Well, the Strylians have re-elected their left-wing Labor Party by an even larger majority than last time, so clearly they’re happy with Comrade Albanese, his fellow-travelers and their Red & Green policies.
No doubt they’ll combine massive anti-Trumpism with pleas for the US to help them fend off Chinese imperialism in southeast Asia.
Plus ça change, etc. Hell, even the Brits are showing signs of coming to their senses — but the Strylians? Forget abaht it, it’s just head-in-the-sand time, pour another beer on the barby and whine about the Poms beating them at cricket.
Useless fucking wankers.
My Loyal Readers from Oz — and there are quite a few — probably feel even worse about the situation than I do.
I saw that the Reform party did well in Great Britain. How do they fall on the political spectrum?
In US terms, Reform is slightly-conservative Democrat.
Do we have reason to believe that the Marxists-down-under actually won? I’m not confident that we’ve had a legitimately elected “Democrat” (aka: DemonRat) in the US in decades, especially not after the fustercluck of the 2020 farce. Why should the Left be any more respectful of the voters in Oz than they are here?
……..probably feel even worse about the situation than I do.
You are not wrong Kim.
Flood the country with third world layabouts, promise them a bagful of free stuff on your children’s credit card and then retire to your multi million dollar beachside retreat.
Rinse and repeat.
If Oz didn’t have humungous amounts of iron ore, gold and other minerals, we would be another economic basket case.
Electing these socialist idiots over and over again is leading a once great country to becoming the supplicant trash of Asia.
Poor fella my country.
