PM Albanese has seen both Greens Leader Adam Bandt AND Liberal Leader Peter Dutton lose the election AND their seats. Is Labor the "sensible centre"? 🤔 #auspol #Albanese #Dutton #Bandt #LaborLandslide

Wilson: "Nuclear power is part of building the future industrial base of our country. If we don’t do that, then we are saying either we’re going back to coal, or we as a nation are going to end industrialisation. That is not a future I am prepared to accept."

Holy shite. He can't be that dumb.

Timmy Wilson suggesting a grassroots movement brought him back to power is Jacinta Price level of detachment from reality.

Advance led a disgusting campaign that was tailored perfectly for someone who is an empty suit.
Perhaps Tim Wilson can tell us how much the Liberal Party spent on his campaign, and how big were the cheques that Advance, Australians for Prosperity and other Atlas and Liberal-aligned organisations cashed on his behalf to shoehorn him back into Goldstein?

Ok. I think we’ve had enough “why did the Libs lose” articles.

Let’s move on to things that matter, rather than the trivial inner workings of a minor party.

This is magnificent from Annabel Crabb:

Adam Bandt is in serious strife. With 64% of the vote counted, Labor’s Sara Witty leads by 2,899. Postal votes — likely to favour Liberals — would funnel even more preferences to Labor. Albanese might pull off the staggering: toppling two party leaders in one election

Your type of ignorant commentary is the reason I left twitter

Bitter, jealous, judgmental little males with zero sense of humour & not a gram of self-reflection

Still laughing that the Libs went with a nuclear policy and had Ted O’Brien selling it.

As another article drops about Scott Yung in The Guardian saying he’s distancing himself from Dutton - I can also tell you that he told a contact of mine when they asked about the Liberal nuclear plan - that he’d cross the floor 😳
