I'm just really relieved weve not headed in the direction of America. I'm under no illusion about the ALP, they are far from perfect. But now we're a hell of a lot further away from heading down the same path as the U.S.

110%. That's what I'm celebrating. The ALP ain't perfect ( hell, they weren't even my first vote) but gosh so happy this is the result here.

03.05.2025 12:28 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Yes, fair call. Dutton set an incredibly low bar.
I do have more hope that the ALP will turn shit around. I guess time will tell.

Are you saying that's what we've done by Labor winning?
I'm not saying they're perfect (far from it) but they're miles ahead of liberals.
Dutton couldn't even admit that climate change was evidently impacting Australia, he deflected to us scientists

"Australian people have voted for Australian values"
BOO YAH!!
It's a bloody landslide, 87 seats in the upper house and counting.
Can't help but feel proud that my fellow citizens sent such a clear message.
See ya never, Dutton.
Take your whack nuclear plan with you.

HUGE sigh of relief here in Australia! We've said NO to the conservatives. Actually, not just no, we've given them the middle finger and ran as fast as we could in the opposite direction.
There's no way they'll win now.
Even Dutton lost his seat....GOOOOOONE!! Byeeeee, Felicia πŸ‘‹

6yo:"mum did you go to university?"
Me [thinking this is my moment to shine & discuss how women can achieve great things]: "yes. I have the highest level of education! Its called a PhD!"
6yo: "who is the tallest person at your work?"

Clearly we're not quite ready for this type of conversation yet πŸ˜‚
