If the #NationalParty joined a coalition with #OneNation they’d get their numbers up & perks back.
I’m waiting to see movement #auspol
Australians have long memories in politics. Over the last 20 years, they have got to know the vibe of the #Coalition very well. They could sense that #Trump is king-pig at the end of slippery pigsty-slope inhabited by hard-right populists like #Howard, like #Abbott, #Morrison, #Dutton and most of his Liberal National colleagues, particularly since the moderates lost to Teals, or to #Liberal factional warring.
When Dutton worked out that his Trump-like politics might be problematic, he made a concerted effort to put away the #MAGA hats. This attempt at pivoting was the reason the Coalition’s campaign looked like such a mess. Asking Dutton and his colleagues to hide their MAGA is like asking the Labor Party not to defend Medicare. Dutton tried #backflipping from #policies, tried to stop talking about #nuclear, worked to present a different face.
But ultimately, in the final two weeks, this shapeshifting became too hard and Dutton gave in to his base instincts. He dived back into the culture-warring like a pig in mud with his attacks on #welcomeTocountry ceremonies and his #preference deal with #OneNation. All this did was remind Australians how Trump-like he is. #auspol

That they lost because they weren’t #farright enough & will double down their cosy relationship with #OneNation. #auspol

An arrogant Bridget #SportsRorts McKenzie is quick to throw around claims of #antisemitism against the Greens or anyone who protests against Israel, but clams up when it comes to the #Islamophobia and racism of #OneNation.

Vote for CHECKS & BALANCES. Give Independents and Minor Parties a balance of power. We ALL have a Choice : Do we want the SAME? Or do we want REAL change?
Reduce the power of the major parties.
Make them LISTEN.

What? One Nation’s vote is gaining LNP’s loss? What is wrong with this electorate? I would’ve thought #racists could do worse than vote for the #LNP, but voting for #OneNation? What a Bunch of Fascist Idiots!
𓅠 Peter Dutton, stop trying to smile in public!
Peter Dutton is smiling because he's sucking-up to One Nation in a preference-swap deal for marginal seats. Peter Dutton and Pauline Hanson — and their respective political parties — are aligned on issues of racism and white supremacy.

Day 20

“spin-off of the US-based #CPAC – short for Conservative Political Action Conference – the #Sydney-based outfit described itself as a “values-based” organisation that “espouses the best of #Howard, #Reagan and #Thatcher while exploring new ideas and themes for the coming generations”.
Guests at the August event included #OneNation senator Pauline Hanson, Michelle Pearse, the CEO of the #AustralianChristianLobby, and broadcaster and soon-to-be alleged sex offender, #AlanJones.
Overseas talent included Jay Aeba, chairman of the Japanese Conservative Union and Heather Wilson, mother of six and co-founder of #GiveSendGo, a #Christian #crowdfunding network which has helped raise money for #NeoNazis and #AntiVaxxers”
“Then, in 2018, investment banker and long-time #ClimateConspiracist Maurice Newman, billionaire storage king Sam Kennard, and David Adler, of the #FarRight Australian Jewish Association (AJA), got together to form #AdvanceAustralia. Money was no problem: #HedgeFund manager and #Liberal Party donor Simon Fenwick tipped in $190,000; a further $400,000 came from Sydney #Establishment couple Rodney and Judith O’Neil, and the Taylor #winemaking family.
Advance pitched itself as a champion of the #SilentMajority – #HowardsBattlers 2.0. But its real concerns were better expressed by another early backer, #hotelier James Power, who was then engaged in a battle to prevent women from becoming members of #Brisbane’s #Tattersall’s Club.”
If you noticed a darker turn to the election this week, here’s a good explanation of the WHY and HOW. Also I see Tony 
got a new job.

Well, that does it for me. The "Clive and Pauline Party" definitely pushes USPol temporarily off the stage for a round of #AusPol today 
" [Palmer] announced his new party Trumpet of Patriots [that] believes in Donald Trump’s policies to make Australia great again, and will emulate Elon Musk’s efforts to cut government waste (SMH).
"Palmer said a request from Hanson to be party president for life torpedoed the agreement."
This is good. This is sensible.
Justice Stewart has allowed that statements by Pauline Hanson made outside of the Senate Chamber can be entered as evidence in a long-running racial vilification case brought by Mehreen Faruqi after Hanson told her to "Piss off back to Pakistan" in 2023.
They include statements made by Hanson on X and outside Parliament House. The feelings of others affected by Hanson's statements, and the opinions of racism experts, can also be used as evidence.
Hanson, who declined to take part in the non-judicial Human Rights Commission complaints process, is claiming "Freedom of political speech" — a legal fiction in Australia.
Hopefully the lemon-sucking spiteful racist bigoted bitch will have to pay through the nose. Well, the $150,000 Faruqi is seeking by way of a donation to charity.
