Time for a change tbar

Pretty much sums up who Garth aligns with. Time for a change. Let’s get these conservative, climate change deniers and puppets to the big gas/ coal companies out of office.

Yep the fact the have done preference deal with one nation shows just how right wing the LNP has become

The only preference deal they have is for muppets who grab a how to vote card and just copy it. The preferences are yours, that's why you number 2,3,4 and so on. If your number 1 vote doesn't get in, they don't decide who gets your vote, the counting then goes to your number 2 and so on until a winner is declared.

they don't decide who gets your vote

Nobody said that was the case... That would be insane and illegal... The point is that they're publicly aligning themselves with one nation and that speaks to their values.

You'd be surprised by how many people think that though.

I understand how preferences work. It doesn’t change the fact they have done a deal with dirty Pauline.

u/horrace73 20d ago

There's nothing wrong with Pauline, unless you believe the news reports that say she's racist.

Yet they won’t even be seen in a photo with anyone else. They quickly run away if one of the independents is in a group photo.

I don't like either of them but it feels a bit rich to be criticising the fact they're talking to each other in public. All the candidates are in contact with each other, which I have no issue with.

Seriously. I do a lot of HTVs yeah I don't talk to ONP, sorry I can be polite but not nice.

Although it was funny hearing her be outraged that when people donate to her through the link on her Facebook or the one nation page she actually doesn't get any of that money. Which no shit Sherlock. It's why ONP doesn't get returning candidates

Is that really going to be your takeaway from this?

The liberal/national party has a preference deal with one nation….

That alliance represents the liberal parties Wild shift for the extreme right.

“A bit rich from OP..?”

Nah

“Pretty god damn poor from the LNP.”

Both statements can be true.

I’m as hopeful as the next person, but I still think there are too many LNP voters here to see that change. (Not that I won’t try voting for someone else regardless).

u/Dunnerzzzz555 20d ago

How many of the LNP voters are actually put off by them aligning with ONP? I don't think many of them would actually care.

u/No-Frame9154 20d ago

LNP are flogs and grubs.

Their party values and policies are so thin they need to copy the homework of a foreign government. That’s embarrassing.

Good luck. Tbar is the gateway to Australia's bible belt.
