The coalition will never win the federal government again.

modern conservatism ..... makes ya proud doesnt it

They're on the edge of losing that entire contingent of women forever, if they haven't already.

Who on EARTH does he think he's bringing back to the Libs with that spiel?

A tiny bit hard to win elections when as a Lib senator you're too stupid to understand how our electoral system works and you get publicly schooled by the AEC .

Another from Hughes who as newly appointed shadow minister for climate change called climate change a "luxury issue" after an election result where the issue of climate change was a major factor .

The Shadow Assistant Minister For Climate Change Says It's A "Luxury Issue" For Voters

Hollie Hughes claimed Australia “could shut everything down tomorrow and all go live in trees” and it wouldn't make much of a difference.

Third, Liberals got 23.89% of the vote which makes them a fringe party with the greens.

It will take a few weeks to stabilise…get off the hyper train…

The reason no one asked a question is because no one showed up.

The ******* dumb hicks who vote for the Nationals are welcome to their coal lobby party and seeing thermal coal become impossible to sell in the coming decades. You were warned, and you chose poorly.

Enjoy your time in opposition you flogs.

Yeah the ‘farmers party’ are more dangerous and strategic’…watch your combine harvester…

Didn't you say earlier culture was determined by institutions? The monarchy is one such institution and thus it influences our culture. Obviously we wouldn't have no culture if we became a monarchy, because we have other institutions.

But I think your view of culture is simplistic, and it very much does depend on personal connections to that culture. And of course, there is no one Australian culture that encompasses all. We will always be a multicultural nation.

That other poster, what he or she is about used to be called "cultural cringe" wasn't it?

You know, I was interested to see how Littleproud would perform as leader of the Nationals and I didn't have to wait long to make up my mind about him after watching his performance on the Insiders on the weekend.

He is nothing more than a Barnaby Joyce with pretensions of being a marketeer.

It's ironic that the Liberal party went from Abbott to an Abbott with some idea of marketing (Morrison) and the Nationals have followed suit albeit with a dumbed down version - it's the National Party, what do you expect?

The Liberals have now decided to go back to an Abbott with a makeover to try and hide his grotesqueness. What's the odds that they find Canavan a safe national seat in the Reps so when they get routed again at the next election, they'll follow the Libs again and make Canavan their leader?

The Liberal Party with Dutton and Littleproud as the Deputy leader of the opposition and the out and out bimbo Sussan Ley as the deputy leader of the Liberal Party is a hoot - Sussan Ley for f**ks sake!

As you said, "Enjoy your time in opposition you flogs": I know I certainly will!

I watched about 30 seconds of Canavan on Bolt last night. What is the purpose of that echo chamber?

So a bit mischievous of you!! Firstly, Labor's primary vote was less than one third - 32.57% Secondly it is the 'LNP' coalition and collectively the LNP secured 35.73% of the national vote on first preferences.

the libs and the nats are two different parties, hence why they contest seats against each other (permitted when its not held by a coalition member)

even in the qld LNP, members have to choose which party they will caucus with

23.88% for the Liberals - I was overly generous

 

[Sttew]

Fair enough, but 32.57% is not exactly anything to rave about. That means more than two thirds of voters did NOT vote Labor

 

[Sttew]

Who said they weren't? When was the last time that a conservative government was not comprised of Libs and Nats in coalition?

You want to have a look into how many first choice votes some Senators get elected with.

Yes but people like myself vote tactically. I voted greens first then labor so labor get the message that i want mmcc addressed.

If it were first pass the post id have voted labor.

[SBD Gonzalez]

Richard Marles appears to be moving with great swiftness to introduce a serious anti-corruption body with real powers. Great news. Hope the Coalition crooks are squirming at the thought of it.

The government have the same majority on the floor as the previous one.
