I followed their HTV but switched AJP with them. Even a single issue electoral campaign should know better than to take the cookers at their word.
Just voted, kinda defeated the purpose as the pre-poll was packed, was trying to avoid the same chaos as the last State election day.
Gonna treat myself to a democracy pinot tonight instead of the democracy sausage on Saturday.

A democracy pinot is something a Sydney FC fan is made for. That, or a democracy Mercedes-Benz.

Yep voted earlier at Leichhardt town hall… only using a tiny room so the line was out of the door so it gave the how to vote card spruikers the chance to hassle the crap out of everyone

Need to develop a resting angry face. Mine comes naturally but does the trick to keep those types away.

I’m taking my boys to show them how the whole voting process works.
One of them is 17 so it’ll be good for him to learn how to tell the one nation lot to fuck off etc.

My favourite bit from that article:
“The Australian Doctor article quotes Tasmanian GP Dr Donald Rose as saying: “Dutton will be remembered as the dullest, least innovative and most gullible for swallowing the reforms from his thinktank … Although I am glad he has been demoted, it would have been good if he was still around to take responsibility for the current chaos he has caused.””
Good ol Squires adding nightmare inducing images of Dutton’s legs to his usual quick witted commentary

“I am employing levity” & Peter “not a monster” Dutton.
Quality Mr Squires!
We need a world wide search and replace to ensure Peter “not a monster” Dutton is used any time he’s referenced.
