I think Australia’s dumbed-down masses should be given exactly what they voted for.
Shut down the coal, gas and diesel power plants immediately as per the plans of those “genius” power systems “engineers” Albo and Blackout Bowen.

What a terrible era in which idiots govern the blind.

Agreed, but that quote is not from Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar to which it is usually misattributed but a paraphrase of King Lear.
But from Julius Caesar we do have:

Australians should be proud. They have now voted for Net Zero IQ politicians.

H. L. Mencken:
‘Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.’

I don’t know anyone that voted for Greens, Labor or Teals (or worse) but I make a conscious choice not to associate with Leftists.
However, if I ever do meet someone who is suffering due to the Net Zero IQ politicians they voted for, I will have zero sympathy for them.

I think the next task for productive, thinking Australians is work out how to survive the next years and possibly even a decade or more of Labor rule.
It’s not obvious to me how personal hard-earned and saved for wealth and assets can be preserved, apart from physical gold which is not safe or practical to keep. Or leave the country (in which case they’ll tax you when you leave).
Certainly, death taxes and assets taxes are on the way, starting with taxes on unrealised capital gains on superannuation (retirement) funds. Oh, they renamed death duties by the woke name of “inheritance tax”.
And of course there’ll be more lifestyle taxes such as on energy and “luxuries” for the objective of lowering the standard of living of non-Elites.
All the products of your hard work and savings are up for a grab by the socialist Government (except those of the Elites).

It looks like the Greens “dear leader” Bandt has lost his seat of Melbournistan.
His replacement will however be only a slightly less bad Labor member.

One tiny piece of good news.

Has Blackout Bowen lost?
00
No.
They love him.
They should be rewarded by being the first to go on 100% “renewables” with no coal, gas or diesel backups.

The Media over here are saying that the OZ opposition ran a very poor campaign and started making mistakes when they were leading back in February, whilst that of the governing party ran a pretty good-if uninspiring- one.

Correct.
A child age 6 years could have run a better Campaign.

George Christiansen may be right about this. He blames “faceless men” in the NSW branch of the Liberal party but does not name any names.
The Liberal party and hence the country is in big trouble.

He refers to the so-called “moderates” and Photios faction. The “moderates”, despite the name, are the far Left of the party, essentially Labor infiltrators.
