Happy August everyone!

Last month the most important discussion was around the Greens brand management moving forward. The brand needs more ba-zing, more ka-pow, more hats. I think we can synergise the brand by maximising our value add and increasing brand perception with our target demo.



Let's start brain storming, i'll get the butchers paper and markers.

regardless of the awful pun above, it would probably at least have an impact on the housing market if people from china end up having to sell some of their overseas assets. Mostly the inner city apartment market.

yeah housing would be interesting to watch in that scenario. especially the already flooded inner city market like in melb.

china is our largest export trade partner, but i think the vast majority of what we export is like wool, coal, lng, etc. maybe our wool trade would experience a downturn as that's being transformed into more complex products like clothes or what not by private industry who would be harder hit by a recession. things like coal / lng would drop due to less demand (if their manufacturing takes a downturn), but considering over two thirds of china's power is from coal and it's nationalised i'd think it'd continue.

i'd guess that other countries that are exporters of more complex products, technology, etc might be hit worse.

lmao that the rest of Australia is so backwards and brokebrain that they couldn't handle reusable bags to the point they have Coles risking fines to put the plastic ones back

Has Woolworths backflipped as well?

Because this is probably a really low effort move by Coles to grab disgruntled Woolworths customers.

People see different things in the “preferred leader” poll. I’d wager a fair chunk of the greens for Bishop contingent read the question as “who do you think would be best placed to achieve the LNP’s goals” - to which Bishop is probably the only credible answer at this point.

whereas if i were polled i'd pick the person who would more than likely turn people away from the libs, just to gently caress with them as someone mentioned earlier. however it wouldn't be j bish because she's too competent.

Perhaps she should have installed the new conservative safe space app by Cory Bernadi

quote:

SENATOR Cory Bernardi has today launched an app as a safe space for conservatives where supporters can share their views without the threat of abuse.

Addressing party faithful in Queensland this morning the Australian Conservatives leader launched the app, called A Better Way, so that political conservatives now have their own social network in cyberspace to share their views and ideas.

Senator Bernardi said the app, that is the first campaign-ready political party app in Australia, is available on IOS and Android smart phones and products

“It’s a way for us and you to interact across the conservative divide,” he told about 200 supporters in Brisbane.

“It’s a safe space for conservatives, you shouldn’t be abused.”

Mr Bernardi said the app would not only enhance the party’s campaigning abilities but conservatives could win prizes by using it.

“It is the future of campaigning technology, you can win prizes by participating,” he said.

Senator Bernardi said users could win points by competing against other conservatives on a local and national level.

“We love competition and I want to see you out compete each other to be the most active conservative,” he said.

It will also give Australian Conservative party members the ability to “target individuals in your community” with campaign material, he said.

i thought i'd check it out, so you don't have to:









all i can see on the news feed for tonight is 3 serious people posting about brown peril and 3 or so joke signups promoting the benefits of communism

apparently if i earn enough points or something i can harass people in my postcode. i have no idea how that'll play out

Bernardi keeps trying to use online platforms to drive political engagement (or harvest political data), it's weird and interesting.

yeah their preferred signup option was use your fb account, however signing up via email was easy. i only needed to put a name in and that was it, but there's a whole lot more optional info you can fill out if you're so inclined. they're really keen to know the postcode, promising ~special poo poo~ for doing so.
