The “Democracy Sausage”?
Any ideas?
Brought to mind the old adage / joke about:
Watching laws getting made was very like watching sausages being made.
And I suspect that this was not intended as a compliment.
Bring it on.
It didn’t take me long to draw a big dick on my ballot paper and I am sure a big dick will actually win.
Channel Nein early bolters in the slimiest panel stakes, top showing. ABC under pressure to whip up an even more disgraceful team.
Before TE’s Lotto closes, I’ll give you St Ruth’s prediction.
ScoMo comfortably in a Klaus Scwab WEF fix.
A monkey-pox on both their houses.
So much for secret ballots.
Lower House – numbered the Phon candidate 1, the UAP candidate 2. Clearly crossed out the rest so as to prevent any “repurposing” of my ballot. This will allegedly be considered an “informal vote”.
The senate – below the line including SFF, Liberal Democrats, PHON and UAP. The 12 boxes were exhausted quickly. No majors at all. Nada, Zip, Zero.
Then there was the “full and frank exchange of views” with the labore and greenfilth HTV idiots. More on that to be posted soon.
Last gasp for voters in the eastern States, but election eve party kicking off early at 4.00pm WA time at Casa Pedro with the first jelly bag of plonk tapped with due ceremony.
Four TV’s set up to cover all the range of election eve pundits, laptop ready for wise commentary to the Cat, possibly becoming less wise as the beer and plonk stocks are consumed.
Betting tickets totalling $126 attached to the fridge door with a possible payout of about $4K if they all come in (highly unlikely as I bet $5 on Our Pauline being PM on 22 May). Some other bets equally as dubious, wishful thinking.
ALP by 5 is my gloomy pick, alas.
Let the games begin!
Pancho – has St Ruth been banned? He’s been very “reticent” of late.
Liberal scrutineers want Scomos valid votes to include ballot papers with hand drawn penises.
I’m too jaded to even bother watching tonight. I shall rely on the always entertaining Cat Commentary.
Is it over yet?
And get stuck into the single m as lts.

Oh wait. Might be the fault of large dressing on operators mangled right hand. As you were.
I don’t think so.

No doubt he will be here tomorrow or late tonight with a “told youse so” wordwall.
The book has now closed….
13 Cats are saying the Coalition will win
8 Cats are saying there will be a hung parliament

Rosie LNP by one; nothing for teals, 1 green 2 independents
Megan LNP chancers, morons and grifters B team to fall over the line by one from the LAB chancers, morons and grifters A team.
Roger LNP to win 73 seats (ALP 72) & form government with support of independents
Fair Shake Scomo as a minority government…after two weeks of recounts. He takes it by 2
Chris Put me down for 3?????
Hung parliament
Delta A Hung parliament – 74 seats each – with Greens and One nation voting each way. Rebekha Sharkie (Centre Alliance) going with LNP.
Bar Beach Swimmer SFLs at 74, Liars at 66, the rest on the crossbench made up of the current crop, less Helen Haines (go sfw!) and the rest, fingers crossed, a combo of UAP/ON.
2dogs Hung parliament with about 65 each for the majors
Armadillo hung Parliament with one teal holding the balance of power
MatrixTransform Liars 67; Crossbench 13; LNP 71
EvilElviss hung, LNP 71, Lab 70, ferals (hopefully conservative…) 10.
132andBush hung but unworkable parliament and back to the polls before Christmas
Rickw Hung Parliament….. by an angry mob!
Labor to win:
pete m Labor to win by 10 seats
thefrollickingmole ALP up by 10.
Behind Enemy Line 86 seats
Pedro the Loafer ALP by 5
Bruce in WA ALP by four
Rabz Labore at least 78 seats
Not Uh oh 78
Vagabond Liars (76) ahead of SFLs (70) by 6 seats but a crossbench of 5 loonies to make life interesting.
Cassie of Sydney two or three seats
Crossie Labor will squeak in
Leon L ALP + Greens + TEALS 90; LNP et al 61
Sancho Labor – 76; LNP – 73; Greens – 1; Teal – 1; UAP – 0
Well, that’s no fun. I predicted Libs to be contrarian, and it turns out I’m just part of the crowd.
Still, a pretty even split. Maybe it will be a hung parliament. (Not changing my prediction, though).
