It's just too complicated. I would dearly like to see the end of compulsory voting and particularly compulsory preferential voting.

Interesting analysis. But Taylor, like Albanese, seems obsessed with tearing down Hanson. Typical duopoly behaviour - only have eyes for each other.

Taylor should more be tearing down Albanese and his dreadful front bench. The most ideological and divisive government we've ever had, lecturing us from on high for DEI, fake cohesion, mass migration, and UN net zero. Voters who disagree with them are branded as Not Who We Are.

Yes Steve. I don't understand why the Coalition is unwilling to cooperate with One Nation to rid us of our number one enemy, the most Communistic and incompetent government we have ever had. It seems that the prediction that the major parties would gang up on One Nation is true.

It will be Liberals second to last and Labor last for me in our cranky preferential system.

ttbn,
As the situation is right now, I'd say this is the only way to vote at the next election. It is said that immigration numbers are being reduced but I wonder how true that is in actual fact. The illogical increase of non-contributing migrants is the problem, not migrants in general.
One Nation is at this stage talking about a 130,000 ceiling & as long as they're young working migrants & not old parents & relatives then that makes more sense than the present shamozzle.
ALP/LNP are clearly totally out of touch with reality however, the question is why ? What causes them to think the way they do ? Are they thinking at all ? Who is advising them ? Surely they can't all be that dazed , or can they ? Are they being threatened & scared ? The latest Visa mess regarding backpackers appears to reduce their numbers & throwing the farming community into turmoil. Neither major party appears to be blessed with any common sense or is it as I suspect a cunning manipulation to flood the country areas with the hordes of incompatibles by pretending to fill the farm worker shortage ? The actions of A?P/LNP are certainly fertile ground for conjecture !

I think you should face the truth.
We can live a comfortable life every day.
This is not by accident.
It is planned.
And somebody planned it.
The government we selected does just that.
I know that nothing is perfect.
And there will always be 'wrinkles' in the fabric of our society.
But overall, our society does work quite well.
And we should be an active part of it.
Which includes voting to select our representative government.
And aiming for cohesion rather than conflict.

Indyvidual,

The immigration ‘reduction’ is another lie. In the financial year to June ‘26, net permanent and long term overseas arrivals was 476,870 - higher than any other financial year on record.

The talk about future numbers is nonsense: One Nation says 130,000, and Liberals say it theirs would be based on how many houses were available.

What rot! Numbers should relate only to what is NEEDED by Australia.
