This is not good legislation. It is targeting the most vulnerable and I think it is shameful,” Mr Freelander said. Prior to voting in favour of it

Look how quickly popular opinion reversed on torturing children on manus and that was just because people finally started talking about it.

It should never be forgotten that it wasn't the ALP that triggered that discussion either - it was a few liberal moderates and an independent. The ALP were basically silent on the whole thing.

I, Butthole posted:May 18 election? quote:“the number of sitting days that will take place that are scheduled between the start of the year next year and 18 May is exactly the same as it is this year.” This is bullshit, because an election called shortly after the budget is going to wipe out a bunch of those sitting dates.

bell jar posted:don't think they'll be any different if they get in government either. bipartisanship There will be no bipartisanship, because the two party system is about to collapse. https://www.theage.com.au/national/...BL7WBaNGJjvnpaI TL;DR - the Libs will have to split, or face annihilation. If the election were called and happened with the kind of 2PP we're seeing atm, the Libs wouldn't have enough seats in either house to mount an effective opposition anyway, given the fact that the infighting is projected to intensify and result in splits on ideological grounds. I expect the outcome closer to the following election will be yet another coalition, between the (now irrelevant and likely to be eviscerated in 2019) Nats, the centre right moderate party (under I suppose Bishop) and whatever the Abbott conservatives that remain call themselves. You can expect the Hanson remain to stay on the crossbench, because she won't work with the moderates and vice versa. That coalition will continue to poo poo itself until all of the conservatives have been electorally defeated, and the moderates create a new liberal party. Not sure what implications this has for the QLD LNP, but one can assume that will certainly fracture. The Murdoch media will likely start losing readers at an accelerated rate as they continue to back the unpopular conservatives, while Fairfax and 7-West side with the moderates as they have done in the past.