Trolling comments on Facebook and late comments other blogs, I feel confident it’ll be about 81 Labor and affiliates, and 70 to LNP and its allies.
Nope …. My electorate, she usually sides Left
I like the sound of Pedro’s place.
Better than this tractor cab.
Where’s Munty? Perhaps he’s getting his sequined onsee on in anticipation of a victory lap.
Laura Tingle on Our ABC with a hairdo that looks like she just stuck her finger in an electric light socket. Dunno what she had to say, the uncouth louts here were mocking too loudly.
Sky has Peta Credlin on the panel. Classy lady, nicely dressed, talking in riddles though.
It’s that or she’s seen Gezs’ (completed) ballot paper.
Channel Nein early bolters in the slimiest panel stakes, top showing. ABC under pressure to whip up an even more disgraceful team.
Squallid and the channel 10 crew will give them stiff opposition.
A voter encounters some Amoral Drones handing out labore and greenfilth propaganda:
AD ALP: “Have some Labore propaganda, you sucker!”
Voter: “Tony Burka is a corrupt evil piece of filth, which I’ve known since our days at St P#*doph*les”.
AD ALP: “Yeah but Goose Morristeen went to Hawaii during the worst evah bushfires in this country’s history, caused by gerbil worming, I tells ya!”
Voter: “SO WHAT”
AD ALP: “He has to go, blah blah blah …”
Voter: “Stop trying to engage me in conversation, you idiot, enough”
AD Greenfilth: “You want to vote for us” (statement not question)
Voter: “You are a pack of evil obnoxious hypocrites – hey everyone, here’s someone who wants to destroy our civilisation”
AD Greenfilth: “Well, aren’t we all supposedly articulate, I tells ya”
Voter: I’m a lot more articulate and intelligent than you, you moron.
AD Greenfilth: “Well, I’ve got far more useful things to do than speak to the likes of you”
Voter: “Yeah, like spruiking the greenfilth, you cretin”
Exchange abruptly ends … 🙂
I tried the Dorper test to see who would win the election battle. I got th resident hound to bark at them, if they ran to the left – ALP wins, to the right -LNP wins.
They just stood and looked at me.
Dorper test apparently unreliable.
Election nights make me feel the same as going on a blind date,..’expect the worst , but hope for the best’. Yes people. As a young man I did go on a blind date.
Yes.
Hinting that she might support the Libs (under 367 onerous fine-print conditions) is simply a bait-and-switch to harvest wavering Liberal voters.
She is solid left feigning sensible centre.
Classic Xenophon.
The Dorper-o-meter says hung Parliament.
err – I did not swear (I swear) and tried not to present as in any way prone to random outbursts of violence (apart from the Bayern jacket – the ten holes being left back in the cottage).
However, they were addressed at top note so that other voters could hear. 🙂
Too hard today because of the tight queues, but we have a favourite election day ploy.
I walk briskly ahead of Mrs P.
Mrs P stops and takes the Green HTV.
I turn and say, “I told you! You’re not voting for them!”
She meekly hands back the HTV and follows behind me with head bowed.
It really pisses off the Greta Thumbergs among the Green-Left HTV drones.
It’s very quiet.
Pancho – thanks for that very disappointing news. No doubt there’s more to come. 😕
132andBush….I watched the vid you posted of the JD harvester…50 tonne a hour. What a machine.
Checking in…
Click…
Yep…
Hi Cats! …
Yep…
Hold on to your hat and let’s get ready to rumble!
Election 2022
Just watching Dave Pellewe’s election coverage on youtube. It’s very good. Interestingly, one of the panellists, a man who’s a UAP or PHON candidate, has said re. the freedom parties on the right that you can’t have people like Ricardo Bosi getting up yelling abuse at people. It doesn’t work and it’s not a good look.
Anyway, get ready for a Labor government. The swing is on.

That’s awesome. I wish I could have seen it.
She meekly hands back the HTV and follows behind me with head bowed.
Next time, have Mrs P wear one of those Handmaid’s Tale caps.
I went to the polling station three times before the queue was short enough to be in. I was approached by three Kate Chaney htv spruikers. I explained that I was putting her last for three reasons:
1. She was either too ignorant and too stupid to work out that anthropogenic climate change is a scam, or she was venal enough to be in on it. Each horn of the dilemma led to me putting her last.
