My #schadenfreude side wants the #NationalParty to demand to have the #LNP referred to as the #NLP & claim the right to be the major party in the #COALition.

BREAKING:

#Romanian PM Marcel Ciolacu resigns after the ruling coalition’s failure in yesterday’s presidential election.

"This #coalition is no longer legitimate,” he stated.

Romania could be heading toward snap elections and a new #parliament

Now that this chapter of #AusPol has closed, Hardaker's review puts it nicely in perspective.

"When the Liberals assess the causes of their disaster they’d be tempted to dwell on the five weeks of the campaign. A better place to start would be August 24, 2018, the day Abbott finally tore down Malcolm Turnbull as prime minister.

"It was an act of pure vengeful bloodletting, led by Dutton, Abbott’s ideological twin. Even then Dutton failed to convince his party that he was fit to lead. Victory on the day went to God’s man, Scott Morrison.

"But the purge of the party was well underway. Turnbull remarked at the time that the hard-right Abbott forces would rather destroy the party than accept the views of the moderates, especially on climate change and energy.

"And so it has transpired. Abbott lost his own seat in 2019, but the hard right ploughed on, oblivious to the evidence."

Rinehart tells Coalition to lurch further towards MAGA land

Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa #MAGA Price has again raised the spectre of election integrity as the #Coalition begins to come to terms with its drubbing at the ballot box.

In an interview that grabbed attention for her fiery rebuke of an association with Donald Trump, the Country Liberal Party politician alluded to something happening at “remote polling booths” that had been reported to the Australian Electoral Commission.

#auspol The #Trump factor at work again.

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

Things Warren Entsch said on the ABC this morning:

"Well, now 80% of the population lives in 20% of the country with cities and things. And 50% of the population is women. And there are other generations not just boomers. So we have to understand that our demographics have changed"*

"[Malcolm Turnball] always was someone that he never was and tried to be someone he wasn't"

Stop putting microphones in front of men. For the love of everything good and holy!

“Israel has every right to defend itself from aid ships: Everyone knows international waters belong to Israel”

“World leaders have refused to condemn Israel for bombing a ship in international waters because that sort of thing is only bad when the Houthis do it”

#AusPol #LNP #Coalition

Was a bit rich hearing McGrath savaging the #Greens as "horrible people" when McGrath's team is universally known as The #NastyParty.

#AusPol

Based on #Coalition's metro seat numbers, they should rename the #LNP to "The Country Party"

#auspol I’ll be watching #Insiders this morning for the first time in ages.

Why? #schadenfreude (the pleasure derived by someone from another person's misfortune)

Watching the Insiders panel try to explain away a massive #Labor win will be quite enjoyable.

The Libs were the dregs of the dregs before they were wiped out last night.

They’ll need to choose a new #leader
from the few talentless survivors.

So #Putin will then have a strong incentive to keep the war going. As long as #coalition forces are at risk of being attacked by Russian forces, they will not have any presence.
The only way then is to make it so hard for #Russia to continue the war in Ukraine that it stops out of depleted supplies.

Mike Carlton: "A vote for The Thug is also a vote for the most witless, vacuous, incompetent front bench in living memory: Angus Taylor, Sussssan Ley, Barnaby Joyce, Jane Hume, Michaelia Cash, James Paterson…what an appalling thought."
