Might as well put this up in the politics subforum, to spare the front page. It's 18 months away or so, but here we go.

This is how Dutton wins:

Thats an insult to those old men, most callers would be holding the current government or PM to account. (no matter which party is in power)

But nah Supa totally ignores the failings and lies of the current government and PM and instead hangs on every word of the opossition.

Albo could quite literally do a crap in Supas mouth while Dutton hands him.a beer and Super would whinge that the beer isnt cold enough.

Ashsam. Hi.

Isn’t that what you’re actually doing , just in another context, as soon as some ‘news’ is posted on a media platform , you hasten to get it up here.

Supafreak the old man on the radio,

Ashsam downloading from news platforms from the internet.

Looks pretty much the same to me. Maybe i wrong, but I think I’m right.

"Mr Albanese initially suspended her from sitting in caucus for the parliamentary fortnight, but he made the suspension indefinite when she appeared on Insiders on Sunday to say she would cross again."

Credit where credit is due, good on Albo and Labor on this one, she needs to go to some fringe nutter party like the Greens, although im sure her and her supporters views on things like LGBTQI rights etc might differ somewhat.

You have obviously missed the posts that Ive put saying how I’m disappointed in Albo and from day 1 didn’t see him as a strong leader and I much prefer Jim Chalmers . I also believe Jason Clare will one day make a great leader . Go through my posts indo where I’ve said labor need to show some balls when it comes to tax reform and gas prices . You ignore what spud and the leftovers do constantly and never call them out . Do you honestly believe Australia would be in a better position if labor hadn’t been elected ? you’re living up to your name “ dreaming “ truth is indo you rarely read what others have posted because you’re in such a rush to spew forth your garbage .

Easy to see Australia becoming ungovernable before too long. The parliament mirroring the societal trend to organise itself into identity groups. Making majority government impossible and coalition government inherently unstable. Payman’s a cool cat and a charismatic character. Gonna be around for a while.

Wild how senators like Payman can get only 1681 votes and end up a senator until 2027…..I think Lydia Thorpe was similar….crazy system….
That’s a big paying job for a long time and your head on telly every 5 minutes pumping your views and the media froth on them…..what a joke….its pretty embarrassing really.

End of an Empire! Future Britain boycotts Democratic Commonwealth Pageantry
UK Labour's Democratic Landslide mirrors Oz Labor Disaster.
NEW Labour Leader has zero idea or connect with unfolding #1 Disillusioned Youth Crisis..

2019 > 67% turnout = 18-34yrs (Just 54.5% of this demographic Voted)
2024 > 59.9% turnout = 18-34yrs (? > 50% Voted)= Minority = Zero Future Govt Mandate
New Landslide PM just won lowest ever mandate over lowest ever engaged future Britain.
New leader is at best engaging with as little as 3m of 16m (16-35yrs) Future of Britain!
https://www.statista.com/statistics/745928/population-of-the-uk-by-age-2...
NEW Labour Yuppie has zero street cred & will be preoccupied with Making Plans for Nigel.

Now ask! Who anywhere reported, acknowledged or apologized for UK rolling out #1 Future Crisis!
All away with the fairies with head in the clouds as British Empire fades in rear view mirror.
Russia / China need not lift a finger...
Just sit and watch UK PM restrict British Empire to 33.8% of 50% future generational engagement.

Both UK/Oz Leaders recorded lowest ever Vote % victories in lowest ever turnouts. (Zero Anchors!)
If it looks like a Landslide then it is...only it doesn't stop...Ask DJ Albo...Now Drowning not Waving!

Democracy is officially Dead giving rise to Putin's puppet right wing Nazi Nationalists

[factcheck] Speaking of Nazis
#1 UK Leader Winston Churchill was never voted in as a War PM by party or voters
He does however record UK's highest ever R/U Vote Tally...which slipped him into a PM Nest Egg role.

tbb will share this Death of UK Democracy Anomaly
1950 = 83.9% highest % Voter turnout
1955 = 82.6% highest # Voter turnout
1955 = 48.8% 13,948,385 voted for Labor Leader but lost Election to Churchill who polled 48%

1992 = 41.9% (14,094,116 = 'UK #1 Highest # of votes' were for PM John Major)
2001 = 59.4% *Lowest Voter % turnout handsomely rewarded 10,703,654 votes 40.7% to Blair!
*Say lowest but current 2024 low turnout is tipped to fall rather than rise!

2017 = 68.8% highest '21st century' Voter turnout
2017 = 40% 12,877,918 vote 'Corbyn' but lost to UK#2 highest Votes 13,966,454 (42.3% B Johnson!)

