It’s alright, it solves one problem.

Doesn’t help that the voters are largely politically ignorant and manipulated by the mainstream media to support whatever. Also we ultimately still have 2 parties due to our preferential system funneling votes up, so that’s fun.

    Nah, Australia has compulsory voting, done on the weekend, and takes 20 minutes max.

    Millennials are the largest voting block and catering to boomers doesn’t win as everyone votes not just the old retired people with spare time.

    He doesn’t care, he just knows where the votes are.

    The Narrandera grandfather’s resume is more typical of a Nationals candidate than One Nation. He was once the chief executive of the Australian Agriculture Company and before that held management and executive positions in agriculture and commodities companies, mostly in cotton.

    So he’s a scumbag responsible for fucking up our water ways to grow unsustainable cash craps for a handful of rich farmers.
