The simple fact is that it is not enough to “punish Labor” in the coming elections. The real challenge is to build a political alternative to Labor that will act for the majority, not slavishly serve the billionaire class.

Aren’t the Greens running in a lot of seats? If there’s a hung parliament, Labor will have a hard time avoiding dealing with them.

You would hope so, but then again Labor could do a Macron and just keep looking further to the right.

There won’t be enough cookers in parliament to give them a deal. Which leaves them proposing a government of national unity with the Coalition. I’m sure Dutton’s demands for such would be entirely acceptable to them, given the reasonable fellow he is.

For the love of fuck: put a /s on your post.

Are you saying you're not looking forward to the Coalition Coalition winning government?

[–] prex@aussie.zone 5 points 1 month ago

Yes. I am saying exactly that. The difference is that I wasn't thinking about it before.

I like before better.
