The Liberal Party must move left : Comments

By Peter Bowden, published 1/6/2022

The cause of the massive defeat of the Liberal Party at the recent election was indubitably the deep-seated dislike for Scott Morrison.

Hey Diver Dan,
First of all, thanks for watching my linked video.
The reason why I posted what I did wasn't specifically to bring attention so much to conspiracy theories.
- Maybe I got a little bit carried away.

When I read Peter's article the though that came to mind was the simple idea of 'Change the people = Change the Government'
Simple cause and effect.

That aside we're moving towards being ruled by foreign treaty as opposed to deciding our own future.
Alarm bells always start ringing for me whenever the government is bi-partisan.
Just recently our government was willing to hand total control for pandemic preparedness over to the WHO.
None of us were consulted about what we want.
Luckily Tedros didn't get all the power he wanted, but they will keep pushing until they get what they want.
- And it seems to be this way on many issues.

I think the Australia people don't know what's good for them anymore.
Take Allegra Spender for example, one of the teal candidates who supports green initiatives, she's CEO of the Australian Business and Community Network and supports increased immigration to 220000 per/year, and more long term.

These people want more immigrants, but we don't have the policies in place to house more people, and the costs of building them has probably now skyrocketed, they just want to make more money, at the cost of people living in cars and in tents.

I support good policies that benefit all of us, and I'm not opposed to things that are better for the environment, but not at the cost forcing families into homelessness.
I feel like the nation has become brainwashed by feel-good ideas and has become divided, polarised and lost it's way.
Inner city trendies who sip their fancy latte coffees are making choices that leave others homeless, unable to afford the cost of living.

They're still opposed to coal, when soon we'll have rolling blackouts.
I want to see some actual good policies that benefit all of us.
- But it feels like a race to the bottom.

Pauliar,

You are a political fwit. Perhaps you can point out the Labor majority in the senate?

So what is the left going to do:

Open the Gulags,
execute all non believers
nationalise everything
ban homosexuals
persecute Jews?

shonky,

You were refering to the House of Reps. There are no Teals in the Senate and were never going to be. When caught out you change your story.

Pauliar,

Good that you finally realised that Labor has no majority in the Senate and will have to deal with the pedogreens.

You are failing to wiggle out of your cock up. I meant primarily the Senate but didn't exclude the possibility of the house of reps as well. Once again your illiteracy has caught you out.

"Deepseated Dislike of Morrison" ?
Seems a bit made up to me.
Anyway, it is now becoming obvious that the whole Zero 50 is a no goer.

The whole Natural gas, oil, electricity problem might have been
triggered by the Ukraine war, but it was going to happen anyway.
It just happened to coincide with our elections.
We will have to do a refurbishment program on our coal fired stations
then repeal the silly legislation that is the nuclear ban.
No point arguing about that here as the state of the economy will
be such that there will be no point in it.

The whole argument has changed, no climate emergency, Islands getting
bigger, cyclones getting fewer, hurricanes getting fewer and both
getting milder. More rain, not less, better conditions all round.

We need more dams, and more Chinese coal fired power stations as
they are helping with the weather.
Start of cooling cycle may be here, another 10 years may well confirm it.

Given what we are rapidly learning about the total cock-ups the Coalition made during almost 10 years in office, I want them to move further to the right, in fact I want them all to move so far to the right that they all fall off the Gap! Very soooon.
