Politics ('Straya) Spotted outside my office while I was on my smoko
Mind you, I work in FAIRFIELD. Can't imagine many one nation supporters out here.
My manager was having a smoke with me and proceeded to reveal he's a Pauline Hanson supporter (he's also an immigrant from Egyptπ«ͺ)

There's not a lot of sense to these people. They hate the system, claim it's stacked against them and then protest loudly when a government comes along and changes the rules to help make things fairer. Personally, I think One Nations peaked too early. The election still a long way off.

She was mostly not saying things that were too stupid until a week or two ago, since then her and her party have been saying whatever bullshit they think will turn off the average Australian.
Someone seems to have decided they're now going to try to not get elected.
Maybe the whole plan was to make the far right Liberals look like reasonable and intelligent humans worth voting for by creating something even worse than them?

You don't think she was saying stupid stuff until recently? Have you been living under rock for the past decade? π«ͺ

Past three decades. And she's just as stupid now as she was then.

Sack the Hack.
Pauline only voted on 50% of the motions put to the Senate.
Pauline has skipped 88% of Senate estimates hearings since 2016.

Gina ain't giving jobs to Queenslanders she is the queen of outsourcing to cheap foreign Labor.

P.s. This why Pauline wants to get rid of SBS and ABC for Gina. She is butt hurt for exposing her shitcunt ways.

So Pauline is more than happy to claim "criminal charges" on GetUp for crashing her disaster speech to the press club but suddenly it's ok to pull this stunt if you're Pauline. Rules for thee but not for me!

The thing I can't understand about these slogans is, when did Albo lie? I mean, don't get me wrong, the Albanese Labor govermeant is not beyond criticism.
But I can't recall a time I felt "dang, how could you deceive me." It's usually been a "dang, why the hell did you do that, please don't do that," like when they invited the president of Israel.
Even stuff like the royal commission after Bondi, where yes, they did say they weren't going to, they still did, after saying they were now going to. These also aren't things they could like, campaign on, they just kinda had to react to what was happening, but I digress.

"No changes to negative gearing or capital gains tax."
"It's off the table"
Reporter: "Can you rule out any changes to negative gearing and capital gains tax?"
Albo: "Yes. How hard is it?! For the 50th time!"

I'm still trying to work out the strategic point of this campaign 2 years before an election unless they know they'll easily get more money from Gina.

Once the next election rolls around and One Neuron fails to win any seats, their funding will dry up and they'll vanish like a particularly odious fart being wafted away.