2. Her blasted ads kept on at me at the beginning of every video I watched and were infuriatingly moronic.
3. Half of said ads mentioned her integrity that she wanted to take to Canberra. As I remarked earlier, I’m with the bloke who wrote:”The louder he talked of his honour, the faster we counted our spoons.”
I eventually got in. I resisted drawing a penis. I put uap first and phon second and Kate last, just after the green. Then in the senate I put phon first and uap second. Working out who is the least horrible is the problem. I wish they could all come last.
Richo on Sky says his intelligence is that the Liars are already home.
Some background on the Amoral Drones, to provide some additional context – the labore one looked about 22 and still had spots, the greenfilth was a white middle class middle aged inner city type, of nominally male persuasion. Unsurprisingly, they were also set up as some sort of tag team.
To emphasise their total lack of imagination (or original thought) the labore drone had a red t-shirt on (with labore across the front in white lettering) and the greenfilth scumbag wore a green t-shirt mainly covered by some sort of indistinct faded bleu track jacket, while very grey and with Erkos.
Impressive, they were not.
Richo on Sky says his intelligence is that the Liars are already home.
He’s backing Albo, enough said about his intelligence.
So it’s 2019 all over again. Thanks, Tom.
Gutted like a fish.*
*Feel free to look it up, Cats.
My sincere hope is that the minor/freedom/anti mandate parties on right side of the spectrum get the balance of power.
The swing is on.
Swing or switch? Depends on the AEC Mongs.
I made reference to the polling place as a “democracy sausage factory” for exactly that old analogy, and sadly it was apparently interpreted more literally by some.
The Great Preset made the election result before the date was announced. The major parties will acquiesce to the instructions from Schwab School and Five Eyes on all issues of major importance, plus will initiate whatever other vague matters of trifling importance had been made the debating points of the public campaigns.
Paul Murray saying the independent in front in Fowler!
Rabz.
Any signs of monkeypox on the tug team?
PT
That would be a minimum in good conditions.
By the time I had actually voted the sausage sizzle had closed down. So I got a meat pie and a bottle of pol roger. I’m going to need to be drunk to find out which useless, incompetent bunch of parasites we’re going to be getting to bugger us.
I’ve eaten the meat pie and started on the pol rogér. Time for a refill.
Yeah, best we just silently tolerate similar behaviour from the likes of Hydia Thorpe, Wendy Pong and the Bum Bandit.
From what I’ve seen so far it’s going to be close.
+100
While my message here has been about hating the Libs, I’ve been selling balance-of-power arguments to all of my contacts.
Tribal leftards are already claiming the Liars have won — a well-known propaganda tactic to put their opponents off-balance.
Yep. So much for the wonders of “liberal democracy”.
May as well wheel out the Standartenführer to commence the rogering on an industrial scale.
All together now:
You will own nothing
You will exist in a pod
You will eat the bugs
You will be happy
Or else …
Tribal leftards are already claiming the Liars have won — a well-known propaganda tactic to put their opponents off-balance.
Or to influence the vote in WA. Polls there don’t close for 40 minutes.
Sky talking head reporting that Spender is surging ahead in Wentworth.
Much mirth here at all those wealthy suburbanites pissing away their vote.
Very disappointing performance by the Freedom Parties. No wonder the Libs veered left to avoid a wipeout. Looks like Australia is drowning in the quicksand transforming into a socialist shithole for at least a generation to come.
Have any politicians died of monkey pox yet?
Something we can all get behind.
By heaven the ABC is annoying — the nation’s strangler fig – feeding on the host while killing it.
Tom , for what purpose?
LOL – Dim Wilson on Sky attempting to explain the following: “Teal independents ahead in gliberal seats”
FTATV coverage unwatchable due to panels. Sky bearable but Reece is a drawback.
Only ALP seat I have seen covered in trouble is Keneally. Early days but still think it will be a minority government ALP way.
Early results good for filth and the rich brat’s whores. Electors are fucked in the head.
Still voting in WA.
Looks like Australia is drowning in the quicksand transforming into a socialist shithole for at least a generation to come.
The Mongs are going to have to learn the lesson the hard way.
I could barely bring myself to look at them, Mole.
Party guest just arrived from voting.
Desolate scene at the polling booth, all the HTV urgers gone home and about five late voters, one of whom seemed too drunk to stand up much less vote coherently.
