My first thought is that extreme ends of the political system have
swapped ends.
The right especially hard right are now hard left and use the name
antifad. They even dress in "Black Shirts" ala Mussolini's Black shirts.
They are in fact the Fascists. eg Deutscher Socialist Arbight Parti. ie NAZIs.
Those that were towards the left previously and who used to rabbit on
about civil rights etc have now moved into the middle of the right wing.
I think many who were disillusioned will return to the Liberal Party.
It just needs Scomo to listen more and jump on people who are trying
to shut up people just because they say thing "they" do not like.

The Greens, well that joke has worn thin especially if these latest
scientific findings that Global Warming is a natural cycle and CO2
is not a problem gets confirmed.

My view will confront yet it is my honestly well thought out view The recent election saw Labor offer very strong Social policies
Voters rejected them, but too many rejected Bill Shorten yes and rejected us and the greens
Liberals however won the worst election for them to win
Always the party of self entitlement, they have forgotten [as seen in jobs for the boys and girls] voters remember
The water and grass scandals, will further damage them
Labor, understanding only from the government benches will they achieve anything, will see they must follow the voters not the very left
As we near our next GFC would rather be in Labors shoes than Liberals

Jesus Foxy, they just won yet another unwinnable election. Yet here you are talking about their demise.

Sure their policies aren't what they were back in the day, but then no parties policies are such. Times change. Parties keep up. You ought to try as well.

Its always amused me that the supporters of the losing party, immediately after the election, start telling the winners that they really have to implement the losing policies if they want to remain in power. Its like the losing AFL team instructing the winners how to kick straight.

I didn't vote Lib this time, but I know that they won because the electorate trusted their leadership to hold a safe course while they worried that the Labs were heading down a dangerous path.

"the Liberal Party needs a Coalition to stay
in power."

Conservative parties have had coalitions to form government every election since 1922.

1922
1922. A hundred years ago. And Foxy thinks its a sign of weakness.

Honestly Foxy, if you're not 101% sure of your 'facts' please don't mention them. It demeans your arguments and I'm so weary of having to point out the errors.

They've formed government with like-minded parties for a century and I suspect they'll continue to do so. If I were you I'd be much more concerned about the Labs. Albo needs to find a way to drag the party back to the centre, but will outrage the left of his party by doing so. And they are very much of the 'Crash through or crash' mentality.

We consistently hear on the news the problems of
the Liberal Party. We heard all the disunity,
the in-fighting, the plots, the scheming, to get
rid of a leader prior to the election, the number
of resignations, of people leaving in disgust.
Dirty politics all round.

We hard about -

The need to attract more younger
voters, and women, the need to give more variety to
pre-selection candidates, female assault complaints,
money laundering at the Casino in Melbourne, and
political donations from Chinese members of the
communist party, and others, dual citizenship accusations,
corruption, water issues, sex scandals, and lately of -
allowing extremists, political career bigots like
the Right-Wing Raheem Kassam to come to Australia.

The list goes on.

Is politics a football game or should it be a united
entity - implementing the best policies in the
interests of the nation?

Most people want to know that their government is getting
on with the job of governing and running the nation.
They don't want to see more internal and external problems.

Can Scott Morrison deliver us from the recent scourges
the country has experienced?

The Liberal Party has been elected for a variety of complex
reasons. However it is now up to them to show the voters
will they be able to deliver good governance for all
Australians as promised.

I believe in generational change in the Liberal
Party. It is time for the young people of
talent and ability, of whom there are many, to
be given their go in the Liberal Party.

And also for women.

The Liberal Party can't continue to keep losing
really good and talented people like Julie Bishop
and others.

I remember a journalist asking Peter Costello's wife
Tanya, " Mrs Costello, cam I ask you what you think of
your husband's decision?" When Peter Costello resigned.

She replied:

" CJ Dennis, the well known and well-loved Australian
poet wrote in a series of poems entitled the Songs of
the Sentimental Bloke the following lines, and I think
that's where I am and where Peter is:

Yeh live, yeh love, yeh learn, an'when yeh come
To square the ledger in some thortful hour,
The everlastin'answer to the sun
Must allus be, 'Where's sense in gettin'sour?'

Livin' an' lovin - so life mooches on."

That's where the Liberal Party also is currently.

Foxy,

For all the issues with the coalition, the fact that the coalition won yet again indicates how bad the labor opposition must be!!

The problems labor have is the corruption in QLD labor, the subservience of all labor governments to the corrupt and lawless unions, the tax and spend policies that pillage retirement savings, the wildly illogical climate change policies that will ruin the economy, etc.
