MODERATORS
 

This is it, this "balanced reporting" and uninformed electorate is going to lead to Potato Head getting in.

We had a single election cycle of Labor and they didn't manage to completely fix our economy and all the Liberal fuckery of the previous 2 cycles, so we better give the liberals another chance to fuck us harder.

Every time I run into a Liberal voter I ask the same question "What one thing is most illustrative of them being strong on the economy?"

I have never been given a good answer.

PS not a huge Labor fan either but I know which side of the Overton window I prefer to be pushing on.

ABC 2 years ago:

If the Liberals fail to tackle the issue and listen to women about why they've been abandoning the party, Reynolds said, it will be statistically impossible to win majority government again.

And fourthly, in Australia, because of its particularly brutal gender politics, quotas have to be part of the answer.
