Federal Politics

for sure! yay! So happy!

Hasn’t she got another 3 years or something in the senate?

If Labor somehow manage to lose the 2019 Federal Election, I think we’ll almost certainly see a leader change.

Like many others, the highlight of the night so far is Tony Abbott losing his seat after 25 years! Although Tony was probably nearing the end of his time in federal politics anyway…

Yeah. We’ll wait until 2022

ALP doing poorly in NT as well. If they fall the Libs will form a majority.

This is a disaster for them.

Kristina Keneally?

We need a strong, sensible, centrist 3rd party…and not run by a fat bastard or red headed clown.

Bill can fuck off. Take ScoMo with you. Two unworthy leaders if ever I’ve seen them.

She can’t because she’s in the senate.

It will be either Albanese or Plibersek.

Peter Van Onselen calling coalition win.

:smiley::smiley::smiley::smiley::smiley::smiley::smiley:

Very interesting to have heard the almost arrogance from Labor that they had this in the bag and to now hear them have a very sudden fall back to earth. Elections can’t be predicted safely. Happy TA is gone and my parents are certainly very happy, they’re about to retire next year and stood to lose heaps under Labor’s super changes.

Holy Hell Coalition on the way to a Majority.

Going to be a fight for Bills Job now. Albo and Tanya.

Tony Abbott congratulates Zali on her win and the room is filled with boos.

Zali Steggles pays tribute to Tony’s service and the room is filled with applause.

Says it all really.

As expected. His time is clearly up.

So Clive’s noisy QLD campaign effectively has given ScoMo another term.

He was noisy everywhere!

I only said a few months ago, and got laughed at and ridiculed, to not look too much at the polls. They mean fuck all.

The Libs are already celebrating.
