They may well be, but the last thing this nation needs is another Labor-led government with all its eccentricities.

I just finished work on the election for the Shadow Government, the public service, the 'honest broker' in this 'election' - and I am happy to see LNP go down, but dread the future of this nation under the 'other' parties with their dreadful agendas.  As I always have said and say - just more and more of the same from The Tag Team - one lot gets in and punishes us with their ridiculous ideological stance, then the other gets in and does the same - and NOTHING gets any better for the average punter.

I am politically neutral, but not apolitical... capisce? I despise them all equally!

As long as we, as a nation, are forced to adhere to one ideology or the other - one bunch of ratbag psychopaths or the other - we will never prosper as a nation, and this - Poor Fellow, My Country - is my first concern, along with its countless ordinary people, including my grand-children and their children etc.... who are coming.... and I expect a far better future for them than this insanity.

As long as Rudd or Morrison is not in charge of the country, I do not really care which side of politics wins the election.

What about Albanese with his weird, half-baked, feminist and other ideologically directed ideas, enslaved to his masters and mistresses in the special interest groups?  Jesus - his former wife wore the pants, and now he has a simp as 'partner' half his age who is both trained in the New Ways and sucking up for the cash and perks, in traditional NON-FREE woman fashion.

Never Let Women Control Your Country And Society!!  That above is the best example you will ever see.

Labor leaders are as weak as piss since they are controlled by these special interest groups - lead by the feminists and their endless lies about how poor women, currently in the ascendancy, are 'oppressed' - and in a nation copy-cat murdered by all the other special interest groups, such as the poofs, the gender benders and any other group that comes along and screeches 'oppression' when most people have never even seen them let along 'oppressed' them, and, frankly, don't give a rat's and never did while they themselves are desperately trying to prosper in a country and society gone mad and totally out of their control.

No wonder the People grab for any alternative - without clearly considering all the EQUAL evils that will come along the moment they give these arseholes 'power' to dictate their lives - something - BTW - that political election does NOT confer on anyone!

We need an entirely new force in this nation to save if from itself, and then to show the world what a really good government is....not ANY these arseholes.

Albanese is yet to piss me off in things that I consider important. The funding cuts to regional and community programs did raise my attention somewhat. But, I will have to find out what he is talking about before I start getting concerned.

We have a third bridge about to be built. And we have a road network costing over $1 billion dollars (partly funded by the Federal Government) still to be worked on. I would say that the funding to complete the road network will still go ahead. But, could there be any chance that the new government would say no to the project?

Probably not - that is in the public service domain.... Shadow Government.  You are looking at very real but very local issues.... MY issues are in the greater governance of the People, for the People, but not By The People.

A few small fish thrown your way is a very local issue - it is the over-arching issues that need to be fully and properly addressed, such as how much influence should special interest groups of ANY kind have?

Look around you!  Every special interest group other than the Common People have a foot in the pharken door... and that is not a Party issue in any way - it is a part of life as we know it, and which must be changed.

List your special interest groups ... then we can talk.... why should ANY of them have any special say in anything while the rest eat cake?  PHARK 'EM!

One very tired, corrupt government is gone and that is good!

Nice gesture by Scummo to let Albanese attend the Quad meeting in Tokyo.

The best part is going to be the corruption trials, because now all the evidence will come out. Anyone want to take a punt on how many prosecutions there will be? I'll start it off . . . zero.

You do understand that this result has thinned out the ranks of the 'moderate' Liberals and has set up the more 'right wing' lot to take over? Dutton will most likely be the next Liberal leader and should the Albanese government look like going soft on issues like China, illegal immigrants or national security in general the Liberals will be ready to pounce. 

In any case, what are the chances of Albanese serving a full term as PM?

You are correct.  The Liberals will go hard right and bury themselves.  Albo needs to ignore all the bullshit you mentioned.  Hopefully it's a minority government the greens can control to force them to be better

Hi brave sir Crook,
So now we have a minority Labor Govt.

Who will support Albo to prevent a vote of no confidence in the lower house?
I suppose the Greens will?

The Liberals have the majority in the Senate and Labor is a Minority Government - it is a disaster for Australia as the Loonie Lefties roll out all their crazy crap.

There will soon be a Double Dissolution of Parliament to take it back to the people.

Never has the Labor Party been so crazy as they are now and the Greens are total Whackadoodles anyway.

This is a disaster for Australia and we will slam into a Depression and people will know its because of Labor/Greens.

What a disaster!

And so is Australia after the election result.

Labor probably won power but it would be better if the Greens hold the balance and force them to be moral, or as you put it, looney.

We will have a depression if we don't kill trans kids? How does that work?

I think the Liberals have done a lot of damage, but we can recover, with sane government.  Greens would be better but Labor are doing good right away, like Uluru, like freeing the Bilalolea (sp?) family.

The libs got their arses handed to them because they've gone to far to the right. If it weren't for that the teals wouldn't have had anywhere near as much success. Continuing down this road will see them lose even more support. Dutton is the last person they should put in as leader but I suspect they won't allow themselves to admit it.

The Liberals thinned out the ranks of the moderate Liberals.

This is on them.

They moved so far right and praised incompetence and marketing over substance, intelligence and leadership that the majority of the country said enough is enough.

Blame everyone else and keep defending your kin, but at this point the only person who you have a chance of convincing any of what you're spewing is true, is yourself.

What makes you think I am a Liberal voter, or that I am defending anybody? Unlike the more fanatically partisan types like yourself I can see the issues objectively and from all sides, whereas you and your ilk have the typical 'progressive' intolerance for any view that does not follow your narrow groupthink.   ::)

The Libs still did it to themselves.

You can try to shift blame in an effort of "calling it how it is" but you've been long trampled by your high horse.

I find it interesting, that even from the Liberal and National party members that, despite their loss, the narrative is how bad Labor did.

I'm not at all surprised, the age of whiney little bitches has begun, but you'd think we'd at least get 24 hours off, not instantly shift gears.
