Opposition Leader Peter Dutton said the victory was because people were “fed up” with increasing cost of living pressures.
I hardly think a safe Coalition seat remaining with the LNP is evidence of much of anything, Dutton.
Cost of living pressures that are the fault of a worldwide pandemic, a war on the other side of the world, neoliberal policies, and policies that the LNP brought in and actively fought against reforming (capital gains reforms, inheritance tax, degradation of Medicare, etc)
Get fucked Voldemort.
I get so pissed off at people who don’t realise this and even more so at Dutton and the lnp for assisting this message
I hate how disconnected people are from politics - if we weren’t so accepting of their bullshit or if they weren’t allowed to put out ads I think we would have more independents
I assume there is a large boomer population on the Gold Coast. Lots of retirees.
Older demographic and few migrants = conservative. And:
Labor has never won a federal seat which is entirely Gold Coast-based, according to ABC election analyst Antony Green.
