Very little parkland or places for kids to play except on the streets, just rows of houses piled on top of each other.

Thankfully SA hasn’t done anywhere near as much growing as Sydney and Melbourne so there’s numerous outdoor open spaces within walking distance of my front door.

Much the same in Tasmania.

That we’ve got 40% of the national population living in two cities, and that this population has been growing, is a major factor in many of our difficulties with housing, environment, infrastructure and so on.

Another “expert” who fails to mention those not on superannuation who will be affected.

The good news though is there aren’t many of them so no need to worry.

Just like Aboriginals, gays, any religion other than Christianity and plenty of other groups are small minorities which presumably will also be overlooked if necessary in order to benefit the majority.

Strangely I have a feeling that won’t occur... (and it shouldn’t occur but we shouldn’t be stuffing up early retirees etc either).

That was one view. As always there are other perspectives. I reckon there will be some horsetrading if Labour wins and takes these proposals to the Senate.

Too close to call yet,

But Mr T rabbit is out. yeeeeeeeefkhaaaaaarrrrr

Pre-poll, mostly busy workers usually favours ALP
 
All the people I know that pre-polled were chardonnay socialists, beneath them to line up on polling day with the plebs.
 
The people are never wrong.
They want the Coalition without Tony Abbott.
Labor have overreached, misjudged.
Liberals now have a chance to rebuild within Government without any old leaders present.

They still have the energy problem to solve but I think they will solve it.

Next term will be very interesting.
 
I'm with Barry Cassidy just now on abc24, it is still too early to call

OK, my last post on the election. I just hope, more than anything including my franking credits that above all Tony Abbott looses Warringah. After living in that electorate for 30 years and seeing him in person a few times, I will be the happiest guy on Saturday night once this clown is gorn! May you all have a happy election day.:)

Anthony Green has called it.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-05-09/has-antony-green-called-the-election-yet/11095794

I am pretty sure I called it right.

1. Abbott gorn!
2. Liberal win, I keep my franking credits
3. I took a bet with tabcorp at $4.25 to $1 and will win

And a message to Labor and all their supporters, don't piss off self funded retirees or those that work hard to save for their future. If you think 1 million + people are just going give you their franking credits, think again. We are not the big fish.........., bye bye Labor.;)
 
Well didnt I say, it looks like silly Billy could lose the unloseable election.
It would show the silent majority arent stupid.
The race to the bottom may be stopped, the bolshevics, may lose. Horray

Bill it wasnt about SFRetirees, it was about anyone who wanted to save to provide for a better future for themselves and there children, being stripped of that to give it to welfare recipients.
It might make good press, but it stymies endeavour and reward for endeavour, which makes makes Australia great and unique. Advance Australia FAIR.

I'm stunned, blown away.

But how many times has this happened lately. Something is amiss in the polling

It just shows Australia is still Australian and not some sub set of a media trend from overseas.
Just take solice, in holding the faith, that Australia is still Australian IMO.
Obviously the younger generation have to be given credit.
The polling shows what the polsters want to happen.
