Victorian Opposition ghoul Brad Battin

[HurleyHepsHird]

Turning up to an active crime scene to hold an impromptu press conference is comic book level antagonist levels of ghoulish.

You don't electioneer using a persons stabbing as a crude political opportunity, before the family had a chance to be notified and then refuse to apologise.

What a grotesque stunt, and the way he glibly discusses the decision then doubles down reminds me of Dutton. What is it with cops that try to enter politics?

And how did that work out in the 2018 and 2022 Victorian elections..?

Not well.

A cop should also no better than to create a circus at a fresh crime scene, adding risk or difficulty to an investigation and also plausibly handing the perps a degree of notoriety.

This kind of thing is so unpleasant and unproductive, that it's the realm of schlocky crime dramas and not typically the real world.

Can you imagine a bunch of Hegseths, Huckabees and cookoo Ted Cruz like dominionists in control of a major Australian state or government.

Who knows how much harm someone like that could do.

Kinda people who would cheerfully take a trip to Hawaii while the nation burned. Seriously though, these maniacs need to be kept as far away from power as possible. Bogan ISIS.

ali moore gave inspector plod a platform to push his 'burbs under siege' rubbish during yesterdays broadcast - her sympathies are becoming more obvious by the day

Crisafulli is going to have a go at it.

agreed .... progressive changes implemented over the last 10 years are in danger if these god bothering freaks get control of the treasury benches

Forgot about that worm.

Why does Queensland always seem to periodically latch on to the odd nutter?

I don't understand how a) people who hate the non-wealthy and who are actively seeking the end of the world can be viewed as Christian, or b) aren't seen as a danger to the well-being of the wider community.

Particularly as they seem to have an almost pathological means justify the ends view of power and politics.

While I'm not a fan of the Liberals I actually didn't mind Pesutto. He also appeared to be gaining ground in the (albeit limited) polls that came out.

I can't stand this guy though and his seemingly permanently angry and aggressive look. He comes across as a real campaigner.

So why did the Liberals get rid of John Pesutto when he was actually their best chance of regaining government since 2010?

 

[Donakebab]

All the major outlets reporting on an upcoming spill motion. Dead man walking.

The Victorian Liberal Party - the gift that keeps on giving.

Utterly utterly hopeless.

The only losers here are the Victorian people who desperately need a change to a competent Government.

Given the disproportionate attacks on Wilson by Labor ministers in the past 48 hours they must be worried she will make inroads.

The one that made me laugh was Jacinta labelling Wilson a “cuts “ leader. This government has mercilessly slashed funding in so many sectors it’s sad.

Jess Wilson is off to a flying start....

 

[Sttew]

While some dinosaurs cancelled their bookings it Turns out the event has not been cancelled but is being rescheduled to 2026. The main reason was to give the new leader a chance to release policies and establish herself as leader.

Funny how the HUN is mocked as a news source 99% of the time by Allan cheerleaders but if the story is about the LNP, that’s different.

 

[winty]

Oops. I guess when you change leaders so often it does get hard to keep up after a while.

 

[kalex6251]

msm falling over themselves to support wilsons rise to position of state opposition leader - some might even think it was a coordinated effort by msm interests - signalling an ugly 2026 campaign ahead

by-the-by ....... overheard funny phone conversation in shopping centre carpark on morning of wilsons coup (hard to ignore given the raised voice) - an aggrieved white male accused 'pathetic' libs of handing next years election to that 'effing c*' ..... think its safe to say he wasnt a fan of jacinta allen ....... it bizarrely mirrored a more polite but equally venomous assault on abc radio not long after where a male caller ripped the vic libs a new one for electing a 'left winger' as leader ..... knuckle dragging RWNJ Qookers incensed that a woman pursued a life for herself beyond the boundaries of the house is the new black in conservative circles

That guy is great who runs that page, unless of course your right wing. Calls it how he sees it. Calls Wilson out for who she is too. Surprised he doesn't get infiltrated by trolls which every Labor run site online seems to happen. Well informed does hes research.

Is it because the site is a secret?
