the one across the road from my house which I thankfully cannot see from my house was vandalised to read "F NOVAK SAVE REFUGEES" using some of the letters from the original billboard and the rest were painted over and re-done.


as of this morning it is a fresh new yellow billboard :(

In the rest of the country does he include the Nationals in the list of parties you can't trust? It does seem weird that his pitch for power is that people can't trust returning the Liberals, Labor, and Greens to power.

Which certainly is a hell of a coalition.

pretentious fuckwit who isn't half as literate or insightful or clever as he thinks he is
the signs vary from place to place - i got to see several variations driving from sydney to brisbane a few weeks ago.

the funniest ones were the one that said "liberals, labor and the greens" followed about a hundred km later by one that only said "the national party"

I happened to be in country NSW a week or so ago, and the Nationals were the only party mentioned on the billboard (which makes sense since I don't think the electorate has ever elected a non National/Country Party member)

I get the impression he doesn't actually want to win and instead wants to exert enough influence on the flow of preferences to assist a liberals win.

if his goal was simply to elect the liberals he would be doing what he did last time (run a ton of anti-labor ads and not much else)

I get that, and it's probably a valid use of money everywhere else but WA. The hate WA feels for him is something I've never seen before. They don't use his name, just some mix of a derogatory term and the adjective fat. And then we know who we're all talking about.

Loving teardrop twitter at the moment - two stories in two days about MPs misusing their allowances.

First was Tim Wilson:

Then Albo:

That’s bad, right? No, it’s a CONSPIRACY against OUR ALBO instead of two MPs enriching themselves like MPs do.

I read that article and it sounds like it's all completely legal and commonplace. It sounds like they get a daily travel allowance paid regardless of if they travel or not.

It's weird, but if it's just part of the standard compensation package, who cares.

MPs claim their legally allowed allowances. Oh no! Corruption!

Can we focus instead on actual corruption? Like that time Dutton altered the visas of au pairs because his old mate asked him too. Or that time he got caught doing that and so brought big files with the ex-Labor Ministers for that portfolios names on them, refused to table them and then when his Department was asked for those folders the reply was 'we didn't supply the Minister with any documents to go in those files'. So Dutton just wrote their names on these fat files full of people and tried to intimidate Labor MPs with leaking privledged information for funsies?

Or maybe we can focus on all these dead and dying residents of aged care homes, overseen by the Federal government.
