorp tried to spread.
Labor won because many support the governing they have done, and because the libs completely failed to offer any decent opposition. How responsible each of those reasons are is up to individuals to decide what they believe.
Lies lolol,my wifes has 3 friends who are in the health industry ,they got text messages from the HSU TO VOTE FOR LABOR.
HSU are part of the current Ibac investigation into Andrews.
The cuts guy their where no health cuts,and Guy wasn't even health minister,Federal government cuts health funding .
I never heard the Libs saying they where going to frack,in fact a lot of them voted against it.
What l find bizarre and concerning is Labor people thinking ,all these projects don't come at a cost ,they think the governments have endless pockets,everything comes at a cost.
Both things can be true.
Liberal leadership sucks, will prioritise now over the future and has too many misogynistic religious nut jobs in it and hands out money to friends and labour is profligate with spending and favours union mates but has coherent leadership.
Pick your poison. Political system generates what we get.
