lol after telling the media that he might not be the father, Joyce is now telling everyone that the baby's father isn't anyone's business.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
A bad deputy prime minister is a lot like a bad father in that they're the same.

So this is weird:

https://twitter.com/abchobart/status/970463791287881728

and the linked article begins:

quote:

Saturday's Tasmanian election is a historic victory for Premier Will Hodgman.

In a traditional Labor state, Mr Hodgman becomes only the second Liberal Premier to win back-to-back majority governments.

The Liberal Party almost matched its 2014 result, polling above 50 per cent for the second election in a row.

Mr Hodgman's personal percentage vote in Franklin is also the third highest in modern times, and in vote terms will pass Doug Lowe's 1979 record.

While Labor has recovered from its 2014 drubbing, Labor's vote share of just under 33 per cent is its third worst result since the Second World War.

Green support at ten per cent is below its previous low, recorded in 1998, and the party may yet be reduced to the single Denison seat it won in 1998.

Note the careful "almost" modifier in the second sentence. We then get on to details of the lower vote for ALP and Greens. Then, further down, we have:

quote:

As expected, the Liberal Party has been unable to repeat its unprecedented 2014 result when the party filled four of the five seats in Braddon.

Jeremy Rockliff and Adam Brooks have been easily re-elected, with Rockliff's preferences to determine who wins the third Liberal seat. Roger Jaensch is better placed than Joan Rylah to win re-election.

Labor gains a seat, with Shane Broad to be re-elected, and former Burnie Mayor Anita Dow joining him in the House of Assembly.

So the gist of the story is, the ALP and Greens vote is down but the government was reelected with one less seat for certain. Either a brilliant strategy to get at the truth whilst conforming to clickbait righty mantras or habits die hard.

All I want from life is for there to be a leadership spill for the Libs shortly before the election and Abbott is the only one crazy enough to put his hand up, winning by default and leading to a election drubbing of hilarious scale.

In theory if he wanted to go full scorched Earth and could gather a couple of supporters he could threaten to support a vote of no confidence in the government couldn't he?

That's fantasy world thinking though since he'd be immediately booted from the Nationals.

by now the nationals have probably worked out that they're hosed if they do anything again and the only chance they have of extracting anything for the regions between now and next year is by supporting whoever the liberals want

loving toad of a man throwing mud at his partner's character and then pulling this poo poo.

Here's the statement he released earlier:

quote:

Yes, I was ineligible for federal selection due to being a New Zealand citizen and took hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars of taxpayer money in salary which I will never have to pay back. Yes, I was cheating on my wife while using the 'sanctity of marriage' to attempt to permanently deprive others of their right to marry the person they loved. Yes, I got my adulterous partner pregnant while staying in a $4000 a week luxury condo belonging to a campaign contributor. Yes, I got $3million dollars of public money spent on another property of that same campaign contributor while no longer a sitting federal senator. But have you considered that maybe Vikki Campion's a dirty whore who can't keep her legs together?

Also I would ask that the media please give us our privacy, thank you.
