The funniest thing about HELP is that the people most likely to use a lot of it (postgrads) are also the least likely to stay in the country afterwards by virtue of there being very few research jobs in Australia. Brain drain occurs for a reason, lads, and it's not "taxes are too high".

He has a genuine reason for doing that though, being that he's going to lose his seat to the Greens at the next election if the Libs preference the Greens over the ALP.

Anidav posted:If he were leader I'd of probably have been in the ALP for a few more months but I don't think any policy difference would happen between Shorten or Albo, it's just a face realistically. It would have given me short term hope but reading Albo's panic blogs on News Ltd. makes me think far less of him than what he sounded like in 2013/Ballot era. Even symbolic victories can make a difference. He's just starting to sound like the rest of the ALP Left at this point, terrified as poo poo - which may not have happened if he'd taken over leader.

bubblelubble posted:Genuine question: Is the election of co-deputies unusual? And how would it work if, hypothetically, the Greens were elected to government? Pretty sure it's the first time it's happened, but it's a party-level position rather than government-level (so it's up to the party). If it went to government, I'm not sure there's any consideration for deputies - that said, there's no consideration for a Prime Minister in the constitution either, so it's not like these things can't be changed.

Sulla-Marius 88 posted:No news whatsoever on why Milne stepped down? I can only imagine she has received some bad medical news which is terrible if true. The reason I heard was that her son's about to have his first child and she didn't want to spend another 6 years in the senate. She's effectively been away from her family for 25 years, so another 6 would suck rear end.
