I'm not sure the ratbag lefties agree with you
Minns was in their sights after Bondi because he outclassed Albanese
Malinauskas is definitely in their sights over Abdel-Fattah

But, they are ferals, and I agree with you, so all good :-BD


Doesn't have any impact, they won't vote Liberal so they'll vote Green who pass them to Labor anyway.

Don't tell them that - they think people on X care about what they say.

That’s Jimmy’s point, Minns and Mali are too centralist for the (more lefter) lefties, but they loved Comrade Dan. :D

Interesting read :

Robert Nioa (Bob Katter’s son-in-law) is the CEO of NIOA, the largest private firearms importer in the country. We’re talking hundreds of millions of dollars in hardware moved every year. That’s a vested interest so large it needs its own security clearance.
So what happens the moment Australians start talking seriously about gun reform?
Out slithers Bob, screaming about “Labor!” like someone stole his hat and ate his mango.
Here's What Bob Wants You to Believe...
That the Bondi shooter’s licence was some kind of Labor-engineered loophole.
Reality? The entire application, assessment, and background process occurred under the NSW Liberal Government.
Labor simply inherited the bureaucratic parcel and rubber-stamped what had already been greenlit.
It’s like if Government A built a rickety bridge, Government B took office a month before it opened, then Bob started blaming Government B when the bridge collapsed.
But Here’s What Bob’s Not Telling You...
In 2015, one of the shooters applied for a firearms licence and refused to provide photo ID. It should’ve ended there.
In 2019, ASIO investigated the son for links to extremism. Nothing stopped.
So unless Labor has time travel on its books, this mess belongs to a broken system, enabled by a compliant industry, defended by politicians with financial connections, and now deflected by a bloke whose family literally profits from gun sales.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

The only thing more embarrassing than Bob Katter are the inbred Queenslanders who vote him in each time...

Was thinking yesterday about the way the Coalition decided to announce their split on the day of national mourning for the victims of the Bondi terror attacks because they couldn't agree with the government on how to go about avoiding these attacks in the future.

That's how f*cked they are.

Could the Nats end up looking at linking up with the ALP?

That would be entertaining

They’ll never be able to form their own government, they need someone to “tack onto”

Maybe Pauline might get a call so they can reform with Barnaby.

They’ll ‘link up’ again with the Libs, they are irrelevant without them and have always been over represented in cabinet based on the number of seats they hold.

The Libs can’t form govt without the Nats, so they’ll kiss and make up sometime, probably after Ley and Littleproud are removed.

One Nation are just a sideshow that will cannibalise the Lib/Nat vote rather than add anything useful to the conservative side.
