I used to be a political junkie and I loved election campaigns. not any more.
The Opposition has been poor this campaign. i have noticed it and it has been written about ad nauseum.
Why is this sso as Julius sumner Miller said when he was alive.
I thin the Opposition wanted to surf in on the resentment against the government. They were convinced the punters were out there with baseball bats. They were being told this by media VERY friendly to them. This is clearly not true.
Dutton has always been an undisciplined politician and this has caught up with him in the campaign.
Their policies are not detailed and thus people are saying different things about the same policy.
Let us just examine some examples.
Their nukes policy is so bad they do not want to talk about it. Thus it is easy for the ALP to attack it.
They are going to sack 40k public servants in Canberra. Hang on there are only 68k . the math does not add up.
They are going to cut immigration a lot But not backpackers, not tradies ( there is a world wide shortage) so how are they going to do that. No worries those former tradies who are on the pension can work and keep the pension. how many 68 year old tradies want to work again?
When you add in a very different and highly disciplined Albo then it you can see why the Opposition is in trouble.
I do hope igf the ALP win Chalmers replaces him and Andrew Charlton becomes Treasurer.
In Bennelong Jerome Laxelle the ALp member haved from over $$ in the betting markets to favourite at $170!!
