Foxy last night on the ABC we saw a fact I have been denying, runner and such as he, are part of the LNP, we saw others like him expressing views voters just do hold, and requesting a push to an extreme right, middle Australia rejected, try has hard as you like outside QLD to find support for Anning, but you will find only contempt,the chook pen election by removing so many crossbenchers will re-enforce my statement, the far right will in time, waste away, until it does it inflicts great harm on the true Liberal party

Dear Belly,

«Anthony Green highlighted all the crossbenchers will need to be reelected in this next election, and that new laws will not see that take place»

No, there is nothing in the law against electing small parties: not only is this completely legal, but even made easier as I will rank all small parties first, above the line - and will advise my friends to do the same.

Anything to disrupt the one big ruling party that masquerades as two, is a good thing.

Dear Aidan,

«Now the fight against gay marriage is lost, what good would more conservatives do?»

Protect religious freedoms.

(though I doubt they really care about religion, they only care about their own, established, Christian churches)

Dear Belly,

Bob Katter put in a poor showing last night. He came
across as a man not to be taken seriously. From what
I could see the politicians just don't seem to be
listening to the concerns of the people. This will
not stand them in good stead at the next election.

Hi Foxy and Belly,

I watched Q&A last night. Firstly I most strongly object to the biased right wing ABC, they had three from the Nazi's Bob Katter, Pauline Hanson and George Christensen, but only two Communists Cathy O’Toole and Larissa Waters, on the panel, shameful bias on their part. I almost had to turn over to 'Sky Channel' to get some decent unbiased comment from Paul Murray, Peta Credlin and Andrew Bolt. They don't pander to the rabid right, they are the radid right! It was obvious to me that the two Commo's have a secret agenda to make North Queensland into a Provence of Communist China. They did not actually say that, but us of the rabid right can read between the lines on these things, and we know. I know some from the Nazi's would like to see North Queensland a separate state, but it would only be for us god fearing good christian white folk, no riffraff allowed!

I partially like the way the Mad Katter spoke, he was so calm and reasoned in his answers! However Bob did get one thing wrong, he said the were 840,000 undesirables entering the country last years. That's wrong Bob, by my personal calculation the actual number was 78,983,627 give or take one or two, and they were all Muslim illegals! Turnbull has been hiding them all in his mansion at Point Piper, its big enough. Don't worry Prime Minister Dutton will flush them out.

yuyutsu you manage to confuse me and sometimes yourself, my question was based on Anthony's statement that new electoral laws [it was easier to win a senate seat in the DD election] would see crossbenchers fail this time. Paul 1405 Foxy, yes hard as it is to except the very right best serve the ALP and other not so lost parties by constantly reminding us they are forever a minority

Interestingly, whenever I hear the name 'Greens' it reminds me of a group of social misfits filled with a toxic regard to anything that might improve Australia or Australian's. I can understand some components of Labour ideology and some of their policies. But the Greens should be renamed the Detritus Party; their policies are rubbish; their ideology are composed of ordure; and their political aspirations are essentially in the commode.

And I can only hope, the bruised & battered Conservatives, will closely adhere to their closed border protection strategies, initiated firstly by Scott MORRISON and later, ably supported by Peter DUTTON. That is, if there're any true conservatives left within the LNP. As far as the PM Scott MORRISON is concerned? I guess it's a case of wait and see? Though he's shown more than a glimmer of true conservatism, with his approach to Border Protection by being the first at 'stopping the boats'.

Politically I believe the greatest threat to a stable Australia, can be found in the Greens. With their intent to vandalise sound policies, when presented in the Senate. The Green's only wish is to 'wreck' good policies emanating from the LNP and to a far lessor extent, the Labour Party. Irrespective of the merit or otherwise, contained in those policies

Remarkably when they were first formed, I would've given them my vote; had their beliefs, ethics & tenets remained firmly entrenched in the protection of our Flora & Fauna. Instead, they decided to interfere or arbitrarily block major policies of the two larger Parties, without the foggiest idea of why? Imagine if you will, installing Ms Sarah HANSON-YOUNG, as the Minister for Defence? She'd have the good folks of the TV Series, 'Sea Patrol' protecting our immense borders. Still her heart's in the right place I guess?
