Whatever you think of the Greens, we can all be happy that Matt Goodwin is having a bad day. He deserves it, after all.

    It'd be nice if this made him re-evaluate some of his choices, but I don't hold out much hope.

    Reform, the gracious losers, has been calling the vote fraudulent even before the results were out.

    Goodwin has taken to ranting about a coalition of 'Islamists and woke progressives'. So no, I don't think he's going to take any lessons from this.
