Bloody hell, now I have to explain Monty Python references to her. I had nearly convinced her I was cool, but now the game is up.
You were an engineering student in the 90s. I’m sure she’d be more surprised if you COULDN’T quote Monty Python…
25 years of Jedi mind tricks to make her forget - all for nothing

Rent feeeze.
Economically diabolical and completely stupid.
Just off the top of my head.
Also a policy that is completely unenforceable.
Yaaaay Greens!
This term has been the
Worst
Term
Of
Any
Greens
Party
Ever.
I was a fan.
They had my first preference.
Now they are first above the cookers and Behind the Liberals.
Joke of a party.
They have become like PETA. The opposite of what they supposedly stand for.
The whole party needs a clean out; and I mean a friggin’ bleach enema.

Foxtel have been hammering liberal ads last 2 night . in particular I’ve seen the liberal family at the diiner table ad run 6 or 7 times in a row the last 2 nights. Thursday night I thought it was a technical error but the same thing happened again last night .
the only problem I have with a Labor victory today is that means another 3 years of liberal born to rule crying over how terrible Australia is and how it’s all Labor’ and particularly Albo’s fault. it will be nice to see the nats slide further into irrelevance , but we will unfortunately see one nation go up a little .
Clive will waste more money but hopefully that might the wafer thin mint that seees him off

Not really.
When the choice is 
or er - then the Voter just gets a little less .
I don’t really think a rent freeze would work well in practice. But I also doubt it would make rents worse or stop Australians buying property.
What else? Surely that’s not the extent of it.(economically irresponsible)
New York City has had large amounts of rent controlled or stabilised rentals for decades.
As have quite a few other cities afaik.
Not quite sure where I see the problem there.
Both LNP and ALP policies are effectively written by the banking lobby to encourage more debt.
Firm property taxes/and relief of ensures property is developed is one way of moving construction along.
As is a targeted immigration policy.
And targeted tax incentives to invest purely in new construction (ie negative gearing on new property only)
Whats the economic argument that they(greens) are irresponsible?
Or do people think Builders won’t build if the conditions aren’t right?
What are they going to do? Run a hamburger restaurant or a cafe?
You build if you can turn a dollar. Just not top dollar.
The irony is that we will get a rent freeze if we continue to put the environment behind economic factors, and the freeze will be permanent.

Ok nerds…
What’s the difference between two candidate preferred and two party preferred when counting the votes?
In Cooper, when they show two candidate voting, and voting in general, it’s ALP then daylight Greens, more daylight then Liberals.
Then when they show the two party preferred, it’s ALP and Liberal.
Why wouldn’t it be two party preferred AlP Vs Greens?
