I am sure though that all future debt will be added to Labor's debt as usual.LOL

Well i must say i thought both Shorten & Morrison spoke well last night. I'm surprised Bill even had a speech along those lines prepared - anyhow he came across very well. Morrison does have a gift of the gab no doubt . Lovely family as well- those two little girls looked so proud of their dad.

We could well be looking at very long stint for Scomo. He will have absolute rule over the party & be able to set up an extremely stable unit. Actually - you have to wonder how the ALP can ever win now. Disunity was almost their biggest trump card going in & they still couldn't get over the line.

The ABC coverage last night is a great case study in body language. Penny Wong & that Laura Tingle started off full of beans. Sure both had their celebration parties already sorted. Then you could see the smile slowly come off their faces until the realisation hit that they were in strife. The sad thing is Wong tries to advance the belief that she is grounds root, in touch with the peoples needs.She is not. For all of their issues, the likes of Barnaby & Dutton are really more across peoples daily needs than Penny ever will be.

He may have more control with Abbott gone, Molan missing a Senate Seat and Barnaby neutered but with only a few seat majority it will be dependent on who Labor selects as a leader. Logic says Albo, but there will be major pressure for a woman from the left. If Albo is leader he is very popular and wont be trailing by 20 points in preferred PM, and Morrison wont be without poll pressure very long.

Disappointing how the media tried to make something about how Morrison seemed largely by himself.

It just made him look very strong and capable, whereas Bill needed the back up with all those around him.
 
abc dont deserve any more money the sanctimonious mob. Will have to tune into local abc radio to hear to hear how they respond. LOL With Ita at the helm now will be interesting times for the public servants.

ALP will be looking for that miracle worker themselves.

Is that possible pt? for non believers?

Morrison won this entire election on his own.
Credit where credit is due, he carried a broken party, campaigned unbelievably well, and got one of the greatest victories by a single leader in recent memory.

The ALP lean too far to the left.
Its actually that simple.

Australia still has large religious beliefs, and whilst same sex marriage vote was approved, most Australians dont want too much change, and the first change you cant offend is religion.

Its not being said, but I guarantee that Morrison won because Muslims, Jews, Christians, would have voted for him, on mass.
To not think that, would be in denial.
Morrison is deeply religious, a man as stating last night, believes in "miracles".

When you have Penny Wong banging on about her Atheism, you pretty much have no chance.

Personally, I thought Shorten would win, based purely on the fact Australian wages are stagnant.

Australians are learning to live more simply.
Yesteryear, smashed avocado was an everyday event for many people, now its a once a month luxury.

One must beg to question, if people are stagnant with their finances, yet still voted Morrison, we ask "why"?

We have repeated what happened in America.
The polls are false, so dont even make reference to them in the future. They are clearly a false and delusional sense of comfort.

I think at the end of the day, Shorten wasnt liked because he sides too much with the Politically Correct, and society is rejecting that on mass.
Its actually a minority that support PC brigade. Its not a large movement. The media make it seem like it is.

Shorten doesnt speak well either. His over-dramatised pauses are very predictable.
Morrison came across as more real.
And at the end of the day, that counts for plenty too.
People see through superficiality.

Morrisons victory is one of the most outstanding in Australian political history.

I will put this out there early in the thread. Has Morrison got the goods to become a great leader of this country ? What are his strengths - his weaknesses ? He is only 51 years old - so he has got a potential 15 to 20 years ahead of him. I thought his speech last night was excellent - first time i had seen him in that light.

I saw leigh sales interview him on 7.30 and he was very "punchy" knew figures, never hesitated in his answers. Very strong. The treasurer portfolio has put him in good stead.

What portfolios did Bill shorten hold? He seemed to paper over with words, not facts.

your mates are upset.

Chinese state media says shock federal election victory will impact China-Australia relations

hina's state-owned media outlet Global Times has released an editorial saying it is "far from optimistic again" about Chinese-Australian relations after Prime Minister Scott Morrison's unexpected election win.

