Banter Adelaide Board's Combined Politics/Covid discussion Banter Thread (WARNING NOT FOR THE FAINT-HEARTED)

[GreyCrow]

Question for the lefties here:

Which federal Liberal politician do you hate hate hate the most?

Used to be Tim Wilson but he no longer matters

 

[1970crow]

 

[Cap]

Actually no and reread your post. You lied

How George?

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Haven't followed it to closely at a seat level & suspect may be a majority government... but hoping for a minority.

ALP 75 (+6)
Coalition 68 (-8)
Greens 2 (+1)
Independents 4
Teals 2 (+1)

So kirky close with ALP & Independents, but understated loss of Liberals to Teals by a big margin!

Projected seats, out by
ALP 76 (+1)
LNP 59 (-9)
Greens 4 (+2)
Independents 4
Teals 8 (+6)

 

[George Kramer]

How George?

“They are all saying” and then proceeded to make a false stating

Read it George. Climate 200 or Get Up whatever the excuse.

It's suggesting that the Liberal seat would not have lost if the opposition didn't have money and resources George.

How could the Libs not match that George.

“All they are saying” means everyone is saying it, we are not, so you lied

They could mean more than 1.

They doesn't mean everyone in any dictionary I've read.

But let me guess that's arguing semantics

And thank me when you meet someone who defines themselves as them/they. They are not referring to everyone.

“All”

 

[Mutineer]

Can a centrist have a crack?

Matt Kean...Mr Malcolm Turnbull lite.

Seems fair with all the lefties that claim to be centrists..

 

[Cap]

“All”

Lol.

They all doesn't mean everyone. Otherwise if I say they all are playing football , the receiver would think the whole world is playing football.

Was I referring to slippery Pete too? What about the other posters

 

[George Kramer]

Lol.

They all doesn't everyone. Otherwise if I say they all are playing football , the receiver would think the whole world is playing football.

You’re referring to us on this board, so don’t be silly

Sorry you missed my edit.

So slippery Pete? 1970Crow? Anyone else who posted here? Just everyone

Question for the lefties here:

Can't you just ask which politician full stop?

Me it's Penny Wong and the SA greens Leader

 

[George Kramer]

Anyway election is over, I’ve spent most the day arguing the same crap. I’m not keen for that to continue.

Let’s hope Albo holds it together and actually leads a decent government. I also hope the Coalition don’t pick Dutton, the Nats pull their heads in and the Coalition doesn’t veer right.

I’ll drop in occasionally to say hi to kirky but in the meantime have fun without me.

For me it's Palmer & his waste of taxpayer monies on in your face election advertising.

He comes off like a used car salesman. He has an aura of untrustworthiness.

Can't say I was a fan either.

More interested in telling us want we wanted to hear, rather than what he really thought.

Who would you trust more out of Palmer & ScoMo...

 

[the universal]

All of his MP candidates looked like simply different variations of a used car salesman. Like an army of Old Gils.

Yes, it's like he was trying to deliberately assemble a group of the dodgiest politicians in Australia for his UAP.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Who would you trust more out of Palmer & ScoMo...

About the same. The difference is Scomo's lies are a little more curated, Palmer just sort of blurts out stupid shit which nobody with a functioning brain would believe.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Sturt (1%) is looking like the 3rd most marginal seat behind Deakin (0%) & Gilmore (0.4%).

Pork-barrelling incoming...

 

[Vader]

You reckon they'd just ignore the crossbench?

What happens next election when things tighten up again? Or if not that one, the one after?

They'd be wise to be accomodating even with the majority. Never know when you might need allies.

I don't think they'll be ignoring them at all - but they don't actually require their votes in order to get legislation passed.

I'm sure they'll be working very closely with them though, knowing that the next election will probably result in a hung parliament and they'll need to negotiate with these same people if they want to form Govt again in 2025. Actively pissing them off, when you'll likely need their votes for supply & confidence votes in the future, is something that only the Liberals are stupid enough to do.
