Totally agree on that!

To have strong government we need a strong opposition.. We are in for 3 years (though I expect it may be over a decade) of these antics from that side of the floor...

I wouldn’t believe them regardless of when ‘Good Job Angus’ produces them.

They are also running away from everything & now using distraction politics of Welcome to Country/Voice/Crime etc Basically everything other than Cost of Living..

They know they are done

After last nights #LeadersDebate I knew that this week Dutton & LNP would double done on The Voice/Welcome to Country & use it to distract from a lack of actual policies & the bad performance in the Debate. This says so much about Dutton & LNP - they are not fit to run this country #auspol

So very true - even the language and interactions last night were childish. Our 12 yr old Granddaughter Debates and she could run rings around Dutton. Facts matter though he seems to think they can be blustered away..

I’ll go one step further. I have always held the belief that a good Prime Minister has a strong Treasurer - same goes for Opposition Leader and Shadow Treasurer

In the case of the LNP it’s a fail on both fronts at the moment. They have a long way to come out of the wilderness #leadersdebate #auspol

Ironic that they point the finger at Labor as being bad at financial management when the LNP numbers are rubbery and plans are no existent..

So LNP (via Patterson) is now moving the focus of the election to The Voice and rehashing everything on that. Another negative onslaught from them. They have NO PLAN #leadersdebate #auspol

Thank you - I really needed that laugh

That and trying to throw Albo off and getting him hot under the collar - funny how it worked the exact opposite way and it is Dutton who lost his train of thought and ability to actually argue

Can anyone explain how exactly Dutton is going to fund all these promises? How many years of deficit will we have? I haven’t seen the numbers.. #leadersdebate #auspol

Whilst I am left leaning I still long for the days where we had a good leader on the LNP side. This guy can’t actually debate - I now understand why he always shut down parliament. We ALL move that Dutton no longer be heard #leadersdebate #auspol

Dodging the question about going to a nominated nuclear site.. Dutton wants Nuclear but won’t stand behind nor in front of it or face the residents of those towns #leadersdebate #auspol

Dutton —> If I can just make this point as it’s a very important point - goes on to blah blah blah and still doesn’t make his point Says everything #leadersdebate #auspol

Yeah not that surprising that he made that comment..

Can we bring back a qualified and trustworthy mediator (Ray Martin come out of retirement..) every single network has been lacking in this election cycle #leadersdebate #auspol

Dutton—> I’ve never talked nor had a relationship with Trump but I’m better and can get things done with him - trust me.. I won’t give everything away.. just most of what we hold #leadersdebate #auspol

Dutton now whitewashing history.. Temu Trump through and through #leadersdebate #auspol

After Dutton goes on a rant about The Voice and our Indigenous people and communities all it does is prove that Dutton is just a grub.. that’s it #leadersdebate #auspol

Dutton takes the ‘Mum.. he is picking on me..’ response to Albo pointing out the massive holes in his policies #leadersdebate #auspol

Where is the detail in any of Dutton’s policies.. site all lacking

The days of Hawke and Keating, even Rudd showed we can and should be bold. This is pairing a grey future.. totally uninspiring

It’s just a drone fest with no substantial policies that advance Australia being detailed Genuinely disappointed with the lack of vision from both Leaders #leadersdebate #auspol

Doesn’t sound like he has a sensible and prudent budget process..

If you’re not getting the funding through cuts then they’re borrowing the money..

oh wait I forgot ole ‘good job Angus’ would be behind the numbers.. cannot be nor should be trusted

23.04.2025 02:27 — 👍 1    🔁 0    💬 0    📌 0

That was my take too. Dutton just doesn’t have detail nor policies & the negative Trump style politics is definitely not flying any longer

Did I watch the same debate as the ‘Panel’ on Nine? Dutton won ? What alternate universe are we in or am I just seeing it with different eyes? #auspol #leadersdebate

It’s hard to explain in a ten second sound bite.. if it’s hard to explain maybe it’s not really feasible..Dutton swings and misses on all the points #leadersdebate
