John Setka is an Australian trade unionist. He is secretary of the Victorian-Tasmanian division of the Construction, Forestry, Maritime, and Energy Union, which also administers the South Australian division under a temporary arrangement. He is a controversial figure in the Australian trade union movement.

Li Qiang is a Chinese politician. He became the 8th premier of the People's Republic of China in March 2023, having been elevated to the second-ranking member on the Chinese Communist Party Central Committee Politburo Standing Committee in October 2022

Anthony Norman Albanese is an Australian politician serving as the 31st and current prime minister of Australia since 2022. He has been leader of the Australian Labor Party since 2019 and the member of parliament for the division of Grayndler since 1996.

Or ... "One Term Tony" as some prefer to call him.

That's what happens when Labor governs in our best interest, closing corporate tax loopholes and ensuring a return from our resources taken from the ground.

The lobby groups are doing their best to destroy Labor because they want the Libs back in to undo the changes, them over us.

They're painting Labor as being a terrible government and for the masses who don't spend the time to check their actual record, it's easy to just accept it, which the polls reflect.

All of those points are hugely popular AND positive, not just popularity nonsense to win votes, but the media narrative today is the successful interception of a boat with Chinese nationals on it heading to Australia.  Of course, it would not be reported under a Liberal government or if it got out it would show they're being strong on the borders etc, but because it's Labor, it's being painted as a sign of them being weak on border control, even through it's the exact same thing.

Those controlling the narrative had an interest in returning the Libs to power because the Libs govern for them, not us.  At least while they keep the donations and the jobs for the boys coming, which they do.

That's a good point. The majority of our issues are from the previous government.
Very rarely are they not.

Indeed that's why we booted scomo and LNP.

We wanted change, we instead got Abo and his referendum followed by not much else other than a taxpayer funded NRL team in PNG.

I can see a Green - Labor government a better answer than Dutton LNP.

But I'd want a Green PM. The Labor and libs need to understand they are no longer relevant to the Australian people.

That's not true, they've actually done a lot that will bring in structural changes that will go towards resolving many of the issues that need fixing, it's just the narrative is ignoring those and only focusing on the areas they should have done more in.

If I was to pretend to see into the future I would first be very surprised if any of " Albo structure change" amount to anything and , secondly less surprised when "if" they occur they are watered down so much that they are completely irrelevant.

He unfortunately suffered delusion many when given great power suffered.

He believed the majority of Australians would follow him on the voice referendum.

That didn't.

He believed the majority of Australians would welcome record immigration.

That absolutely did not.

I'm not accusing him of being lazy. At other points in this country history such events could have been successful and deeply defining for our future..

I'm accusing him of being out of touch. When people are struggling to find a roof under which to live let alone afford electrical ( thanks to state Labor for privatization of that) plus food and cost of living.

Albos big ticket items just aren't what the country needed or voted him in to achieve.

He simply doesn't understand.

His virtual daily updates on the NRL ( note his team the rabbit are going very poorly) shows this.

The NRL isn't the most popular sport in Australia, not even close but following Scomoo , Alboo continues to think it will a dear him to the Australian public.

His completely out of touch with Australia.

He may have grand intentions but his failure in one term of government cannot be allowed be repeated.

Duddo if elected should take heed. If you cannot fix the real pressing issues facing Australia in three years don't move to many books into your new office. You to will be voted out in one term.

Hard to argue against that.

It's funny how a number of what could be seen as "small issues" sometimes build up over the election cycle that add up to the government being flung out.

A few examples off the top of my head:

The year wasted on the shockingly misread "Voice" folly.
The awful incompetence of "Blackout" Bowen.
The dreadfully awful minister Linda Burney.
The woefully inadequate $300 power bill rebate desperation act.
Bill Shorten's $600,000 speech writer.
The shockingly incompetent minister Andrew Giles.
The shockingly incompetent minister Clare O'Neil.
The waffling dunderhead treasurer Jim Chalmers.
The dreadfully bad minister Bill Shorten.

At the very least, I reckon Labor will lose majority government and I think there is a strong possibility that Labor will be thrown out of office completely.


Much like Malcolm Turnbull, Albo is an arrogant self-serving fizzer.
