The Greens preferenced Daylight Savings Party ahead of a lot of other parties, including Labor, but it would be interesting to see a government buy a vote by introducing Daylight Savings, something WA emphatically voted against multiple times.

There's also the possibility they'll negotiate legislation with the Nationals is exchange for a mining tax. Because the WA Nationals well and truly hate the WA Liberals now and would probably jump at any opportunity to both stab them in the face and also see their mining tax become a reality, then they can turn around next election and say to their electorates 'See, even when Labor's in government, the Nationals get things done for regional West Aussies'.

The future looks to be an interesting time.

It'd be interesting to see a modern, progressive Labor govt working with the Nats and Greens to deliver consensus-based policies that account for the needs of both urban and regional citizens.

2017 sure is weird.

I don't think the WA Nationals will actually do something that will genuinely gently caress over the Liberals. The Federal Nationals have too much skin in the game for them to accept that course.

The Liberals will probably not go an do a preference deal with One Nation in QLD, and that will be the bigger story.

ALP should just put through a mining tax without their help then and stuff the Nats that way. Then with their newfound wealth spend like it's boom time and enjoy a 1000 year reich.

She also said she was proud of her party's efforts in spite of the result.

"For a 50-day campaign, we have done extremely well here," she said.

"I've got to thank all the supporters, we've had a fantastic effort.

"We didn't have the resources here in this state as what we have in the eastern states — I am so pleased with the vote that we have got."

So Hanson obviously hasn't learned from her 1998 campaign. BE READY

The ABC posted:

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has brushed off questions about the federal implications of the Liberal Party's catastrophic performance in the West Australian election, saying the result had been "expected for quite some time".

Mr Turnbull scoffed at the Opposition's argument West Australian voters were partly influenced by their distaste for the Federal Government.

"I think Colin [Barnett] summed it up very well when he said overwhelmingly it was the 'it's time' factor," he said.

...

The Nationals Leader Barnaby Joyce took aim at the preference agreement when it was first revealed — and this morning he said the deal "was a mistake".

He said One Nation had "a bit of a shocker" in the election, and the Liberal Party had over-estimated popular support for the anti-immigration party.

...

But Mr Turnbull said he had nothing to do with preference decisions, and would not be drawn on the party's preferences strategy for the next federal election.

"Preferences are the matter for a relevant division of the party — they're always entered into with the intention and objective of maximising the vote and representation of the Liberal Party" he said.

"The next federal election is more than two years away and all preference decisions will be considered by the party organisation closer to the election."

Can't even rule PHON out now Mr Speaker.

I would rather drink the garbage juice from an ibis's dirty beak than drink coopers again after what you just did. gently caress you, gently caress the Bible society, and gently caress the Liberals. Catch me next to a Sydney bin this week bargaining with an ibis for a drink out of his filthy mouth; I sure as poo poo won't be ordering any bloody coopers.

Two colleagues debating marriage equality over a couple of beers is not unusual. Throw in a Bible, TV camera and a parliamentary lawn, and things start getting a little, well, strange.

Federal Liberal MPs Tim Wilson and Andrew Hastie are the unlikely stars of a debate sponsored by the Bible Society of Australia and Coopers Brewery.
