Pretty good numbers. What about over 30, 40
And 50? I’d like to see it by decades

Your wish is my command

Think of a modern progressive Australia, do you think of Morrison, Barnaby, Albo??

I mean me are so devoid of a modern Australia at a political level its beyond comprehension.

 

[edgie]

Yep. Australia as a whole is centralist society. We are a very multicultural, our systems on the whole work, there is no excestential threat, people in general get along. The fringe groups get more press than they deserve, whether left or right. Even The Nationals who some of zealots want to paint as Fascists are just looking after what they believe to be the interests of country people.

They aren't.

They've lost seats all over the place except the coast.

They're looking for the interests of big business multi millionaire producers and not hiding it, not country people and smaller scale agriculture.

I wonder if Gladys slept with Morrison in order to get more vaccine than Victoria ?

She won't be able to recall

It would be one of the finest pieces of trolling ever if she responded to that question like that

South Australian health authorities are considering introducing mandatory COVID vaccinations for teachers and school staff.
Chief Public health officer Professor Nicola Spurrier yesterday told reporters “it’s definitely something we are looking at”.
“We have to think through all of the pros and cons in going down that path and we’re in the process of doing just that and also looking at what other states have done in that regard,” she said.
Premier Steven Marshall said SA authorities had been “loath to introduce anything mandatory outside of the national cabinet framework” but “we’ll look at it carefully”.
“We are looking at all of those matters at the moment,” he said yesterday.
“I don’t have anything to report today but very happy to look at that more closely into the future.

“Some states have made it mandatory – I think Victoria has made it completely mandatory – but they do find themselves in a very different situation much earlier than we have so we’ll look at it carefully.”
The State Government yesterday announced COVID vaccination hubs would open at another 54 schools in lagging areas across Adelaide and the regions, as data shows South Australia still has the second-lowest rate in the country for 12-15 year olds.
The hubs are on top of 24 already operating at SA schools, with health authorities hoping to vaccinate 34,000 students by the end of the school term.
The sites have been chosen in areas to give priority access to vulnerable communities and those with lower vaccination rates.


The Education Department is also conducting a ventilation audit to see if any modifications are needed in schools to help reduce the spread of the virus, once borders open on November 23 and the virus enters SA. The audit is expected to be completed in early December.

Thanks for ruining my breakfast with that image ...

I agree with most of this, but there certainly is an existential crisis of democracy.

There ALWAYS is.

They really aren't though as when it comes to climate change and environmental issues they are going to be the first to suffer when floods, fires & drought becomes the norm

They are looking after the mine owners that pay their bills!

Connected to point 1.

 

[Puddy]

A few boomers die. A few health care workers get some overtime, the rest of get on with our lives. Seems pretty straightforward.

We don't get OT in health. We get unpaid overtime

Democracy in this country has long been a narrow funnel.

Choose Party A (Red) or Party B (Blue).
Both not that different.
Hence Turnbull and Rudd being interchangeable.

But something has flipped.
The whole idea of Red or Blue owning the middle ground has changed.

The far right now tries to control the Blue through capitalist conservatism.
The left is still toggling between inner city and blue collar while not changing very much (i.e. the flip on property legislation changes).

Media seems to be what is causing this divide, with the far right media becoming more so, while the CBS led left is slowing moving left.
Aunty still clinging to the middle but sliding left.

Are the media doing this to represent the US situation as we become the 53rd state or is there more to it?

and the Liberal party look after the interests of business and rich people and the Labor party look after the interests of the working person and poor people.......

You said it. I regularly worked 9 or 10 hours a day for just over 7 hours pay. Never got overtime nor Toil.

There is a massive worldwide movement which has been brewing for years and we are becoming part of it.
The Right and Far Right believe in helping those who help themselves.

Now in theory this is a good thing.

The problem is that they interpret those helping themselves as billionaires, mining magnates, Exxon, large and very powerful religious organisations etc.

Scomo trying to bring in here similar things to some US states such as push for voter ID to attempt to keep his party in power when our voting system seems to work just fine. So where did that come from? Sow the seeds.
Stop the Steal
is occurring in places like Brazil with Bolsonaro trying the strategy similar to the GOP. Repeat the lie often enough and people start to believe you.

Power corrupts we all know that.
Neither side of politics is immune but Scomo is definitely not to be trusted.
Sadly there is a dearth of good leaders worldwide on either side. Oh for the good old days

This hasn't been true for a very long time.

 

[Harlott]

Yep. Neither has PG’s take on the national party.

 

[bomberclifford]

Yep. Neither has PG’s take on the national party.

Point taken.

 

[Papa G]

Yeah the traditional broad base of each party is:
Labor - The working class/Public Servants/the poor
Liberal - Business, small business and the middle/upper class
The Nationals - Country People/Farmers
The Greens - Environmentalists

Broadly it is still sort of true but not wholly true.

is this like 'your 50 times more likely to be a crows supporter is your mum sips chardonnay and your dad drinks southwick?

labor - working class? 20 years ago maybe but not now, their base is upper class house wife who needs to easy their social conscience, inner city yuppy who identifies with their roots and poor dole bludger who wants the extra $20 they will throw at them.

 

[AFC AFeederClub]

one nation is disillusioned nats & libs who have the wisdom to see the car-crash coming around the corner but are 10 years ahead of their time to be taken seriously and a couple of bitter labor voters who are still angry with the removals of tariffs by the hawke/keating governments.

Actually, as Labor has moved towards the inner city leftie woke clique types, One Nation has picked up quite a few of the dissaffected working class. There was a One Nation candidate in Joel Fitzgibbons Coal mining seat in the Hunter who got nearly 22% of the primary vote last election.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Wow, the guy who wanted the refugee players on our list to shut up and stick to footy and thinks Adam Goodes is a 'flog of the highest order' is a One Nation sympathiser. Colour me absolutely shocked.

Anyone worth their salt isn't going to want to deal with the 24 hour news cycle.
Hence the current muppet show.

If it wasn't for the rapid acceleration out of the ice age, this could just be normal to and fro.
Unfortunately, rapid climate change could see Australia become the next WW2 Great Britain, or it could become the next Syria, or maybe something new.
The big boys like to fight their battles away from home and the troops are already being deployed.

40,000 years of habitation would argue some will survive the coming climate volatility, but the first nations didn't have to deal with global politics.

Anyway, back to the other horseman
