I just had a quick look at Ged's FB and literally every policy is "if you elect me then we'll throw money at the electorate! yay!".

Except for the one that's "we'll extend a tram line."

So based on Murdoch's propensity to outright lie about polling results on election days in favour of whoever he wants to win, in order to energise their support base, ALP going to win comfortably?

I'm expecting Liberals to have more seats than Labor and Marshall to go back on his statements about never dealing with them, and to form government with SA Best support.

This will happen a week from now after a prolonged "negotiation" much like that which led to the Gillard government.

Then again SA Labor managed to get the former Lib leader supporting their government last time, so who the gently caress knows (us, in a few hours, death is certain).

The SA liberals will form government once they stop fighting their mortal enemy, the SA Liberals. SA best and Australian Conservatives are both SA Liberal splinter factions. Truly the right group for government, they are even better splitters than the left.

It's all level crossings for the time being, so the tunnel size shouldn't be an issue, unlike those pesky ~100 year old tunnels in the blue mountains that caught the LNP by surprise.

The tunnels have not yey been dug. First train is delivered for testing in dec or jan so it shouldnt be an issue, besides the trains won't run through the new tunnels until 2025 when the metro 1 is finished.

Not sure it's been brought up enough how extremely pathetic it is that the Liberals didn't even run a candidate in a federal seat. Has either major party ever just sat one out before?

The only tram line news I can find is either paywalled by Murdoch, or uBlock gives a huge warning about.

There's this one where David Feeney promised to get it extended 1km. The Greens want it 3km to connect to a railway station.

I'm suuuuurreeeeeee Labour will get right on that proposal. After we get an airport train link. And Metro 2. Maybe.
