Gillard should go!

[Sky Pilot]

Anna Bligh was magnificent during the Queensland floods but it made SFA difference at election time ...

She started from a long way back though.

[Roxy the Rat Girl]

True, the Bligh Government was annihilated, Labor humiliated, and even though Campbell Newman's Government is having a few problems at present, the chance of a return to power for Labor is near on impossible given the 70 or so seat advantage held by the LNP. Voters have long memories, at least in Queensland they do.

[Roxy the Rat Girl]

She started from a long way back though.

They only won seven seats so without the floods they might not have won any! Now that would have been an annihilation.

[am Bays]

Julia is being expertly managed into carefully scripted and choreographed appearances at all the brushfire sites so watch her approval rating go up. Not sure what the Lib strategy is but they should be doing something surely?

Spot on SP. She is playing that card well.

Her approval rating will go up after this bush fire disaster.

Liberals must do something soon.

Bit hard for Tone to do "push the flesh" at all the bushfires, he's a NSW FRS volunteer, so he is probably out fighting a fire rather than getting in the way looking for cheap votes.

Yes he is out driving a fire truck at the moment.

He is working on the front line to battle them.

It is better than a pat on the back and a hand shake.

[The Sleeping Giant]

Some of you lot really let politics warp your views.

He's on fire watch at Nowra for christ's sake

Whereas Julia's head is on fire





I wonder if she'll stage another desperate save by the secret service to really rack up the votes

[woodublieve12]

i can't seem to find the 'Abbott must go thread'? or the thread 'both leaders must go'.

I know gillard isn;t good, but surely she's the best option out of the two. Abbott is a fair peanut.

i know this has nothing to do with the bushfire discussion...

[Q.]

We'll make an 'Abbott must go' thread in November

[overloaded]

She started from a long way back though.

The Labor party is dead in Qld, they will be irrelevant for 20 years. Fed labour will lose a lot of seats up there

So Tony won't be expecting your vote then? That leaves Gillard or Greens or some equally as irrelevant independent for you to tick off on voting day.

probably, but politics can be unpredictable.

[Roxy the Rat Girl]

I would be hesitant to call the independents irrelevant given they hold the balance of power in Federal Parliament at present. You can argue the pros and cons of this but either way it seems pretty damn relevant to me.

We are talking the next election when the Independents will be totally irrelevant and hopefully so will the loopy Greens.

The Loopy Greens are likely to pick up votes from disenfranchised Labour voters.

[dedja]

I doubt it ... the Greens have taken traditional Labor votes in the past by they have most likely peaked.

Yes because voting for either party will make a huge difference.
