Until recently, we were. And then post-covid fatigue hit hard, the best PM we've had in a generation resigned after the right wing hate got to her, and we had nobody with an ounce of charisma to replace her. Opposition got in, and now we're pathetically right wing.
I mean, usually even our conservatives are pretty moderate when compared to US Republicans, but our current government is pretty bad. They frame it as being about free speech rather than agreeing with her, but... You know...
It's made worse by us having a unicameral parliament, no written constitution and a parliamentary system, so whichever group has a majority can do almost anything. Kinda the opposite problem of the US obstructionism. 1/
On the plus side, at least I have no concerns about whether there will BE elections again in 2026, and I am still hoping they'll be a single term government. 2/2
