Canada, we’re with you! TRUMPISM IS REPUDIATED IN AUSTRALIA! #auspol

Farewell Antony Green - you will be missed Take a bow 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽 #endofanera #AusVotes25

TRUMPISM REJECTED IN AUSTRALIA Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has been re-elected as his Labor Party surged to victory and is projected to form a majority government. In a historic first, opposition leader Peter Dutton—often likened to Donald Trump—lost his own seat of Dickson.

Australia joins Canada in rejecting Trumpist cruelty, our faux Trump - like Poilievre - lost his seat (to a young woman) - except we did it even more emphatically. Proud of my country.

Landslide to Labor. Dutton loses seat. Libs at record low vote with no seats in most major cities…what a night for people ambitious for climate policy No more need to even ask what the libs will do or what NewsCorp will say Time to get on with genuine reform. Libs can catch up or fade further

This is what we are doing, what we are allowing. And it's getting worse.

“Our vote is our voice. If we vote without conviction, we have already lost. We must vote from a place of community and connection. That is how we save democracy.” Young people must fight for democracy www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/comment/topi... via @thesaturdaypaper.com.au

So tediously predictable that Dutton falls back to the same ‘hate media’ criticisms against the Guardian and ABC he’s rolled out previously - because apparently any reporting that interrogates the bullshit he’s sprouting is ‘hate’ and not, you know - the actual role of the media

Welcome to country - an act of kindness and inclusion.

That’s one hell of an exit line.

Nice to find you here @underwaterlance.bsky.social , I hope you stay safe in that country of yours.

The Put Dutton Last poster: brilliant. By the Electrical Trades Union (ETU), it should be shared nationwide. Superb. #auspol #AusVotes25 #DicksonVotes #DumpDutton
