Labor will likely win this election, albeit via governing as a minority government (again). I just don't see the Coalition winning enough seats to kick out Labor, unfortunately. I do think Labor will lose a lot of seats and the Coalition will pick up many, but not enough to win this election, which is a shame because Labor under Albanese have been absolutely atrocious, weak and incompetent.

I’m not so sure.

The few green voter’s I know are/ where absolutely disgusted by the greens support of Hamas and their plan to import all Palestinians to Australia. I believe they will struggle to keep the current support they had last election.
The Teals are now sandbagged against being removed. They seem too do and say nothing and haven’t offended anyone.
They may well gain at the greens lost.
The LNP are no chance of forming government.
Duddo has been a dud on the husking trial.

I note he has actually achieved far more than was expected in rising the tarnished Lnp brand since Scomo and co all but ruined it.
Remember every vote gives the party the best part $30 of taxpayer money in electoral funding.
Duddo has attracted primary voters and therefore $$$.
The Lnp is desperate for $$$.

So basically nothing will change.

Duddo shouldn’t be subject to criticism. His achieved far better than he should have primarily because Albo is the Prime Minister ( after Scomo) Australia has had.

Dutton should not have shown weakness in backing down over the public servants 'working' from home, and should have stuck to his guns. If you don't stand for something you will fall for anything, and every single voter in this country - regardless of their state of self-delusion at any given time - knows fully what the crying issues are for the country.

Those who support Mass Immigration, Aboriginal Supremacism, Sillygenderism, Identity Politics, Ultra-feminism, Minority Preference, Kow-Towing to the Global Economy (both 'sides' do), Stupid Super approach, Divine Right of Government to Impose at whim on chosen groups, the 'right' to demand and get governments to impose guilt by accusation like some Stalinist regime, and all the other nonsenses created by the social science-based Neo-Fascism benignly labeled 'Neo-Feudalism' - all KNOW these are the very issues on which THEY will vote YES regardless of any actual thinking and even hard evidence on those issues...

With some of those 'issues' - which should never even be on the table in a true democracy of equals - they will vote and vote YES until their balls are being cut off by their Feminist Landlords bent on their payback ancient tribal warfare, while the Imports stand by and laugh and wait for their opportunity to Quash the Keffir and take over the joint in the name of Sumgod who will stomp and stone the 'feminists' back into their rightful place ... and run the joint their way without the White Man's rules.

Primitive societies only have rules to control behaviour of women and the 'weak' and such, support and maintain the hegemony of the 'powerful' in EVERY aspect of life, and to protect the dedication to ancient blood feuding by small tribal/family groups. That is why they are called Primitive!!

We had enough of those here already without bringing in more and more and more... and that's just one lot.... you don't expect the Chindians to understand or accept the idea of paying taxes and engaging people on proper regulated working terms, do you? their 'cultures' are built on the extreme exploitation of the many by the few.

How much d'ya reckon my Four Chinese Little Beavers who put my solar system up - 7.7kW - in two hours for $3,000 cost to me - were paid for their job? Huh

Well - some people are sticking to the real issues for today instead of the sledging that is near all of politics here:-

Henry Pike MP

"In just two weeks, we've seen Labor's true agenda exposed:

They want to remake Australia in their image, not yours.

Their contentious Human Rights Act is the clearest example.

It isn't about 'protecting rights', as they'll say – it's a TROJAN HORSE for activists to bypass democracy and push their radical agenda.

But that's not all.

Right here in our community, 3,500 Council-owned properties – including Wellington Point reserve, Cleveland Point reserve, and the Redlands Performing Arts Centre – are under Native Title claims.

And what did Labor do?

Labor ABOLISHED the Native Title Respondent Funding Scheme, leaving our community defenceless against Native Title claims, and facing potentially millions in costs.

Meanwhile, families are struggling with:

❌ Record-high grocery prices

❌ Crippling mortgage payments

❌ Energy bills that keep rising

❌ Housing that's increasingly unaffordable

Rather than solving these REAL problems, Labor focuses on appeasing their activist friends, who keep pushing for radical agendas NO ONE is asking for."

* Lawfare at its very finest!!! Fund one side.... starve the other... when it comes to Albo's Voice By Stealth - I TOLD YOU SO!

If you, as a people, do not rid yourselves of these 'leftist' Neo-Fascists - I cannot help you in your decline into civil war.

Vote NO again and again - until it sinks in!

It was a terrible thing that DuttonCorp was the only real alternative - as they are - but then he had to put his foot in it over something as silly and minority as 'public servants 'working' from home forever' - as if that has morphed into some 'right' to suit the sheilas again... as in WTF? He should have shut up until the election was in the bag, then set out fixing this stupidity and preferential treatment.

This is a minor issue simply fixed - order them back to work once in office - give them notice to set their affairs at home in order again - then back to the grindstone! There are massive issues currently sinking this country and either DuttonGroup is strangely silent or the media is blacking them out.

Why aren't nurses and firepersons working from home, dare one ask? What about coppers? FFS - this is just another added bonus perk of the job that is outdated now - money saved in travel, no need for good clothing, time to do all those things at home you want to do that most have to wait for retirement to do.... FFS!!!

Talk about carrying on a class war to divide the country more and more.... next the people who can't work from home will be wanting a pay rise to compensate..... FFS!!!

These numbers are ALWAYS subject to slow shifts as election dates draw closer.
But it's unusual to see such a shift in FAVOUR of the incumbent government

At WORST, labor would do WELL as a high functioning minority government , as the ALP has done PREVIOUSLY

The Gillard Government passed record amounts of legislation into LAW through negotiations with the cross bench

We are in managed decline

If you cut yourself off from the media and weren't aware if it had been Gillard or Abbott or turnbull or Rudd or albo or scomo in charge for the last 20 years, you would have no way of differentiating

The days of prosperity are over.

We import millions of migrants to do BS jobs just to keep the economy growing.

We rack up debt. Expand the public service. Get fat
Get lazy. Contribute as little as possible.and squabble over the scraps.

This Will continue to snowball Cry

What a heartbreakingly dim view you hold your fellow Australians in. I see nothing like that when i look around.

What i see is a vibrant society full of interesting people going about their lives. I see tremendous inequality however but i am heartened by the efforts i see to address the issue.

I see the recognition of all of the people that make up a community becoming championed by today's young people. I see a kinder, more encouraging world unfold. And that, more than suffering, brings out excellence.

It's great shame you see this a weakness. No surprises though, you can tell from this post of yours alone you only value the outlier. You hold most people in contempt. Chodes, living lives of pure garbage. You're a tragic elitist who chooses to spend his waking hours virtue signalling on an anonymous message board.

Absolutely nobody envies you.

God i hope the ALP get their PR right this time.

Not holding my breathe though.

Haven't seen a single thing yet about the implementation of the 'Future Made In Australia' initiative.

Time to get cooking guys.
