Dutton gone. LNP wrecked. Murdoch and Gina sidelined. Tragic day for billionaires trying to run the country—guess they’ll have to settle for crying into their tax breaks.

LNP annihilated. Dutton loses his seat. Murdoch and Gina’s grip broken. Australia just shrugged off the parasites.

TRUMPISM REJECTED IN AUSTRALIA
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has been re-elected as his Labor Party surged to victory and is projected to form a majority government. In a historic first, opposition leader Peter Dutton—often likened to Donald Trump—lost his own seat of Dickson.

Peter Dutton has told supporters to forget about outlets such as the ABC and The Guardian and other “hate media”.
As polls continue to show a decline in support for Dutton, the opposition leader declared he could win. shorturl.at/vHjjN

If this UK parliament inquiry really lifts the lid on #AUKUS it won't be a pretty sight. UK sub programs are a shambles. SSN-AUKUS won't be developed in time. We need our own inquiry to hold Defence to account for its biggest cockup ever. #auspol

This election is going to be different. For the first time in almost a century it looks like the Murdochs just don’t matter, @mediumandmessage.bsky.social writes.
Finally, an election where Murdoch doesn’t matter — and it's News Corp's own fault
After decades of media moguls acting as political kingmakers, we finally have an election where the Murdoch family just won't have much of a say.

Gina Rinehart is bankrolling right-wing causes, pushing pro-mining policies over climate action and worker rights.
Her funding of conservative politicians and media outlets mirrors the role of billionaire backers in the US who fuel Trumpism.

I just keep thinking of the heartlessness of going to an election promising to sack 41,000 people just because they’ve chosen public service. The LNP talks of small business owners going out of business as a tragedy. How is sending thousands of people into unemployment not?

The LNP’s plan to cut public service jobs shows a disregard for workers & families. Every election, they promise mass layoffs to appear “fiscally responsible,” but it’s really about ideology, outsourcing, and attacking Labor strongholds. The irony? They just hire pricey consultants instead. #auspol

The US is no longer an ally and certainly not a serious nation we can trust our defence to.
@australianlabor.bsky.social it’s time to begin negotiating out of AUKUS and into sensible regional pacts.
