“Hi, where are you from, what drugs are you on, what’s your income and give me some drugs”. It’s a standard greet in the staunchly green and red slums of Sth Y and P Town

You’ve nailed it ……they start with your job, where you live and then ask if you have any schnitz - then they preface the answer to the question with ‘if you do have any can I have a bump’ ……no kidding either

My first question is “did sos touch the ball on the goal line in the 93 grand final”. Tells me instantly whether to keep talking to you or not.

Paris would be about $15 in some spots. And the coffee was rank everywhere there.

In USA, if anyone says they live in New Jersey, the next Q is “which exit?”

LNP would win an election if held today according to a new poll on the news tonight (Morgan I think I heard)

But the social media’s tell me Dutton unelectable

No one seemed to bat an eyelid when Lachlan Murdoch complained of “media elites” a few months ago

Okay.

Sure.

Is there an election being held today?

He seems not to quite grasp the nature of our system. You have to allow him his little ejaculations

Can’t find anything about it, which is not to say it’s incorrect, but if true it’s giving outlier.

I saw that one. Honestly, it looks like the pollsters are messing with the preference allocations to get their desired outcome.

The breakdown of first preference vote, according to that poll, was:

Labor 32%
Coalition 36%
Greens 14%
One Nation 4.5%

Morgan has decided that’s 50.5-49.5 in favour of the coalition (where the Coalition are supposed to be scrounging the extra 14.5% of primary votes I have no idea - surely the Teals are a large percentage of the ‘others’ vote here and there’s a lot of them who won’t go near the Libs as long as Dutton is in charge).

Other pollsters are saying that a first preference vote like that will more likely reflect an 2pp lead of 53-47 to the ALP (if you’re one of those people who thinks 2pp vote really matters any more as voters continue to trend away from the major parties)

Which, given the participation in the survey (~1400), would be within the given error range of estimates (+/- 3%). And conversely, the RM poll within error ranges of other polls.

I couldn’t find it either ……maybe it’s QLD ……LNP leading up there

I wouldn’t pay too much attention.

Bullwinkle is a seagull. Flies in, takes a sh*t, and p!sses off.

Think it comes from an article in the Oz by Simon Benson, Bridget McKenzie’s squeeze.

Yep. @Bacchusfox ?

Not this again. ALP aren’t in the same league as LNP for utter shittness, memories are short. I do like those videos though.
