We’ve done it, we got rid of another soulless right wing politician!

Peter Dutton first made his party lose this election and now also lost his own seat much like Pierre Pullover

We’ve still got a government that green-lit new coal power plants in it’s last term, screwed over the Aboriginal community with a poorly run referendum, and still doesn’t give a shit about climate change, but baby steps hey.

      Hey, we took in your draft dodgers. The main thing would be to not mess up our housing supply further. In any case, I doubt the safe third country agreement would withstand a court challenge at this point.

      It’s going to be trans people who would be eligible first, probably.
