So tell me the difference between the Labor Party and the Coalition here

What a fuckin disgrace.

We’re just as bad as the shitcunts across the big ditch

This is what the Australian public wanted. That message was delivered very loudly between 2007 and 2013 to the point where it's now political suicide to even think about changing it. I've been very vocal about my opinions on the US and the Epstein class (same thing, right?) trying to influence our politics, but this one is entirely on the Australian public.

In this case nothing. The US has both parties by the nuts and/or ovaries and that's the way they've engineered it. We basically live in the USA and have for some time.

Yeah, I think you’re right

I have a feeling that if we were ever smart enough to elect a Green government they’d overthrow it as well.

I’m sorry, but I’m really beginning to seriously dislike Americans. All of them too, I’m not giving them the luxury of picking out good ones from bad.

As for our majors; one I know is dogshit but I do and should expect better from Labor.

Agreed. They keep electing muppets. And the ones that say they didn’t just throw their hands up and point everywhere but to themselves.

And don’t get me started on their fanatical relationship with that little warmongering country in the Middle East. It’s just nuts.
