If you're thinking Omicron makes Morrison's issues around the pandemic go away I'm assuming you're a liberal voter

 

[Evolved1]

From what I understand, ScoMo is widely disliked in VIC, although I accept that said dislike predates OMICRON.

Quite a few of the retirees in QLD were less than thrilled about it, although I expect much of that anger to dissipate come election time. In Brisbane, inflation + oil prices and their effect on working families (professionals and especially tradies) will likely be a bigger issue. Plus ScoMo has put off inner-city Brisbane by moving the party closer to ON and introducing a more overtly religious element.

Inflation, oil prices, and omicron can't really be pinned on ScoMo.

I'm yet to meet anyone who admits to liking ScoMo. Is it too late for the LNP to give him the boot?

That makes no sense.

 

[Ghost Patrol]

That makes no sense.

perverts spell checked to prevents? Would make sense....

Thats because i somehow wrote prevents on my phone instead of pandemic and didn't notice

Inflation + oil prices are part of what John Howard called the 'felt economy', and in his autobiography he acknowledges how that was a factor in his 2007 defeat, even though obviously he had no real control over it.

I disagree about OMICRON. Granted, it would have spread anyway, but ScoMo's approach towards it came off as very insouciant, and was epitomised by his failure to make sure RATs were quickly and widely distributed so people could self-isolate if necessary. That would have spread the disease faster, and more, than was necessary.

I'm a swinging voter, a pretend centrist.

Which way you swinging currently

I agree that RAT's were a major failure, but I view that separately to omicron. I have no issue with the spread of omicron in Victoria, and in some ways view it as a positive given its milder symptoms. The spread of omicron was preferable to further lockdowns and missed schooling.

 

[Evolved1]

ALP federally and LNP state on TPP basis. I can't stand Scummo or Dan.

Yes, I can understand that POV given that VIC suffered disproportionally from previous COVID variants.

QLD were largely spared that, save for the odd outbreak in Brisbane, but OMICRON basically swamped the state, so the felt impact would have been quite different, especially considering our relatively high population of retirees and our reliance on mining for revenue.

Must be a burning hatred to vote for the current vic libs

I saw something about liberal voters and assumed it was about me, even if I couldn't understand the rest of it.

It's a vote against rather than for.

 

[NSWCROW]

Google ScoMo translate:

'India is not China so that is OK'

****en typical conservative weasel

 

[Off The Couch]

 

[campbell]

You have an ALP state government.

oh, so we are not worthy to be part of Australia as we have a non LNP government.

Rightio.

 

[campbell]

Not much anyone can do in these circumstances, though I would expect ScoMo to offer some assistance after the fact if it was needed.

To show empathy for what people are going through, would be a friggen start.

 

[DaRick]

Yes it would be, but given ScoMo's penchant for spin over substance, I wouldn't take much notice even if he did say something TBH.

Following up with actual assistance is more important.

 

[Kram]

I can't believe he hasn't even addressed the shortages of food products on WA shelves atm. Not having any taco shells or burrito pockets available is absolutely killing me.

Heh, in my electorate (Petrie) random shortages were a thing for weeks.

Regrettably, it looks like WA now gets to 'enjoy' the same thing.

agree.

but, yet again, he has taken a break from his responsibilities to his fellow Australians.

oh dear, do you need a drone drop ? I have plenty. yummmmm.
