According to Sportsbet

Coalition $1.72
Labor. $2.10

I was thinking $1.90 each. But they are the experts, I thought.

Their other market is for next Labor leader after t the election and after Albo. The experts are quoting $10 on Bill Shorten.

Bill just quit politics a few days ago. Very short retirement if so

I know a couple of staunch Labor blokes plus a current MP and Labor despise the Greens more than the Libs and have zero interest in aligning with them.

The greens will be struggling to hold on to their Brisbane seats, but they seem to fancy their chances of maybe picking up another one in Melb.

Thing is, they have a pretty strong grip on the senate balance of power, so an ALP minority govt is going to have to deal with them anyway. Although Albanese has made it pretty clear through his record last term that he’d rather let the Libs write his policies than come to a compromise with the Greens, so it’s quite possible that’s what’ll happen in the event of minority govt. A broad coalition of the majors on every issue except industrial relations, with the intention of locking the greens and teals out.

I was thinking about this this morning.
Can you imagine any government with that ****wit Bandt in there at the top, let alone the rest?
Australia would be better off with a deal that included some moderate Coalition members in there.
But, I doubt that will happen. Dutton will just continue to bring them down and the idiot Greens will facilitate it

If Dutton is smart (big if), he just shuts up between now and the election and he will win in a landslide with the amount of own goals Albo and labor are scoring. Incredible tilt mode.

Albo scores another own goal

Laughs at Grace Tame's shirt then the next day his PR team are in panic mode

"Albanese admitted he saw the message written on her shirt before he posed for the photo"

PM calls Grace Tame’s T-shirt stunt ‘disrespectful’
Lucy Slade

Anthony Albanese says he thought Grace Tame wearing a T-shirt with a slogan saying “F— Murdoch” to Sunday’s Australia Day event was “disrespectful”.

Tame was photographed in the T-shirt with Albanese and his fiancee, Jodie Haydon, at his Canberra residence.
Albanese admitted he saw the message written on her shirt before he posed for the photo.

When asked if he agreed or disagreed with the message on the T-shirt at a press conference in Western Australia, Albanese said, “I clearly disagree.”

“I want debate to be respectful … and that’s a choice that she made. People are allowed to express themselves, but I thought it was disrespectful of the event and of the people who that event was primarily for.”

Albanese defended his decision to pose for the photo.

“People came through. There was a queue of more than – I don’t know how many people were in the queue, around about at least 60, there was all of the Australia Day nominees, there was all of the past Australians of the Year, there was the Australia Day Council, people were just there. One by one, rolling through being welcomed.

“It was clearly designed to get attention. I don’t intend to add to that attention because I do think that it takes away from what the day should be about – which is the amazing people who were nominated as Australians of the Year.”

The thing I love about the shirt is it really got those on her side up and about.
When they are told to just ignore that media arm they seemingly can't do it. :lol: :lol:

Im not sure having the one honour board is a good idea.

I don't see an issue with having seperate honour boards.
And she's named first. What an honour.

It will be an interesting conversation if Verity Cooper comes knocking on the door
Mind you; in 23 years, not one of them has ever knocked on the door

Sturt voted about 10% below the SA average in the referendum so its not as conservative as it used to be
If Verity did a preference deal with Labor, one of them would probably get in
Or it might backfire on her
