For the right the next election is about renovation : Comments

By Graham Young, published 19/8/2026

One Nation and the Coalition aren't enemies, they are competitors, and competition is the best way to bring renewal.

But overall, our society does work quite well.
Ipso Fatso,
We don't know what the use-by-date is though, do we ? We can have a good guess by looking at Europe & the US to see what to expect in the near future. At least Australia still has a chance to rectify the damage from the ALP/LNP Administrations over the past 50+ years. But action is required now & even though One Nation hasn't proven their managing skills yet, the other two have already proven their lack of them. The one 100% predictable problem will be the sabotage directed at One Nation at every turn, no matter how sensible a policy may be ! There's a very lucrative band wagon rolling & LNP/ALP will grease its brakes rather than help slow it down & stop it !

One Nation’s rise isn’t primarily a problem of how the right should distribute candidates. It is evidence that a substantial part of the electorate no longer believes the traditional Coalition represents it.

Until the article explains why that happened and what the Coalition would have to change to reverse it, its proposed solution—better candidates and cooperation between the Coalition and One Nation—is incomplete, and misses the broader issues especially chronic housing shortages, mass immigration and failing infrastructure keeping pase with expansion.

The march away from LNP should be considered permanent. That one makes sense!

"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."

Because when it comes down to losing votes they stand to lose more of the conservative vote to One Nation than they will lose to progressives, and if they can't do better than One Nation, they won't even be the opposition anymore.

Why? Its because they're circling the drain.
Watch them eat each other.

And seriously, I'd rather embrace transgenders, and support the voice
and open the floodgates to another million Muslims including another 1000 ISIS brides than ever give my vote to a party that pledges loyalty to Israel.

(But I'd rather not support those things)

I'm starting to think that everything in the West was always built around Israel. Conservatives have always been the religious Christian side of politics built around support for Israel and the left was built around something other than this position.

So you lot keep on voting for Israel.
And I'll keep on voting to destroy you.

Armchair Critic,
Two wrongs don't make a Right but three wrongs ? That's just plain idiocy, just ask any European who is living the nightmare you're suggesting !

Hi Indy,
Well, I haven't actually voted that way yet, I was just mouthing off.
Making sad, pointless and pathetic threats to do so, you know.
Just to draw some attention to this situation.

But seriously why do I have to choose between Albo and his numerous crap policies and the right who align with genocidal Israel monsters like Ben G'vir and then talk down to me because of their fake 'Christians-with-Zionist-spectacles' morals.

I compared our democracy to a shite sandwich a long time ago.
This 'democracy' that we celebrate is little more than an obligation to choose which half of the shite sandwich that I want to eat, or get fined.
And obviously, no one with any brains actually wants to eat that, or get fined.

Armchair critic,
I have long said that Democracy is the worst kind of dictatorship as it allows minority groups to override the majority.
Re the israel situation I can't really say anything with certainty as I only hear from the likes of you & the antisemites on the internet. I hope One Nation gets in & literally prohibits demonstrations in Australia for causes or rather senseless happenings in other countries. Any Australians wishing to help in the Middle east should go there & stop the all the demonstrating & brainwashing our young here ! Anyone bringing these problems here should return to there where they can fight for their cause instead of causing problems here ! The problem there is that that would be democratic & the factions wouldn't accept that !
