    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.

    Labour jobs are distinct. The Labor Party however might win this

    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.

    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.

    I doubt it. This was Turnbull's to lose, and he almost did. Not a soul in Labor expected to win. Shorten's a cardboard man, yet he's pulled off what Laborites thought couldn't be done.

    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

    yeah see this oft parroted line always gets me.
    so what exactly what are the things he has 'struggled at' in the job and what exactly were you expecting of him when he inherited the job?

    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