Still about 35 minutes for the alleged WA landslide to begin.
Aussie as. 🙂
JC, leftards just want to claim victory without waiting for it to be confirmed. It’s infantile. They’re like three-year-old girls lining up for treats from Daddy.
Why learn from reading history when you can suffer the whole thing??
dunno whether to scoff or be scared witless
worst part is, it could also be true
I just can’t believe the numbers for the Teals.
I’d prefer a hanged parliament.
Yeah, yeah, NaDT … 😕
Is this an Albanese joke?
Piss poor bell whether as well.
FFS Sky why give Stegall a platform?
However listening to her, wow she is even more an airhead than I imagined…
Gay B.C. is citing 7% of the ballots counted, L/NP on 42 seats, ALP on 29.
I’m ashamed, utterly ashamed to live in Wentworth alongside scum who vote for these Teals.
Sacré bleu, Tommy. You really are an ol’ fashioned personage.
Much like Doc Beaugy.
I just can’t believe the numbers for the Teals.
Indeed.
Give that man a cigar — he got it in one!! Except I would opt for two generations … at the minimum.
in my neck of the woods it prolly the slug entsch to retain. scary greens numbers but. 13% counted

During my usual ring-around/email of candidates I asked Jassmine Wood, one of Sharkie’s seniors, that question: with whom would she side in the event of a hung parliament. I was assured that she is aware that ours is a conservative electorate, and would vote accordingly… which, from a grasping politician, means precisely zilch.
… be a carbon based lifeform existing on this planet*.
*A view that may yet be re-imagined pending more of this evening’s results … 😕
Have a bumper sticker made – “Don’t blame me, I voted for a real political Party.”
Bluddee hell – Allegra romping home in Wankworth …
Their ABCess says:
So there’s the mainstay of Uniparty ammunition, the postal votes. People who voted before election day are risk averse, therefore more likely leftist and Uniparty (Lib/Lab/Grn) adherents. The comments above that the pro-freedom parties are doing badly so far (merely 90 minutes into counting) is consistent with this risk aversion hypothesis.
No mention of how many mysterious phone votes there have been. Possibly by Tuesday we will be told how many. If the number is less than 100,000 I will admit to being overly cynical about that particular avenue for election rigging.
urb
Saw some mail on a NQ blog this morning that Entsch was gone. Not surprised at the early results.
North Sydney, Mackellar, Wentworth going, going, gone.
So much for selling your souls for net zero emissions. Where did it get ya Dave, Trent and Jason?
Swings against Labor in Tasmania……Labor in trouble in Parramatta.
I think we were all very wrong. Morrison should have veered much further left to take votes off Labor. Depressingly, about the only real conservatives left in the country are the people on this blog.
Any suggestions on a suitable disguise. If (when?) Albo gets his grubby hands on the levers I shall be so embarrassed that I will spend the next three years incognito.
My son left some cider in the fridge which is 8.4%
It’s because as collectivists, they follow winner’s bias, which is juvenile bragging rights to stress their compliance with their new ant overlords.
They simply believe everyone suffers the same psychology, that everyone will submit to mob rule and change votes accordingly.
I’m not watching any coverage.
Going to indulge in a cup of tea, too.
Labor to get 83 odd seats
Albo PM – free thai massages for 1 week to celebrate!
North Sydney, Mackellar, Wentworth going, going, gone.
Trade ’em for Parramatta and outer suburban seats. Would be liberating to be free at last of the SFLs inclined to sing hymns to Gaia.
Hmmm…the Teal vote.
It appears the wealthy have decided to switch off the power on the poor.
As they have always done.
If only, CL. Mole is referring to the pair of braindead collectivist drones encountered today while “exercising my democratic rites”.
Interesting early results but with a massive postal and pre-poll vote, which usually skews middle/right, a hung shit show could still be on the cards.
Doesn’t wok that way, John.
Law of diminishing marginal utility. They went too far left and thereby gave the mob logical cause to make a choice based on personality and vibe.
It’s just anecdotal but the vitriolic dislike of the Hiden Administration by the folks I’ve seen, who were always staunch demons, is something I’ve never would have believed. The demons are potentially in a lot of trouble if these folks are any guide.
Johnny – I am not a “conservative”.
“Less than gruntled” might be an apt description at this stage of the evening’s proceedings.
Bull Shitten said the truest thing on channel 9 just now that he has ever said.
