I reckon the Liberal party is toast.
My bets are the nationals end up defecting for One Nation.
With luck the Teals will fill the Liberal power vacuum, because let's face it, they're Liberals who believe gay people and climate change exist. They hate the working class the same amount.
They'd slot right into the voter base.
At least politics will overall shift less conservative.
Maybe Labor will actually do something other than tinkering around the edges for a change. (Some positive stuff, a bunch of meh stuff, and some of really, really terrible stuff out of them this term).
Hopefully they actually make massive gains for the working class like they did many, many decades ago now.
They're a centre-right party now, sadly :/
At least politics will overall shift less conservative.
I think we're in a good spot at the moment, outside of housing I don't have any real complaints, but the pendulum swings and it looks like when it next swings right the red head or someone in her party may end up in power which is a bit of a worry
There's a chance the teals could turn into something of a Reform UK, if ON is our version lord save us
lol, shooting each other in the foot. A few weeks ago, Albo looked shaken. Now he looks solid by comparison.
I always thought that the Nationals were the crazy ones in the Coalition, but lately....
The Nats are the toxic friend that, no matter how hard you try to appease, keeps finding ways to undermine and put you down.
Most people distance themselves from these types by their late 20s. The Liberal party should learn to do the same.
