Wow... Farage has somehow managed to make himself even more of a waste of time and resources

South Australian election AND the #Matildas in the Asia Women's Cup finals to watch on Saturday night! Football/Soccer matches usually less than 2 hours. I have a feeling that the SA election will be called in a similar amount of time... #SAVotes #SApol #AusPol #WACAUS2026 #WAC2026

Is this the first Greens mayor in Australia, or just the NT?

(2/3) I've put a google sheet with the numbers and some slightly thorough analysis of the data on this post. Disclaimer: I am not a professional. I dont have any relevant qualifications. I did this purely for fun and out of interest, so please take this with a grain of salt. It may be slightly off.

(1/3) After following the Tassie election, I wondered what the ACT Parliament would look like with 7-member electorates, like Tasmania, instead of the current 5-member ones, so I tried punching the numbers, and here's what I got: 🔴 ALP 13 🔵 LIB 13 🟢 GRN 5 ⚫️ IFC 3 🟠 FCI 1 #actpol #auspol

There's a very low bar at the moment, but this could be the stupidest take on anything ever. #Auspol

As part of federal elections, people are voting for a local MP that could go on to help form a national government. At this point though it is just "do you want a liberal or teal representing you in parliament" if it went to a supplementary election. Bradfield can't change the government outcome.

“What the hell just happened?” wasn’t the triumphant song of the contest, but it was the defining slogan #Eurovision

The size of the Israeli campaign this year is a direct proof of one thing - Israel should no longer be part of EBU. Israel doesn't have free media, their broadcaster is a part of propaganda, and they're not eligible for Eurovision. They're putting every single artist between a rock and a hard place.

Thrilled beyond words that #Iceland and #SanMarino qualified for the final at #Eurovision! I'll admit I wasn't the biggest fan of either at first but they've become some of my favourites this year, especially VÆB, they're so lovable and positive. 🇮🇸🇸🇲

They're actually just the Democratic Labour Party but under a new name for WA elections. Probably full of that type of person, I'm sure.

I've heard of Fusion before, I definitely like what I see from them, though I doubt they'll run many candidates at next year's federal election.

If you paid any tax in 2022-23, you paid more than all of these multinational gas corporations did on $36 BILLION income, exporting Australian gas from QLD. Really makes you think. #auspol

What is so stupid about proposing net zero emissions by 2035, with a detailed plan to get there? What is so stupid about proposing a rent cap to help renters who may be deciding between paying rent or eating dinner?

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election. Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

Yes, stances are ethical. But if we want change, ethical stances must have power. That is political. One can be right and criticize others who aren’t, sure. And that is important. But then what? How do we flourish? We need to help the right thing win, and good people build. Electoral or not

I remember talking to an IFC candidate about the future of Light Rail in Canberra. He suggested that Canberra adopt Trackless Trams for the future 'light rail' corridors as opposed to, well, actual light rail. Safe to say I did not vote for that party.
