Oh. And the referendum in Britain is not binding as there was no Slobs option.

It is rather funny the fall out from the leftist parasites who lost with the Brexit vote
Calling on old people to be banned from voting
Calling anyone who voted leave bigots
Calling for a revote as they lost
Seems like democracy is only a popular concept when they are on the winning side.
Also seems like the real bigots are being exposed
The only thing worse than seeing Shorten front the Labor party is seeing those 2 bozos Tony Burke and Chris Bowen speak to camera.
What a pair of assholes.
Pre poll ftw. No waiting. The senate paper is another tablecloth with every option.
Gotta say, the Daily Telegraph has played this campaign to perfection.
Didn't think they'd pull it off.
Credit where it's due though.
I need to hear Antony Green announce the winners or its just not official. I also have to ask him "are you free Mr Humphries"
Scary thought Bill Shorten could be PM in a few hours
FMD
Both major parties have taken a hammering with a lot of people voting for the smaller / alternative parties.
Labour voters are again in for a long hard battle in opposition as they tossed everything they had into this election and fell a long way short on the primary vote. The next election for labour will be a massive defeat as regardless of the state of the economy they have pretty shown the coalition their hand.
Turnbull on the other hand has done sweet FA in the top job and yet he's survived for another term in office. No doubt Turnbull would feel very confident that he can do as he pleases from now on knowing that Bill Shorten will never beat him in an election.
Turnbull got over the line using nothing special to win votes. Shorten unleashed everything he had and still lost. That's the issue. Next time Shorten won't be able to win votes on the back of a Medicare scare campaign and the failures of the real economy don't seem to have to have bothered voters enough either.
What I'd like to see is a graph of the ALP popular vote over the last ten elections to grasp just where Shorten has the ALP positioned.
Note: Beazley's 1998 Election where the ALP received a higher percentage of the popular vote and yet didn't win enough seats. I think this was all on the back of the GST.
Next election the GST bunny was out of the box, the ALP had nothing to attack with [ much like when Medicare is a non issue next election for Turnbull vs Shorten].

Absolute bullshit
Turnbull will be judged on what he does in the next 3 years and nothing else
He has shown himself to be struggling at the job the last 9 months
You put him in a position now where he has to bend over and deal with the minor parties in both the HOF and Senate as he is going to have to do to get everything through and he will suffer more
Look at the shitfight Gillard and Labor had in 2013 with the split Parliament
They had to build unhealthy alliances with the minor parties and struggled as a Government. Come election time a dickhead like Abbott walked it.
If Turnbull wins the next election it will be a ****ing miracle
Shorten will be PM of Australia
It won't be this week but it will be in 2019 guaranteed
He has done such a good job he actually has made Bill Shorten look like a worthy person to be PM
When he came in after ousting Abbott he had a huge leaf in the opinion polls
He quickly whittled it away as the nation lost confidence in him
He has survived by the skin of his teeth not because of his policies or his leadership but more so in the country has little faith in Labor and Shorten
Look at his speech last night. Carried on like a sore loser. Labor lied with their Medicare campaign.
Well **** me it is politics they all ****ing lie
Short memories they must have in the Liberal party when they have got plenty of milage out of lies themselves at election time
Gee he must have forgotten the Liberals lies about kids being thrown overboard to get themselves reelected
The bloke has achieved nothing.
He stole the PM spot just as Julia did and will meet the same fate as her
Either he will get overthrown just as Julia did by Abbott or Morrison and co
Or he will make it to the next election after stumbling along achieving nothing and see the Liberals get smashed just as Labor did in 2013
