Majority government is good, they might actually get some shit done. The LNP will be very weak, like in Vic, which isn't actually great for democracy going forward, but maybe it'll convince them that they need to be less super right wing and they'll ultimately end up as a more moderate party. Maybe.
Victoria needs a new second party, would be nice to have a Vic only party instead of another federal organisation in Victoria.
Well, there is Victorian Socialists if people wouldn't be too put off by them
I have some very, very negative experiences with them man. I tried, I really did but maybe they've changed over the last 5 years.
I was more involved with them last election, I ended up being booth captain at one of the sites. Everything was pretty chill and they all seemed good. I've only dropped off because I had the boys.
Fair enough man. Glad you had a good experience. Maybe they have changed.
A moderate party that is as pro infrastructure as Labour would be more successful as an opposition.
