It's easy to imagine a coal lobby all on it's own running an anti ALP campaign even if the iron or gas sectors are placated. Surely after Rudd -> Gillard the ALP know what they're in for. One thing about the killing country towns angle though - isn't there increasing automation in the pipeline for mining? Didn't I read that Adani itself is planned as highly automated? The ALP needs to get ahead of that game and save those towns from automation.

Nobody in industry or politics ever gave a gently caress about country towns. It's all smoke and mirrors for maintaining subsidies for mining companies and resisting further regulation etc. The Adani mine is predicted to create about 1000 jobs. Over the lifetime of the entire mine. It's not statistically significant even on the state level, let alone nationally.

bandaid.friend posted:Photographs show the extent of the menace, some twelve-year-olds with STOP ADANI signs The AFP are tasked with protecting federal politicians and it's their job to respond and advise on this. Path of least resistance and highest safety for everyone is to just shut the door. The protest is clearly being led by adults who are trying to access private offices unannounced. These offices require permanent guards for the security of the people that work there and they did their job. If I entered the office of Sam Ratnam with a stop the rapes sign, would it be reasonable to admit me and entertain a meeting? No, it's a political stunt to get in the paper and they got into the paper. Nice attempt at a beat up though. Maybe submit to Junkee.

My feeling is that the Greens are going to loss seats - the only thing I hear is bad candidate vetting and and the local candidate sending me a text I didn't ask for asking for help. If the Federal Greens don't get their act together for the next election, I'll probably drop my membership.

Don Dongington posted:Nobody in industry or politics ever gave a gently caress about country towns. It's all smoke and mirrors for maintaining subsidies for mining companies and resisting further regulation etc. It's one of the PR pillars for the mining industry. It's the theme behind the "This is our story" campaign that rekt Rudd. The ALP can 100% expect more of this from the coal lobby because it worked before. Here's country towns mixed with opportunity for indigenous. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHuV-zFDFjg Here's country towns mixed with opportunity for women. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgnmwoY5m7Q The people behind these campaigns are often born country. So there's that. https://www.theaustralian.com.au/business/business-spectator/news-story/the-man-who-killed-rudds-mining-tax/851da8b4dc89dc8f1d34b236eba50737 And here's whatever the gently caress this is for everyone else. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CREUOpaVYJQ Shorten seems to want a bob each way to keep playing the small target but I reckon without a bigger narrative / vision from the ALP they can get wedged on this. Plus, if they get into government and then surprise most of the electorate with a massive agenda they'll be rightly called out. They should start winning that argument now, before the election. Maybe, giving them benefit of the doubt, that is their plan and they'll start ramping up their position over the coming months. But, you know, hope is a lie.

So once upon a time there were 3 nerds. One spent their adolescence on 4chan One on Reddit The other on Something Awful The 4chan one became a white nationalist and joined the Nationals only to be kicked out. The Reddit one never got a girlfriend and joined the greens only to become a sex pest. The Something Awful one became a harmless basement dwelling communist who would rather make jokes about the political climate while licking cheeto dust off his fingers and watching every episode of Insiders. This is the accurate break down of how the internet has affected the politically inclined youths of today.

jfc why are the Greens so rapey? And / or stupid? Why can't we just have a good leftist movement in Australia? Fuckwits like that make it easy for the majority to dismiss anything left of Howard.

Re Prahran: Sam Hibbins hasn't done anything to piss people off but there's not really much he can do on an individual level either so other than putting positive pictures of himself on ads before the elections there's not much to say. I took that split Ladbrokes bet for $150 split between Greens and Liberal. I don't think Labor will take it - like it's been mentioned, it's hipster/Turnbull-Tory territory here, Labor doesn't have a base. Everyone is either rich and living in a fantastic location, or living in a tiny apartment. It's the most populous district per km^2.

Aren’t reachtel polls notoriously unreliable? I mean it’s either that or Matthew Guy has inadvertently countered the entire recorded polling history of women voting more progressive than men.