“Affluent people vote Greens because they don’t have a worry in the world”.
Unfortunately he chose a life of lies.
ABC not dealing well with the lack of correlation between opinion polls and the actual vote.
Never. Fucking. Learn.
“Trade ’em for Parramatta and outer suburban seats. Would be liberating to be free at last of the SFLs inclined to sing hymns to Gaia.”
Absolutely.
Greens have taken Griffith – Brisbane -from Labor.
Woo hoooooooooo…..Keneally on the nose.
Beer
To be more precise, Greens voting block are the smug inner city aresholes, over-represented by Anglos and usually working in the “caring” professions and or public service.
JC – that’s all very well, but we’re looking at three years at least of a labore/greenfilth clownshow goat rodeo.
Speaking of B Movies, bring back the Duke.
I’m not conservative, but like Catholicism, I find myself supporting them in the absence of those who should be.
At its basest, conservatism is defending that which is worth conserving, the most fundamental of which is the family. Fuck that, there’s green cronyism to be had, apparently.
Burning a tyre as a deodoriser, brilliant idea never would have thought of it. Going by the smell it’s going to have to be a tractor tyre at the minimum.
May be handy for Yaralumla when the expected next occupant is evicted.
Watching the coverage is like watching some mongrel dog squeeze one out in your front yard.
And these days they are
‘Working from home’ so even less affected by rising fuel costs.
Sure Rabz, but as most people here would say to me and others:
I don’t want to see any tears, this evening. 🙂
Colonel Crispin Berka says: May 21, 2022 at 7:34 pm
Ennnk. Wrong. I don’t know how I misread that, but the ABCess and the AEC both said the postal votes will NOT be counted tonight, zip, nada, zilch, zay-roa. My conclusion was wrong, the result is inconsistent. If pro-freedom party votes are flagging already it’s terrible news because the Leftist elephant hasn’t even entered the room yet.
. That’s what I believe and the Greens are an anti-family cancer in our body politic that needs to be excised
The loud mouthed blow in K. Keneally is dragging the chain against her Vietnamese opponent in Fowler NSW.
Preferences from the other Vietnamese on the ballot will be interesting.
Pundits calling it too close to call yet.
“I’m not conservative, but like Catholicism, I find myself supporting them in the absence of those who should be.

Well said Beery.
Not from me. Unresolved fury on the other hand …
It appears the wealthy have decided to switch off the power on the poor.
The inner city elites are the personification of educated idiots and cognitive dissonance. Once the coal and gas goes even bearded fucks like cannon brookes will have no power and will have to light the candles. It won’t be about price but about any power at all; and you can have all the fucking solar panels in the world on your roof. If the rest of society is in the dark all your roof top power will get you is a surge of ferals hopping over your fence towards your light like deranged moths.
In some pics, ABC’s Antony Green looks like Slymon Holmes a’Court.
The gliberals are gone. Trailing by six seats, according to the ALPBC.
It’s about the same time of the evening when I called 2019 for the gliberals.
Labor is no more the party of the wokka than the Libs are the party of the conservative. Neither represent their supposed “base”.
Labor has simply been more cunning in its marketing – witness Albo at a “working class” inner west RSL. Chortle. Average house price anyone?
But the most cunning are the Teals. Rich women bankrolled by a wealthy (by inheritance) spiv wanting to make even more money from snake oil green schemes. And supported by other rich people in the wealthiest suburbs. All at the expense of the poor.
Be prepared to have a Mathew Guy type as next Liberal leader.
Nostalgia abounding at Casa Pedro with tales of the shattered look on Red Kezzas face when Scomo held his victory speech last time around.
One for the ages.
Yep. When I pointed out to the greenfilth drone this afternoon that they wanted to destroy civilisation, he got even more flustered and incoherent.
My sister’s just texted me. She lives and votes in Reid. She and her hubby went to vote and took the dogs. Rosie, her Australian terrier, decided to do a wee on the Greens poster when they left. My sister was very happy!
Rabz, you’ve unfairly denigrated goats.
A warthog rodeo I could cop, although warthogs don’t represent dishonesty enough.
A hyena rodeo is appropriate, considering their cowardice, malevolence and tendency to laugh at their victims.
Cronkers and others.
