We’ve done it, we got rid of another soulless right wing politician!

Peter Dutton first made his party lose this election and now also lost his own seat much like Pierre Pullover

We’ve still got a government that green-lit new coal power plants in it’s last term, screwed over the Aboriginal community with a poorly run referendum, and still doesn’t give a shit about climate change, but baby steps hey.

    Omg I posted this in the wrong thread! This was in reference to Canada’s election.

    I guess most of that I said can still be salvaged 😂

      There was a definite trump effect, just not as bigly as it was in Canada.

      The conservative leader did nominate a a grossly unqualified “efficiency” minister who claimed she would “make Australia great again”.
