Wow.

These people are awful. Subjugate women and worse.

Reported up in the Blue Mountains in the seat of Macquarie too

Are this Christian Sect supporting Dutton and the LNP because, if he wins, they won’t have to bother voting again?

cabmerman.bsky.social•46 days ago

As with most of the modern malaise, John Howard was the first leader to embrace this sect.

I spent a bit of time on a pre poll booth in gilmore last week and saw the antics of the Brethren first hand. The line they used was make australia smile again. Didn't think much of it at the time until I read this article. The LNP seem to align with some very dodgy people.

record scratch* *freeze frame* Yep, that's me. You're probably wondering how I got here.

What's that from?

Is it a real image of her with dodgy people in the background though? (Cookers?)

big-tony.bsky.social•45 days ago

Hmm, not the first time far right Nazis and extreme right wing religious nuts have joined forces.

nelle.bsky.social•46 days ago

Are they also responsible for the roadside signs with no authorisation that say "make Australia Happy Put Labor Last"

I saw one and thought it was the work of a local amateur with too much spare cash, but now I see they're all over the country.

jessielilley.bsky.social•46 days ago

Yep

mick-minion.bsky.social•46 days ago

They are handing out everywhere. Whitlam is flooded by bus loads from Sutherland Shire

madnana.bsky.social•46 days ago

So she’s really just a lying,entitled nut job or LNP protege

mandyst.bsky.social•46 days ago

Forrest electorate WA, same. Many bussed in from afar yesterday. They are very worried about the excellent Independent candidate.

beneltham.bsky.social•46 days ago

This whole campaign has been something of a revelation

aimeeh.bsky.social•46 days ago

This election has delivered some of the worst political campaigns Ive ever seen. And surprisingly its not coming from fed labor.

motithewonderdog.bsky.social•46 days ago

why don't you pass the time by playing a little solitaire Peter?

grumpenprol.bsky.social•46 days ago

When you try to model your campaign on Trump, it was always going to get crazy.

jewes.bsky.social•46 days ago

It will be disappointing if she wins. Her attitude has been challenging to watch and she hasn’t even won her seat yet. I find it amusing the reference to being related to Rupert Hamer as it is totally irrelevant

laurenzoe.bsky.social•45 days ago

At prepolls in this electorate, scary amount of blue HTV only; amongst the older, well to do middle age and most alarmingly young voters (the messaging from their team being get a young face in parliament). Gross attack ad slogans being parroted back. And AH hasn't shown up to any cmty forums.

jessielilley.bsky.social•45 days ago

Sadly there’s a fair chance she’ll get in. Which is saying something given how appalling her campaign has been.

laurenzoe.bsky.social•45 days ago

I have that feeling. I hope I'm wrong. The campaign and spend has been gross (not from the sitting member).

ianausbrit.bsky.social•46 days ago

Surely by now everyone realizes that LNP represent the far right extremes in our society, they always deny it but these are without doubt their new base. Nazis, Christian fascists & cult members, MAGAts, racists & conspiracy theorists, these are who they became in order to go further right.

cameronphilips.bsky.social•42 days ago

Worse still, they don’t represent anyone or anything. They’re simply a collection of con-men in search of their next scam. They’re the Snake Oil party.

ianausbrit.bsky.social•42 days ago

I agree, in my opinion they are the most corrupt bunch of politicians in Australian modern history. And now they have an even more corrupt idol to copy overseas. The Liberal National party , if elected will go to new levels of corruption i'm sure.

Blessed be the fruit

agpat.bsky.social•46 days ago

Yep, she was all about the optics, never about the real intentions. Keeping the working poor in their place.

shartymcscrote.bsky.social•46 days ago

About sums it up I think.