The Eastern burbs of Sydney and funnily enough the wealthy inner eastern burbs of Melbourne like Toorak and Sth Yarra are littered with flats. I’m not sure the home owning wealthy in those burbs are voting for Slymons sorority. It could well be the flat dwellers.
“callisays:
May 21, 2022 at 7:55 pm”
You’ve nailed it.
Simon Birmingham says Libs will have to run candidates who are more inclusive than Katherine Deves for Warringah, and more in tune with what the people want. He says they must listen more to the electorates if they want to win seats such as this.
Just watched (Youtube) Neil Oliver discussing the use of George Orwell’s works as an owner’s manual, in response to recent UK Council elections. Depressingly apposite today.
Enter Monkey Pox.
PM Albo.
The staggeringly ugly incoherent turkey necked imbecile “owns” five Sydney properties.
All “earned” of course on his and his erstwhile live in dragon’s “modest” parliamentary salaries.
Hypocrisy, we much?
HOP Time. 😡
Every cloud …
“Simon Birmingham says Libs will have to run candidates who are more inclusive than Katherine Deves for Warringah, and more in tune with what the people want. He says they must listen more to the electorates if they want to win seats such as this.”
Unfuckingbelievable.
I am not looking at the broadcasts but simply relying on this haven — how is the invisible risible candidate in Reid going?
The difference in the LNP seat count between 7 and ABC is 20 seats.
WTF?
Looks like Freydenburg gone.
Best news so far is Kennely may lose to the Vietnamese lady.
Terry Butler in Griffiths not even beating the LNP. Bad news is going Green.
In shock news Craig Kelly will not be our next PM.
Whatever it takes!
Adieu, Liberals.
He’s the typical little turd you would’ve bullied at school.
Thanks, Cassie.
Beer influence, but I’m sure I’m not too far from what I feel.
I’m afraid Josh looks to be gone.
Simon Bermingham making a pitch for leadership.
A 5 litre box wine would be more befitting of the occasion. An out of date one too, if you’ve got it.
Just showed Jim Chalmers and pretty much every body behind him is Asian (out of 20 odd might be one Anglo face).
Over here the WEF Gliberal incumbent is currently in comfortable lead.
The Greens are getting double the vote shares of UAP and PHON put together.
I reckon what PHON and UAP should have done was promote more environmental policies and attract some green votes their way. Perhaps they could be ‘green capitalists’ or something.
Anton knee Green is the force, don’t make him remove the blocks.
After the next election, the Greens could be the main opposition Party.
I’m not sure the home owning wealthy in those burbs are voting for Slymons sorority. It could well be the flat dwellers.
Head prefect, the flats are owned by the wealthy bastards who put their kids in them when they’re sick of them at home.
In other news Turdball will return to parliament to save the LNP after albo becomes PM.
Country/Inner city divide widening.
Talking about European faces. I would never have believed it was possible. In Australia yes, because of seeing how important foreign students are to the uni sector.
I went to my kid’s graduation today at a pretty decent NYC university. You could count the Euro kids on one hand. Amazing for here too.
Cassie, it’s in their DNA. Pesutto said exactly the same thing — more green, more gals — when he lost Hawthorn in the state poll. They never learn and now it’s too late.
Rabz is right. I’m not conservative, but I am old-fashioned. In my day, the LGBTQI++ ” communidy” were known as perverts; we tolerated them as long as they shut up. Now we are required to admire them.
No way. I don’t feel the least inclination to be inclusive of perverts or the deranged. I think we should return to locking them up so they don’t make such nuisances of themselves.
Looks like Independents and Greens going to be the main winners tonight.
Sharma gone in Wankworth, Dim Wilson gone in Goldstein.
The only solution is to skew even more towards the mighty goals of collectivism, eh, gliberals?
“We lost because we weren’t strongly committed enough to year net zero”, said veteran gliberal powerbroker* Mikey “Kroges” Kroger.
*Here’s a free hint, you imbeciles – you’re not a “powerbroker” when you’re bereft of any power.
Don’t thank me, that statement of the bleeding obvious has been administered free of charge, you #@#*ing &%*#wits.
Looks like I picked a bad time to give up gin soaked raisins.
I actually want Labor to win government in their own right rather than rely on the scum Teals.
Wealth creating/wealth consuming divide widening.
Hence our debt – GDP ratio, which makes NZ look responsible.
