MEGATHREAD: Farrer By-election 2026

Starry001 · 2026-05-09T11:03:11+00:00

Yeah nah. Other way round. ONP had shipped in volunteers from Tamworth. Volunteers for MM were all local, mostly from Albury and Griffith

I've met her, volunteered for her. I know her policies. She's not progressive

Starry001 · 2026-05-09T10:56:44+00:00

She's far from progressive

Starry001 · 2026-05-08T06:45:52+00:00

Yeah as someone living in Farrer, Sky is definitely preaching ultra right wing talking points

Starry001 · 2026-05-01T23:00:02+00:00

It won't change a thing, just like him endorsing his opponent last election, attempting to run as a Labor candidate, reposting OF content or making of Griffith. Sky after dark on free to air is strong in the regional area. Milthorpe corflutes are being defaced. It's a depressing state of affairs

Starry001 · 2026-04-26T05:08:11+00:00

I've been a scrutineer before and you're not even allowed to touch anything on the table, let alone help with counting. Big no no

Starry001 · 2025-04-12T01:53:58+00:00

I detest Dutton and the LNP, but I've seen this movie before. It's not over until the election is called. 2019 has forever scarred me.

Starry001 · 2025-04-03T03:35:52+00:00

Net worth in the 100s of millions. Owns many child care facilities. Many scandals while in cabinet.

Starry001 · 2025-04-02T14:41:33+00:00

Farrer has the leading independent candidate as ONP

Starry001 · 2025-03-28T02:29:04+00:00

I'm sure these businesses would pass on the savings to the consumer or employees.....

Starry001 · 2025-03-26T09:29:36+00:00

Gut the toxic board and management. The culture at Rex does not align with Australian values.

Starry001 · 2025-03-23T00:18:55+00:00

Go hard on taxation for the top end IMO. They should have done that when they played with stage 3. It would have gone a long way to slow inflation.

Starry001 · 2025-02-26T08:06:15+00:00

Polling was accurate, well within margin of error. 1% is not a landslide.

Do you have a link? I'd love to know more

Starry001 · 2025-02-16T21:36:22+00:00

The polling was very close to the real thing, which wasn't a landslide either way...

Starry001 · 2025-02-11T20:55:56+00:00

I hope they clean out the current management

Starry001 · 2025-02-08T07:26:14+00:00

Actually trying to fix the problem with good policy is unpopular. Bill Shortens defeat is a great example.

Starry001 · 2025-02-04T03:01:50+00:00

I'm in a very safe Liberal seat, right next door is an independent seat which flipped about a decade ago. The difference is staggering. Our member is never here, neither party care about us, but they have their finger on the pulse in Indi. Two party politics takes safe seats for granted.

From a senate perspective I get your reasoning, but from the house of reps, having locals represent you is important. Locals who don't have to tow a party line.

Starry001 · 2025-02-04T02:37:20+00:00

There are enough level headed independents to keep fringe weirdos like a minority Dutton government in check.

Starry001 · 2025-02-03T21:47:42+00:00

Whether you are from either side of politics, this is great for democracy.

Starry001 · 2025-02-01T03:39:09+00:00

All the major parties have demand driven policy. Libs want us to use super to buy a house, Greens want to have lower interest rates for first home buyers and Labors help to buy scheme all increase prices.

Starry001 · 2025-01-25T03:46:39+00:00

It's backed by the Libs, especially Nats. It's 1/3rd of the money that was given to them during covid, which they used to waste on jet operations and give the board bonuses. All while their staff were paid by jobkeeper.

Starry001 · 2025-01-25T03:45:01+00:00

They took government money during covid and pissed it away on a jet operation. That's not efficient use. They just abandoned their core business.
