The simple fact is that it is not enough to “punish Labor” in the coming elections. The real challenge is to build a political alternative to Labor that will act for the majority, not slavishly serve the billionaire class.

    Aren’t the Greens running in a lot of seats? If there’s a hung parliament, Labor will have a hard time avoiding dealing with them.

      You would hope so, but then again Labor could do a Macron and just keep looking further to the right.

        There won’t be enough cookers in parliament to give them a deal. Which leaves them proposing a government of national unity with the Coalition. I’m sure Dutton’s demands for such would be entirely acceptable to them, given the reasonable fellow he is.

            Are you saying you’re not looking forward to the Coalition Coalition winning government?

              Yes. I am saying exactly that. The difference is that I wasn’t thinking about it before.

              I like before better.
