Unfortunately, it seems like Labor sees the Coalition falling apart as its chance to setup decades of dominance as the "sensible centre" party, rather than use the minimum two terms they now have to actually show some centre-left ambition.

It's not a slam dunk. Remember Gillard's Misogyny speech? Remember what happened after? We voted the target of that speech into power.

We were presented with the bowl of shit stew that was morrison and we said "yes please, second helping, that mister shorten is a bit of a nothing"

Don't let the dutton ejection fool you, Australian voters can be deeply, deeply stupid animals

There is absolutely no way the Coalition is winning the next election. They are basically extinct fron most major cities now and their core voter base is rapidly dying out. The Liberals been bleeding out to female teal independents over climate policy for 2 elections and a big group are STILL trying to kill emissions targets and overthrow their first ever female leader. It really cannot be overstated how fucked that party is, they are absolutely hopeless.
