Might as well put this up in the politics subforum, to spare the front page. It's 18 months away or so, but here we go.

This is how Dutton wins:

Crikey, it just gets worse and worse for the LNP.

The Sydney Morning Herald live feed:

Clive Palmer has defended the barrage of advertisements from his Trumpet of Patriots party, saying they were designed to “stimulate debate”.

“I think we’ve put forward a lot of issues through advertising that should be addressed by the political class in general,” Palmer said on Channel Seven.

Asked about the unsolicited texts sent to millions of Australians, Palmer blamed the major parties.

“It’s the Liberal and Labor Party that made it legal to do it,” he said.

- I think the only debate his texts have stimulated is how we can change the SPAM laws to include political campaigning and our data being given out to candidates.

I'm calling for a class action on those bloody Trumpet texts. Couldn't opt out!!

andy-mac Saturday, 3 May 2025 at 08:25 pm new

Old mate still saying Dutton will remain leader of lnp....

He'll be lucky to keep his seat.

Anthony Green feeling Labor increased majority....

Still early days...

andy-mac Saturday, 3 May 2025 at 08:29 pm new

AndyM Saturday, 3 May 2025 at 08:30 pm new

Dutton might lose his seat

southernraw Saturday, 3 May 2025 at 08:31 pm new

I'd almost call it @AndyM

southernraw Saturday, 3 May 2025 at 08:32 pm new

As a lifelong Labor man, regardless of the rubbish that party politics has become, i'm still pretty stoked tbh. No spud, no worries.

AndyM Saturday, 3 May 2025 at 08:37 pm new

Libs possibly getting the lowest primary vote in history

TH Saturday, 3 May 2025 at 08:37 pm new

Holy shit, Anthony Green stating that he can't see the LNP retaining more than 34 seats!
He said, if there is a late swing, maybe 50 at most.

Given the years of torment we had to endure under the Howard, Abbott and Morrison conservative governments, tonight is expecially sweet.
Be sure to sink the boot into any liberal bastard you know for the pain they've caused in those years in supporting those muppets. Fuck em.

AndyM Saturday, 3 May 2025 at 08:42 pm new

Dutton is in a world of poo.

On SBS was a statement from sky news saying they don’t think the LNP will form a majority government. Spat my coconut water everywhere.

It's staggering to watch James McGrath try to continually justify this shit show in real time.
