Nationals split from Coalition as Sussan Ley says Liberal party’s door ‘remains open’ Liberal sources say National party gave Ley less than an hour’s warning of their decision

"Former Liberal MP Jason Falinski had advocated for a split ...noting the Liberals have been all but wiped out in the major cities and voters were turned off by the party’s views on climate change"...when even that clown gets...Bye Nats 👋

Australia’s bi-party status is over

People: The Coalition are horrible and incompetent!
Same people: I also think they keep the ALP accountable lol

Joined up thinking is helpful, mates.

What do these Liberal Leaders have in common?

Menzies, Holt, Gorton, McMahon, Sneddon, Peacock, Howard, Hewson, Downer, Nelson, Turnbull, Abbott and Dutton.

They all held seats that are no longer represented by the Liberal Party.

Outlived his career by several years though...

Six months from now the Nats are going to lean into Family Court Dad Energy so hard

Bridget McKenzie says that the Nationals walked away because they'd been asked to abandon...'policies that we had fought for, that only a few weeks ago, we fought an election on," McKenzie says.'

And lost.

So the Nationals have said they're not listening.

Yeah, having second thoughts about that one tbh...but on the other hand quotas would have lifted the quality of candidates...but yeah I take the point.

Yeah, fair enough, thinking about it again, I guess I should have said if they'd accepted that as the sensible way forward but the reason they never did so was because there's was a bunch of them who never would.

Please explain to me like I am a five-year-old why Senator Corey Booker voted to confirm convicted felon Charles Kushner

Reading coverage of the Victorian Budget and seriously, we give far too much credence to the wrecked and corrupt ratings agencies that helped cause the GFC and suffered absolutely zero consequences.

Oh no, they're spending extra GST revenue on health instead of paying down debt.

Yeah f*ck off.

The folks at Fox News completely freaked out and made up a bunch of nonsense after former FBI director James Comey posted an image of seashells that spelled out '8647'. The police code for homicide in many jurisdictions is 187. The police code 10-86 means officer on duty

So if you suddenly try to break into Congress to murder the VP you've supported for 4 years because he won't break the law and the police shoot you, your family gets 5 million dollars?

Do I have that right, humans?

Deal high street on Saturday. Places become so much more pleasant and humane when we prioritise people over cars

I'd have him back but would rather a couple of forwards to be honest.

Banging on about merit whilst continually preselecting mediocre blokes was always a recipe for disaster...

a man in a black shirt is making a funny face while sitting at a table . ALT: a man in a black shirt is making a funny face while sitting at a table .

Chris Uhlmann trying to work out how renewables caused this....

If the LNP had put a quota system in when Labor did they'd at the very least still be a viable opposition...

Yikes.

The UK is why you *never* fall for the line that "oh well at least they're better than the Conservative being in charge"

No. They can actually be worse.

Defending a party just because they are not the other mob, regardless of what they do, is the excuse of supporters of evil.

I haven't been on the socials much I had assumed all the COVID zeroes and OzSage attention seekers had slunk away, so I went for a scroll through Henry's recent posts...oh boy...still as batty as ever. Lockdowns are apparently still good and fun instead of a necessary evil best avoided if possible.

The Art of Omission: Trump Erased Human Rights and Ethics Concerns from His Middle East Coverage Trump shared manipulated articles to his Truth Social platform, omitting critiques and geopolitical realities to craft a glowing portrayal of his diplomacy

🚨 Trump has started posting manipulated articles on Truth Social again.

These articles list the outlet, writer(s), and title, but cut away all the stuff Trump doesn’t like.

Trump doesn’t tell his followers about the deletions. www.meidasplus.com/p/the-art-of...

Was thinking of doing a new emergency cartoon but bugger it, I'm just going to sit back and enjoy the national schadenfreudgasm

Fuck. We really caught the car didn't we?
