That is bad but it is better to have overstayers than illegal entrants because with the former you at least know who they are.

With illegal immigrants, you don't know where they are.

The Coalition won't lift a finger to stop this, because the National Party's mates love having a big pool of illegal immigrants who can be exploited: work for $50 a week, pay money under the table, immigration raid is coming, run and hide.

Australians would like to do the work (if they can find a way through the onerous red tape), but Australians know their workplace rights so the corrupt farmers won't employ them.

To win seats, Labor needs Greens preferences and may well need that party’s support to form a government. Does anyone really think Albanese would deny a moratorium on all new fossil fuel projects if that was the price of the Lodge? And what about the rest of the Greens’ agenda: coal exports stopped by 2030 and all other fossil fuel exports by 2040; a wealth tax; death duties; higher capital gains taxes; no offshore processing of boatpeople; and cuts to military spending?

Albanese will furiously deny this pre-election but would he be any different from Joe Biden, who campaigned as a centrist but has governed as the most left-wing US president; or Kevin Rudd, who promised to turn back boats but started them up again, and whose claimed fiscal conservatism produced a quarter trillion dollars in cumulative deficits?

I reckon Labor will win comfortably without any need to negotiate with the Greens as far as forming Government is concerned.

The Senate will still be a conglomeration of weirdos though.  Grin

How is this hypothetical situation any different to the Liberals being dependent on the National Party to form government?

Besides, on current polling, a Labor minority government will not be likely. To form a minority government, Labor needs to gain at least four and no more than six seats (assuming Labor wins the new notional Labor seat of Hawke). The polls are suggesting the swing to Labor will be significantly larger than that.

Er... the LNP is a DECLARED coalition, largly based on geographic demarcation.

The Labor Green partnership isn't. And even Old Cloth Cap Albo knows that going into coalition with the Greens would mean an instant loss of most of what remains of his working class base.

Day Three:-  Give Indigenous Voice in Parliament with unelected by the people generally persons sitting and holding voting power there, and being paid handsomely for agitating daily and blocking anything they don't like.  Sets Apartheid in place as a permanent fixture, and starts riots in the streets by Abos demanding more and more and Whites retaliating against violence and intimidation.  Civil War imminent on that front...

How do you justify putting someone into parliament when the majority of voters where they live are not of their kind and don't have the same axes to grind, and already have voted for someone else?  Are you just going to nullify their votes and tell them the election was stolen because they didn't vote in an Abo?  Or tell them that their vote is worth half of what someone else's vote, in another area or state, is?

If Abos want a voice, they are free as anyone to stand for election and state their case.... let the people decide... not give in to their Bolshevik demand for power or else.

The most common complaint about Labor is that if they would get rid of this special interest group garbage, including the women, women, women sh1t, and went back to their core interest of properly looking after the interests of all workers equally and of managing the country for all equally, they would never lose an election.

Idiots simply will not listen, regardless of how many unlosable elections they lose time after time.

Still waiting on my answer from Albo about the Wage Gap where women are currently paid 12% on average more than men per hour worked... boo, hoo, more men are tradies and such and cop the big dollars for sweating it out in the hot sun all day and the ice in winter... they cop more for working longer hours than women do... boo, hoo....  men have been doing top surgeon's jobs for far longer and are more experienced and they are paid more.... boo, hoo .....

Does anyone boo, hoo for all the young men stuck in part-time casual at Macca's and unable to get into a course of their choosing because it is considered there are too many men in that profession, or who have to perform back-flips to get a job in the public service etc, and who KNOW that with the well over 50% divorce rate, well over 80% of 'marital relationships' broken up by the woman, and given the current trend to unmarried children, they will lose their family massively over 50% of the time??

FFS, Albo - get rid of the dead weight..... get with the real world for a change.  Nobody wants the other lot - but nobody wants your lot, either - nobody real, that is.

Had a lecco here today - he loved working in the air conditioning... had another job to do on a roof... that could wait...

Really?  Which 'women's rights' are you discussing here
(if one could be so bold as to ask and expect a responsible answer)?


What Rights do women and a few other groups not possess here?  You may put your foot in it any time you are ready......
*cue squid's ink*


I hear the above about Labor all the time..... funny that.....

Not prepared to list these special 'rights' that women should have then?

White flag accepted.... you know there are none.

It's not my complaints you should be worried about - it's theirs and the way they shift the goal posts every time some idiot gives in to them.

In Woglandia, of course, if a woman gets uppity they just cut her throat.... here we try reason and facts - something alien to any ideologue.  Reason and facts means nothing to a rabid narcissistic lunatic...

The “Voices” movement is behaving more like a new political party, funded largely by the Climate 200 organisation, and specifically targeting Coalition seats rather than Labor’s.

Their focus on delivering stronger emissions-reduction policies is farcical given they are seeking to defeat some of the most moderate, pro-climate action politicians in the Coalition camp.

Their real strategy is to render the Coalition incapable of forming a majority, then looking to implement their agenda in concert with a Labor-Greens government. The Voices candidates can perhaps best be described as Greens without a visceral hatred of capitalism and country. They are the feral left, but with Fendi.

If the trend to independents continues, we could see the minor-party intransigence of the Senate infect the House of Representatives. The frustrating characteristics of the house of review could render the house of government almost unworkable – perhaps 2010 was our test drive.

Climate 200 is the political fund established by Simon Holmes a Court, the son of Australia’s first billionaire, Robert Holmes a Court, of Bell Resources fame. Paradoxically, the inherited wealth the son has marshalled to support his climate activism was derived in large part from his father’s oil and gas investments.
