These articles are relevant to some of the people who were at the LUV BBQ. Your problems in rural areas are not related to Muslims and Pauline Hanson is not the solution. The biggest problems are due to Coalition policies (and admittedly Labor policies aren't much better) and the solution is to vote for people who have better economic policies and encourage your politicians to do better about the economic issues.
Somebody said it much better than I could ever do so.
LNP won because people have no faith in either major party and the more money in their own hands means that the people can make more of their own choices.
For the vast majority of the population voting for the LNP gives them less money. People have to vote against their own best interests, as described in the articles I cited.
Yes, but the "marketing angle" and the mass media angles too, represent that voting anything other than LNP will mean higher taxes -- if the taxes are lower, then the perception is that you will have more money in YOUR pocket. It won't matter if everything goes up in price to become unaffordable, you will "think" you are better off. It won't matter that health and education will cost you more, because you can self educate and self insure medically. I'm sure you can work out the names, you are quite smart aren't you? Rabbit -- Tony Abbot TurnCOST -- Malcolm Turnbull (ghost of PMs past that won't go away! MoneyBagsNZClive -- Clive Palma PleaseExplain -- Pauline Hanson. TheDud -- Peter Dutton. ScumMo -- Scott Morrision. Aren't those all self evident? Did I miss any? Cheers A