An American pal told me the short version, LGBT =
Liquor, Guns, Bacon and Tits.
. Yep better an outright Labor win with no reliance on the GreenScum or the TealTrash
I’m depressed….drinking lots of vino. I’m going to move from Wentworth….thinking of Reid.
“Libs must attack Labor from the left” is the biggest surrender since the French made their tanks with 7 reverse gears.
I was hoping against hope the teals would flub but those upper class professionals are behaving exactly as expected.
Sigh.
At 8:18 on the ABC, Leigh Sales asked Plibersek a question and said “we” instead of “Labor”.
It’s true then, every cloud has a silver lining.
Be prepared to have a Mathew Guy type as next Liberal leader.
They’re inflating one right now.
It goes deeper than that. One section of our community is effectively bent on disenfranchising another.
They have done it by every means possible, disguising it with all manner of deceptions. They have even infiltrated and corrupted the party that supposedly represented us.
We don’t matter. We have been told baldly and unequivocally. Some of us just didn’t quite believe it.
I suspect we do now.
Cassie steady on — tomorrow will arrive soon enough you don’t want to greet it with a hangover. Yes come on over here to Reid, heaven alone knows what will happen here but you’d be welcomed with open arms.
Ask Zak Kirkup how that went.
They always do, REd Kezza did and so did ol’ scrotum face
Would they actually dare to put Rudd in Washington as the ambassador?I reckon he was angling for that role by canvassing for the Liars.
That would be hilarious.
Labor has won Reid – well at least it wasn’t the Greenfilth
Ch 9 on a run of 5 seats likely to go from Coalition to Labor.
VIC a disaster for Coalition. Hopefully that means they go the other way in November.
Palmer and ON getting very low numbers. Greens usually double their combined numbers.
Well said Calli.
I’m now sufficiently full of plonk to not give a damn which bunch of twisted sicko parasites are going to be in charge of buggering us. And I didn’t much care when stone cold sober.
So feel free to let me know the details.
Grrr Clennell just spruiking CPV.
Get stuffed Uniparty drone, I’ll take OPV if you are going to force us to vote.
FMD. Looking at this train wreck from cosy conservative country WA it is almost impossible to believe that there are so many people ignorant or stupid enough to vote for a “save the environment” Green ratbag when they live in a concrete jungle and only ever see a tree or patch of grass in a carefully manicured park the size of a pocket handkerchief.
Inner city entitled arseholes will bring this country to its knees.
It’s always helpful to know exactly where you stand.
If Australia has moved solidly towards socialism and wants an angry old Trot as PM, so be it.
Organise your life accordingly. Adjust your thinking and your reactions. Be aware that the majority of those around you are quite happy with stealing your hard earned and redistributing it to the secretly (and not so secretly) wealthy.
VIC a disaster for Coalition. Hopefully that means they go the other way in November.
Revenge on everyone involved in fucking them for two years!
Reid and Parramatta appear at this stage to be going to a Labor win.
Dude, are you freebasing on crack?
The only fucking hope is the senate but PHON, UAP and LDP are going to shit. I can’t believe people who vote for the filth. They literally deserve to be smashed to the ground forever.
Well said, Rabz, but please stop toning it down. Say what you really think. That’s why we’re here
I didn’t think uap and on would do well.
Would like to see Limbrick in.
Oh well.
Alas, in our country the dead can’t vote.
Yes; hunker down as you prepare to be the next Argentina.
Wot Pedro said!

We are talking about Victoria and Melbourne in particular? This is capital of dobbing on your neighbors and vigilantes making sure others don’t park in Loading Zones.
No people enjoy an involuntary reaming more than Victorians. They’re disappointed to the point of weeping if their reamers don’t draw blood.
Perth Trader:
Bastard.
You just reminded me of a blind date.
Civvie doc at Latchford Barracks asked me if I’d bring a friend of hers to a Regimental Dinner. OK, I’m game for anything. Pretty little thing, bit of a sparkler.
So the idiot running the show decides he’d upset the usual routine by mixing the seats up.
I spent the evening – some of it – trying to make suave conversation across a two meter wide table.
Disaster on stilts. But she was a good sport about it.
Lol, Evil coal plants gonski in 12 months tops.
Sharma, Falinski and Zimmerman likely gone.
I wonder how closer we are to the first big power blackout after this day?
Sound advice, indeed, calli.
