Banter Adelaide Board's Combined Politics/Covid discussion Banter Thread (WARNING NOT FOR THE FAINT-HEARTED)

So you claim to only understand and have insight to one of the major parties, good to know.

Ok so I will help you out.

My suggestion is Albo was unpopular and there has been a general shift away from the major parties to smaller parties and minor parties as the public are disillusioned with the politics of the major parties.

Do you think this is reasonable?

Now you are copying my posts on thr reduction of primary votes for both majors... as a growing third of the public don't like either major party.

Both myself & Cap are well aware as we are both part of this third of voters.

 

[George Kramer]

I really don't think you do.

The problem is your thinking is wrong

That's a part of the trend no doubt.

Doesn't explain why all the moderates abandoned the Libs.

It's like the Libs moved in a direction asy from the moderates, but we can't put on our finger on it can we.

Well hello. So there’s been a general move away from the major parties. Tick.

Now onto Albo. Has he lost them some votes?

 

[Cap]

Me a loser when all you got is deflection...Have another try tryhard.

Great comeback

Such a smart boy.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Haven’t ignored anything, perhaps you can have a crack

You have been ignoring his & my explanations, so why would I bother again..

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

0.5% last I saw... which is minimal compared to 5.7% loss for ScoMo, given how they flow back for 2PP with a 3.4% swing.

Did Labor moderates lose votes to the independents and greens? What about seats to the Greens?

 

[Mutineer]

Don't need to be very clever to have you covered tryhard.

 

[George Kramer]

So the hatred for ScoMo lost them a shit load of votes and a general move away from the majors…..

So how about that move right that cost them votes….. what percentage are you putting down for these factors?

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

A concerted campaign financed by Simon Holmes a Court's $$$$$'s and the hundreds of Get Up operatives that did the leg work for him.

So it was all about money & nothing to do with policy?

If it were that simple, Palmer would be PM... yet didn't get a single seat lol.

Very simplistic thinking...

 

[Cap]

Don't need to be very clever to have you covered tryhard.

Haha.

That's the best you got.

Can you give me any better? Or haven't go thesaurus ready?

It must be hard, I mean knowing everyone thinks you are an idiot, just to jump in to claim someone else's internet points only to make your self look like a idiot again.

Surely all that rage has something better?

Both are factors as all good political commentators have mentioned.

No one has put a % on each as it's impossible given they are interrelated too!

 

[Mutineer]

Rattled much!!

So what we can agree on ScoMo was hated and there was a general move away from the majors.

Now without confirming any change of policy direction right, how can you say this was a factor? You’ve got 2 very strong other reasons as per above to explain the result.

 

[Slippery Pete]

So, Dutton, thoughts?

Lol, I have already mentioned this in countless posts & you are not listening.... so I'm not wasting any more energy on answering this question for the umpteenth time when you have your fingers in your ears...

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

So, Dutton, thoughts?

One or my most hated politicians... who if elected as leader will only send them further backwards... which isn't good for democracy as we need a strong opposition.

 

[Cap]

Rattled much!!

Me, heck no.

I have to deal with smart people all day.

Interacting with people like you gives me something different

Ah, but it won't make them move right of course.

Maybe vibe it?

Haha and that just proves it....you're rattled big time tryhard.

 

[Slippery Pete]

The fact that Mao McGowan hates Dutton is enough for me to really like him.

Now we just need Dictator Dan to come out and slam him, and I’ll be completely sold.

 

[Cap]

Haha and that just proves it....you're rattled big time tryhard.

You know when you need to say it twice, it's usually a projection.

Are you ok? Need a break?

 

[Cap]

I give it a couple of weeks max, cannot see Dan Andrews liking Dutton.

Dutton is going to be your man.

 

[George Kramer]

So when I mentioned the teals targeting the Libs and weakening them as being a bad outcome for democracy going forward, that was actually right, you need a strong opposition.
