SET PHASERS TO "GRINDING TEDIUM"

Arach posted:

The amazing thing about tonight, especially for non-Queenslanders who don't realise, is that the ALP was extinct in Queensland last time round. Not even an ocean of Anna Bligh tears could save them. A handful of no-hopers that never one has ever of left over after the apocalypse.

I was just expecting a correction. No-one really expected them to win out right. It's a remarkable comeback. Not that the ALP have the SLIGHTEST loving idea what to do now, they honestly never expected to win.

Just staffing the offices is going to be a serious struggle for us. The size of Young Labor in QLD has something like tripled since 2012, but we still only have enough kids over 20 with some semblance of work experience to fill *maybe* 20 electorate offices, and I wouldn't wish the task of hiring for the ministry on my worst enemy right now.

Don't listen to us!

We're fuckwits!!
Worst state leader since Bjelke-Petersen thrown out after a single term. Queenslanders might be as dumb as a sack full of hammers, but even they have their limits it seems.

 Congratulations QLD on not loving up.

I made some money on Bill Shorten becoming ALP leader a while back, so I dumped the winnings on this. Thanks for reminding me sportsbet exists auspol :shepspends:

I'm pretty sure the thousands of jobs lost have value.