Reason to share, shows how easily... gullible Tabloids slipped down their Democratic UK Land Slide.

2024 = 59.9% is *2nd lowest Voter % turnout over last century...(Quote : Final figures lean lower!)
2024 = Record Electoral Boycott by Disillusioned UK Youth
2nd lowest 9,712,011= Kier's lowest % UK PM Party Vote(vs)Conservatives 23.9% mirrors 2022 Oz.
[factcheck] 14 UK Party leaders polled more Votes than Kier to never become UK PM.
Current Landslide heralds nothing more than 37th most voted UK pollie + Most on the nose at home!
A bit harsh tbb... Quite simply UK Voted him such without any here assisting!

Expert : "In the future if 53.5% of 1955 Labour voters refused to vote they'd win 2024 UK Election!"
Reminding of 55m 1955 pop (vs) 68m pop = 24% more Voters
(Not in 2024 > 53.5% Less voters on such pathetic low Vote turnout = More! Go figure!)
That's how we roll...in Little Britain! None give it a cursory glance!

All wish the egg on New Leader's face stops there...
Better sweep the seats for Emperor's New Clothes
67.5% Turnout +49.2% J Corbyn (Ex #1 Labour now Ind) vs Labour 34.4% (-29.9%)
65.7% Turnout -15.8% PM Rishi 47.5%
54.46% Turnout -17.4% New Labour PM Keir Starmer 48.9%

Summary >
Correct > Less turnout with Bigger swings against the New guy & his team than supposed losers?
Again...not tbb...that's the UK people whole making a stand, again without the media & leader listening.
New Leader : Keeps thanking public that voted his trump card >
Polls show he lost every hand & got lucky coz all cashed in...Mine Precious! Comes to mind!

No doubt the Torries got smashed but incoming Labour are smashed more than any before they begin.

Ironic that Nigel broke Right wing UK away from Red Tape Left Wing Europe...
Russia / China's Civil unrest is flooding 40-80% EU Crimes / Prisons/ Hospitals with mass cost blowout.
UK is only just hittin' 25% as yet (vs) Germany has 50% 1,000,000 o/s prisoners rising 20% yr.
EU are All Voting for National Front uprising to clean up the streets & empty out their prisons!
Whole of EU soon in unison with China / Russia / Israel ...o/s Prisoner rights are gettin' too expensive...
Reclaim our Nations > Wall 'em Up & lock the gates > Shoot any Bastard that lands on the beach!
Sounds like a really popular 2024 UK election Policy that plenty just voted for!

Putin : "Mr A ...order Rupert the Russian Bear to wind up Nigel...world luvs us funny little Macho guys!"

NEW Centrist Yuppie Labour has miles less Youth pulling power than Hodad Socialist core Labour.
New Labour Yuppie's Pitch Perfect Blair Project disengages 80% Future Britain Youth.
New Labour : "We're only making Plans for Nigel!"

Probably not. In the unlikely event he ever gets out of London, treks up to South Shields and looks out across the North Sea. Over in Germany, AdF came in second - ahead of the Social Democrats - amongst 16 and 17 yr olds who voted for the first time in recent German elections. Thanks to a reform backed by the left.

"...No doubt the Torries got smashed but incoming Labour are smashed more than any before they begin..."

pretty funny listening to the self congratulating labour stooges on media saying it was all about good quality targeted policy and campaigning whilst bagging torries for opposite...

it was more a desperate slide across the line with minimal votes across a landslide of seats than any sort of approval of anything they said / did / will do...

"...Both UK/Oz Leaders recorded lowest ever Vote % victories in lowest ever turnouts. (Zero Anchors!)
If it looks like a Landslide then it is...only it doesn't stop...Ask DJ Albo...Now Drowning not Waving!..."

you're more right on the money there tbb than you even realise...

they have no mandate

(yet they will arrogantly cash in their non existent mandate chips...)

^^^ - which is probably why albo is on the receiving end of so much hate and hostility... the faithful will blame murdoch, dutton, rwnj's blah blah blah...

but the truth is... when you just scrape it in on 30% of the vote, you have already got 70% hating on you before you're even sworn in...

so you better be careful how you play it...

better be careful what you do...

the haters are watching you like a hawk

UK, US, OZ - seems 'the double haters' are now one of the biggest voting blocks there is!

Actually have done exactly that. It's a bleak view in winter looking over that part of the North Sea, and was cold and flat when I did it. Followed up by getting on the piss with the Geordies, after 2 pints things were unintelligible.
