This is why I just don't understand why our governments continue immigrating populations of people whose values aren't consistent with our Australian values.
Because too many people believe fake news propaganda and share West European WOKE values.
Because if they don't they would be called "far right", "pro Putin, pro Russian" and may even end with criminal conviction like Marine Le Pen in France or Pauline Hanson here.

So "Know your place, shut your face" is the way in politics".

:c I've never been good at shutting my face.

I watched the entire 1 hour Leaders debate:

Neither leader had a knockout blow.
They just repeated well rehearsed populist answers to every question.
I missed it. No great loss lol. Funnily enough, and I can't believe I'm saying this, Albo hasn't done too badly and I'm pretty sure he'll get a second term.

The only thing he's been really really bad at is keeping Casanova Bowen along with his damaging and insane green policies.

Dutton has been uninspiring.

Sportsbet now has Labor in a clear lead:

Labor   1.34

Coalition   3.37

Very true.

Nor would I want to be a campaign prop, muppet , representative of a company of frauds who claim to be human though are lacking in humanity.

Dutton presents as stilted and looks like he's very angry.

Poor bugger, has he had a face transplant?

No facial expressions, very difficult to read.

Albo is just a weak little ALP union turd, he lacks humanity and cares only about feathering his own nest.

Shame, would be nice to have a PM that was likeable, did more than follow party protocol like a robot.

Still, I'd take Dutton over Albo, we need a Liberal government in power to manage what's coming.
ALP are under the control of the Greens

It's still early days, and sportsbet itself have been known to be wrong. Especially when there's still weeks to go before the election.

They've been known to change their odds when it draws closer to the election.

Remember Bobby, betting markets didn't get Trump 2016 right.

So....

I think this particular election will be difficult to decide, even with betting markets because there's still a lot of voters yet to decide.
A lot can happen in 4 weeks.
A heinous act of terrorism even?

Perhaps then, Dutton might pull out his Cop badge and promise to restore some order. Horrible that it takes a tragedy to get us humans doing much of anything these days.

Notice how our L-wing media have been under- reporting crime lately, it's not that they're busy with the election, they still have crime reporters needing to pay bills.

I think Duttons saving his best spruik till last, the last week or so.

Makes sense, we want our undecided voters to have something important as crime fresh in their minds at the polls.

I think Duttons still got potential, he's not cocky like Albo, and Australians will find Duttons practicality and more serious demeanour reassuring when the time comes.

Given Labor has dropped the ball re- Antisemitic rhetoric, for want of not offending their Palestinian friends, "suck-holling" in key- electorates , should this backfire in their faces, like another Lindt Cafe saga, this would be enough to remind Australians that national security is important, and to stop voting with their feet.

The Liberal party is unpopular because it's considered the "fun police" in modern lifestyle obsessed Australia, but when something serious happens, we know exactly what party we need.

Not Labor!
