Half tempted to join the Greens again just so I can get a better view at the bloodbath.

I think Bhathal would be better to have in parliament than Ged, but Jesus Christ is Ged a huge upgrade on Feeney, also maybe just maybe the greens learn that they don’t have to be contrarian to labor policy just for the sake of it (imo the ship has long since sailed on the possibility of the alp not being needlessly hostile towards the greens)

Whitlam posted:The Batman campaign was the final straw: why I quit the Greens. Yeah it's time to join a party without infighting and leaking such as: Bullet train? Also isn't forcing Labor to run a left candidate a win for the greens irrespective of outcomes? Labor not being able to coast in with right wing shitheads is a good result overall right?

Just why? How does fighting the battery plant help you at all? Surely none of your campaign donors are loosing money to it? So why, other than spite and a hatred for anything that isn't coal/gas combustion, bother ffs. They must know they will end up regretting it?

JBP posted:I'm pretty sure they're all as "fresh" as you can get. I actually feel really bad for Weatherill since he seems like one of the only politicians in the game with an actual vision, rather than just trying to win for the sake of winning or defending business interests. I enjoyed his tenacity and take no poo poo attitude and it sucks that the state didn't get another term of him trying to achieve some good stuff. Weatherill made me feel whatever the opposite of shame is about SA. The absolutely only silver lining to this is that Xenophon also got told where to stick it.

Pipingshrike gets to almost Andrew Elder-levels of cynicism But in a nutshell I think he has it right, Elder will have harsher things to say of course. It's not that SA Best was...weird or that the Greens fought their internal battles as an election strategy. Those are the narratives the media and the major parties would prefer you follow. The story of why the ALP got a swing against it of 7% vs the victorious SA Libs, is the continuing trend that must not be named. Pipingshrike is being generous by calling that "passive" reporting, but really it's a minimising strategy by the mainstream media and the majors themselves. Whatever we think of minor parties, the take-home message should be that they're attracting voters away from the majors by voters in search of a different deal, and as long as the establishment keeps denying them that deal, the more will drain away. I get that returning the Libs in SA seems like deliberate self-sabotage by voters, but people don't cast a vote that they think will hurt them, it's the result of disenchantment with both majors and the way the preferential system works. Also blaming the electorate in this way is just shoring up the self-image of the majors who cannot imagine in any way that a minor party might attract votes from their adoring followers. The Greens infighting in Batman was immature and destructive, but 7% less voters voted ALP, and they cannot twist that into a victory particularly with a Pyrrhic 1% margin. Whatever, I'm sure other states are about to benefit from an exodus of experienced advisers and other political apparatchiks from the Liberal pyre in SA and the ALP will continue to lose support in the cities. edit: ALP vote was said by Pipingshrike to have gone up by 7%, i got that confused with the SA vote. The latest AEC tally shows a swing towards of only 3.2%. ewe2 fucked around with this message at 08:59 on Mar 19, 2018 |

You guys ever think that the media is playing the long game and will get Bill in the PM chair just so they can unload on him and allow for Dutton to be able to sit on his throne of refugee skulls?

The battery has killed profits from gas peaker plants, since they don't need to spin up as quickly the surge price on power is much lower and the battery is killing the power cartel. Of course they want to stop any future batteries which would impact party doners.

From reading the article it's less 'killing the battery' and more 'giving that money to Liberal voters instead' by turning it into a subsidy instead of installing a virtual battery power plant on state housing.

The "virtual powerplant" thing is the bit they cancelled which would have been "government owned" infrastructure on state housing with a discount given to residents (poor people that don't vilote for the libs)

I like how millennials can't frame anything outside of fantasy novels for kids so when they try to participate in an election and get screamed at by some lunatic campaigner who hasn't slept in a week they go off and make a bunch of complaints that their feelings got hurt and then tank the election
