Heartbreaking. Zoe an excellent MP in a tough seat.

Wilson is cut from Sophie Mirabella cloth. Self-absorbed wankmuffin whose whole existence is because he hates Labor. He’s not there to solve problems, he’s there to have power for power’s sake.

Ebb and flow will happen. Community Independents will thrive if they can play the long game. The stitch up on campaign funding between the major parties is the most immediate threat for ongoing growth. Throw in truth in advertising/campaigning legislation too.

No!

Timmy campaigned on:
- low inflation (labor has already fixed it)
- safer communities (mostly state controlled)
- affordable housing (Baysiders don't want affordable houses, they want their investment to grow)

I think you're right, the change from LNP had a bigger push. Maybe next time it will flip

Of all the people I'd like to see never ever come back to parliament, Wilson's v high on the list. His malfeasance is extraordinary. Even his own party mate, Speaker Tony Smith was appalled by Tim using publicly funded committees to data harvest and branch stack

As an aside, I'm surprised they are continuing with piecemeal updates. Count them all, do the check, then report.

The AEC suburb (in person only?) stats paint a big picture. Brighton is still heavy LNP. As a Sandy resident I was pleased to see a strong in person Zoe vote.

We lived in North Sydney & volunteered for Kylea Tink.
It was sad that circumstances aligned to prevent Kylea defending her seat. My wife & her pals feel she would have won Bradfield.
I think Fletcher resigning and the libs picking a woman in a winnable seat was the spanner in the works.

The non-voting trad wives of the Plymouth Brethren cult must be so proud

Liberals have less seats to defend, therefore can concentrate resources on targeted seats. Spending in Goldstein far outweighed the independents.

And Tim Wilson a putrid, self serving professional politician offering the community absolutely nothing.

Hopefully he now gets leader of the opposition and she ousts him when he runs for pm
