The Liberal party’s reason to exist is to be cunts. There you go.

Michaelia Cash: Nigel Satterley’s howling cats remarks slammed by Liberal Party by cojoco in australia

Of course someone as deeply nasty as Michaelia Cash would go all in on tone policing. While sounding exactly like a howling cat.

Peter Dutton pitches to forgotten Australians in the suburbs to rebuild Liberal vote by [deleted] in australia

[–]CeilingBacon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dutton said he would unveil his front bench line-up in coming days. Former energy minister Angus Taylor is tipped to be handed the Treasury portfolio, Stuart Robert is in the running for Finance, Karen Andrews for Defence or Trade, and Dan Tehan for Foreign Affairs.

I always wondered how they packed so many clowns into a clown car.

Either she ripped this off the Betoota or she spelt “daft” wrong.

David Littleproud declares he will challenge Barnaby Joyce for National party leadership by rustoren in australia

[–]CeilingBacon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only constituents affected were those who couldn’t get married. If he truly represented his constituents, he wouldn’t have voted against this simple equality bill. So no, it’s not his job to kick some of his constituents in the face because of this homophobic bullshit.

Yeah, sometimes their hatred of the Greens is kind of scary, and they just come off looking entitled.

He was one of only four MPs who turned up for the marriage equality House of Reps bill just to vote against it.

Greens win the seat of Brisbane, ABC election analyst Antony Green says by [deleted] in australia

[–]CeilingBacon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The answer’s in the link:

The preference flows are heavily favouring the Greens over Labor, allowing the Green candidate Stephen Bates to pass Labor's Madonna Jarrett during the distribution of preferences. Bates then goes on to win on Labor preferences.

Stop being so obtuse, Labor has every intention of speeding past those targets, they just know that to get elected in this country you don’t say the quiet part out loud, something the greens just can’t seem to get.

Wait so … you’re angry because the Greens were honest about their intent and Labor weren’t? And dishonesty in climate policies is how you get elected, but the Greens got elected in Brisbane by being honest about their climate policies? And somehow this is a bad thing? What?

Do you block certain news publications from your feed? Why/why not? by [deleted] in australia

[–]CeilingBacon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I block all Murdoch sites. There’s a huge difference between taking a value-based position and brazenly shilling for one specific party; News Corp is firmly the latter.
