Very clear “strategy” emerging from the Liberals - blame everyone pointing out their flaws and Trumpisms and characterise them as “mud slingers” rather than acknowledge any wrongdoing. #auspol #ausvotes

Australians have tonight shown they will not support a right-wing, racist leaning, Trump-leaning political party. Very proud of Australia's electoral system, and of our collective common sense #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-05...

This is an impressive result for a first time independent running against the ALP and an LNP incumbent who has been in the seat since 2016.

The seat of Dickson will be interesting!

Also in Dickson. So far 66 numpties have voted for Michael Jessop, formerly of Sunshine Coast, currently facing criminal and weapons charges

Sorry you ended up with him Dickson, but we have had him for yrs and really don't want him back

I don’t think we’ve had a more divisive politician than Dutton

We’ve got whack jobs like ON/UAP -but Dutton is supposed to represent a major party & their constituents.

He’s shown no integrity or unity. He’s consistently punched down, created culture wars, chaos & hate.

He’s NOT what we need here

We are looking to go to Japan from 22 Mar 26 - 16 Apr 26

We love history, food, hikes, new adventures!

We will be building our own intinerary, not going through a travel company.

What places are "must see" or experiences are "must do" in your opinion?

Why aren’t journalists across recent history? The last govt sacked public servants and replaced them with more expensive consultants. Labor got rid of the consultants and reemployed permanent public servants who could actually do the job. Is Dutton going to ring consultants again? He will have to.

Somewhere among the thousands of reasons the ABC has now given for why it sacked (or didn't sack) Antoinette Lattouf, there has to be a good one. Statistically, at least.
