Aurubin posted:Is the Australian government always this fractious? I caught a bit of it with Rudd and then full force with Abbott/Turnbull but I figured those were anomalous. The closest the Liberals had was when Don Chipp left to start the Democrats. However Chipp was a House of Reps member for the Libs, left them and then became a Senator for the Democrats.

Morons. They have been so against the Metro Rail tunnel that's it's getting ridiculous

I've seen that Caleb bloke on The Drum and he seems to be the quintessential young Liberal person, but with more acne. He's 22 years old yet looks like he's just hit pubertySolemn Sloth posted:Hahahahahaha Truly he is a piss weak PM. It's getting embarrassing how awful he is at negotiating, which is terrible since he was a lawyer and investment banker. Maybe he's so used to getting his own way all the time due to those previous roles that he doesn't understand when someone stands up to him.

https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2017/feb/20/wa-election-turnbull-threatens-funding-delay-if-perth-freight-link-scrapped Looks like Malcolm is pulling the same trick with WA as Abbott did with Victoria when the State Labor dumped the East-West link plan, and Abbott wouldn't give them the money for the Metro Link. In Turnbull's case, he is withholding the money if the Perth Freight Link gets put on hold or scrapped by WA Labor. Don't the Federal Libs ever learn? Blackmailing voters like that so they can get their state morons over the line.

gently caress I hate Australian Mainstream/Commercial media. Pauline Hanson or one of her moron candidates does something disgraceful: "Oh that's our Pauline/One Nation! What laughs! Here's Pauline again with an awful sound bite. Remember Pauline is the only alternative to Labor and Liberals" The Greens: Either deathly silence or OMG RABIT LEFTIES WANT US TO EAT MUNG BEANS AND poo poo IN A HOLE while totally misunderstanding most of the Greens policies or handwaving them off as "extremist leftie views". And this isn't just the Murdoch media, Fairfax, ABC, SBS and online sites like Buzzfeed and sometimes even New Matilda are guilty of this.

The SDA was ruled by a ruthless the Dutchman Joe de Bruyn who opposed anything progressive, like same sex marriage. As Whitlam once joked about De Bruyn "Joe de Bruyn is a Dutchman who hates dykes." Considering the age and views of the people who would join (or forced) to join that union, its leadership was well out of step. The SDA was the only union not to be investigated by Abbott's
