Individual,

The state of Victoria is one of the most progressive
states in this country. Victorians overwhelmingly
endorsed a positive and optimistic plan for their
state by electing Labor. They rejected the "low
road of fear and division." Whether the rest of the
country will follow suit in May next year at the
federal election remains to be seen. Political
commentators are predicting that unless the Liberal
Party changes its outmoded political tactics - their
chances of winning the next election are pretty slim.

You need to remember that the party that Menzies
founded was not the party of today. It was a
"broad church." It was a "Liberal" party. Not a
right-wing conservative party. If the Liberal
party continues to "play" to the segment of its party
that is far to the right of the electorate, it will
not only alienate others (like Julia Banks - who's
left the party and many others who may follow) but it
will not only lose the election - it will crumble as
a party.

Individual in the strangest way mirrors the very right in Liberalism.
They like he, refuse to see true Liberals still exist, and they do not want a bar of the new right
No one tried to answer how many votes are won, or lost, by no real commitment to climate change
How many do not see safe schools as a threat
It is Trump like to think voters are grubs for not thinking as you do
This country, maybe the world, is headed for a financial crisis, it may come before Morrisons May election
That would see near death for Conservatives

Dear Belly,

Their Party's future is in their own hands.
Not to change will be their own downfall.
Those leaving will form their own parties.

//Who cares about Labor's victory the important thing is that the Greens got a drubbing.//

Well Issy, if 10% is a drubbing. What do you call the 0.7% scored by your mob, The Shooters and Hooters Party, a blood bath? What are you expecting now in Victoria? Koala hunting season to operate 365 days a year? Your good buddies the hoons from the hooters, to be able to carry on their destructive stupidity, not just in national parks, but in all parks.
I can just picture it now; The hoons up front doing doughnuts around the kiddies playground (park) in the souped up 4WD mega truck, Issy and the rest of the shooters gang hanging out the back taking pot shots at the poor little koala's as they play on the monkey bars!

Surely any reader can see it is my view, after reform the task of beating a small l Liberal party may be just too hard
That I am not posting anti Liberal propaganda but what I truly think is their best way forward
They KNOW they have a problem with women
They too know branch stacking in an effort to put the right in every seat is on
They over value their own dislike of Shorten
That, over valuing your own position,, and undervalueing your opponents is not bright
Yes the word *climate change* makes conservatives itch all over,
But surely they can see THEIR base, true base, wants action?

'They KNOW they have a problem with women'

they certainly do. Ones who have been promoted above their compentecy levels are still crying the victim status. Look at the sooks throwing tantrums and trashing their own party. They are a disgrace. I think Abbott had it right by only having one in the cabinet and look at her sniping and tantrums now from the backbench.
