History will not be kind to those aligned with this insane man child.

Personally, I favour a more radical progressive landscape, but it's up to the progressive political movement to present a digestible alternative to the broader electorate.

This election was billed as the one that would deliver a balance of power to the greens and independent progressives with Labor. So what happened?

Not sure I'm sold on the idea that voting for LNP or right-wing loonies will 'stick' it to Labor and get a more favourable outcome.

Threats to Canada, Mexico, Greenland, Panama, Gaza, Ukraine,…. Global trade wars… war on rights… war on legal norms… war on race… war on minorities… what claptrap is he spewing.

Would a CPRS a decade ago be helping right now?... just asking.

Serious partners can be found elsewhere and other serious countries are doing just that. These trumpists are neither reliable nor trustworthy. We already put cash down with little to show for it... smells like the extortionists they are.

I think it's pretty much a given now that everything is a lie to support his stupid assertions and dangerous insane fantasies. It's just little more than entertainment tv with disastrous real-world consequences.

Seems like the entire USA is now run literally by cheaters and petty crooks.

Seems like the electorate has given Labor the power to be bolder and less timid. The independents are being told to keep going. The greens I think are being told to be more realistic and less idealistic and to make Labor be bolder. The LNP just need to get out of the way.

If recent events hold, the next pope is going to be very left leaning.

Oh also a sausage in bread with tomato sauce at the polling booth (no voter goes hungry)

Oh and an independent electoral commission that sets boundaries fairly. Also, well established national standards for fair vote counting.

Also, a preference system means the votes flow to the nearest alternative if the voters primary choice fails to win and are not simply discarded.

Compulsory preferential voting helps... imo.

a LNP majority or even a minority government would be truely a worse result for the environment …IMO.

Australia welcomes good scientists, musicians, artists, medics, etc as would any country that's still great ...just sayin'.

Suggesting he's harvested all the messages for use later as leverage just in case... well because it would be silly of him not to do that.

They don't have original ideas. They think they are the born to rule party and that we won't notice all they are about is copying shitty populist junk from shitty (right wing) wingnuts. They are the sort that just outsource work to the wingnuts, rake in the perks while boozing in the bar.

We have our own crop of them here in Australia, salivating at the prospect of gratifying their twisted fantasies.

I forget... what's the reason we need a nuclear sub from the US again? Was it regional security or defending our trade routes with China?

Perhaps we should send Ukraine a battalion of huntsman spiders to deliver to the Russians by drone. Lightweight, non-lethal but terrifying none the less.

I think we should be employing Ukrainians to help us out.

Seems ridiculous, but it's now not inconceivable that the USA might forcibly coerce or physically invade Australia... they are now a credible threat imo.

There are ways governments change behaviours, both positive and negative. Prohibitive duties on monster trucks, efficiency standards, encourage farm/on-country glamping experiences, cheaper regional air travel, ...it's an endless list. It just requires an intelligent, motivated government.

(I'd argue as a government you could) Remove the option altogether, and encourage more worthy and profitable alternatives to emerge...

Sometimes, choice is just a commercial illusion created simply to make a buck.

Perhaps we should simply ban stupid vehicles whose sole purpose seems to be to inflate the ego and promote cargo cult consumption.
comment in response to

20 years ago a farmer/tradie got by with a small light ute/van. I can't see why monster trucks are needed now (mostly look like they are not used as trade vehicles anyway). Taxing over sized and over weight monsters (dumped here) would encourage lighter more economic vehicles.