Key points:

  • Chinese state media says China-Australia relations have deteriorated in recent years
  • A Global Times editorial described the shock election result as "far from optimistic" for foreign relations
  • Former prime minister Paul Keating said spy chiefs were "nutters" and sacking them would improve relations

In an editorial posted to the newspaper's official WeChat account just after midnight following the election, the newspaper said Chinese people were concerned about the  https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-12-27/chinese-australian-relations-have-had-a-rollercoaster-year/10638590" rel="nofollow - impact Mr Morrison's election would have on foreign relations .

"This election result also means that China-Australia relations,  https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-11-05/whats-behind-the-thaw-in-chinas-relations-with-australia/10467788" rel="nofollow - which have deteriorated in recent years  under the leadership of the ruling Coalition formed by the Australian Liberal Party and the National Party, will continue to have uncertain prospects," the editorial read.

"According to the statements made by the Australian media and some Labor Party politicians before the election, it seemed that if the Labor Party wins the election, the party will bring some positive changes to the China-Australia relations."

The editorial pointed to comments from former prime minister and Labor leader  https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-05-06/federal-election-bill-shorten-disagrees-with-paul-keating-china/11082144" rel="nofollow - Paul Keating, who said Australia's spy chiefs are "nutters"  who should be sacked in order to improve relations with China.

"Paul Keating, the former prime minister of the Labor Party who used to be friendly to China, publicly urged the Labor Party to expel the head of ASIO immediately, after the party wins the election. He said that the madman had destroyed the China-Australian relations," the editorial read. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-05-19/china-state-media-reaction-to-australian-election-result/11128458" rel="nofollow - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-05-19/china-state-media-reaction-to-australian-election-result/11128458

Did I make that prediction? Refresh my memory. Doesn't sound like me. I don't like to tempt fate where Labor is concerned.
The only predictions I can recall making were that Abbott and Dutton would lose.

Very lonely and isolated. They said he watched the election coverage from his luxury apartment in Singapore, having just stopped over from a stay in his luxury Manhattan apartment before returning to his Sydney harbourside mansion. 

He must be shattered to not be still in Canberra with all the backstabbing mates in his former party.

ScoMo is no John Howard, but then, can you imagine what JH would have done to that imposter Shorten? ... I certainly don't underestimate what he did to him over the past couple of weeks in just a few well placed observations and statements about Bills character and abilities.Ouch John Howard knows.Wink  

My prediction is that ScoMo will hand the reins over to either Joshie or Andrew Hastie around about his 60th Birthday, having won 4 elections.

I have a problem with this threads title.

There is no coalition. Any person who thinks the National party, is not the rural and regional arm of the Liberal Party, has been asleep for about thirty years.

And for all the conservatives just remember why they are a "coalition". Without the "partnership/takeover", no conservative party would ever win an election.

As has been stated in the last thirty years, a government only gets one get out of jail free election result. If ScoMo and his crew can not get that surplus up, and if the overall debt grows from now until the next election, then he is dead in the water!

Just stating the obvious.
It’s generally acknowledged that to get to a surplus forecast, their assumptions were “heroic”
Which is puzzling,as their narrative during the election, that we are facing headwinds,is not reflected in their budget forecast.

Hey Rusty - just a statistics question for you. PT forecast an ALP win - & at least a 10 year reign after that. So now the LNP got up - & are more than likely to keep the top job for the same 10 years - is it fair to say PT is out by 23 years ? More importantly, is that figure within the margin of error on a bell distribution curve within 2 standard deviations of certainty ?

Garbage in, garbage out.

The problem with your theory,is that the electorate has already established the front bench is either despicable or incompetent.
This time they chose the devil they knew,rather than risk change.

In 3 years time, no one will be listening to Scomo’s spin, debt will have continued to blow out, and the ALP will be a small target.
So,3 years not another 10!

ScoMo is a dressmaker.
Shorten is an incompetent twit.

Would rather dressmaker over incompetent

This is a very impressive Government we now have.

I will be surprised if it doesn't succeed , as a team in harmony.

There was some Shxt removed and others bailed out.

Very good to have the security of Borders , Financial sense and good recruits like Sharma joining the team.
An impressive senate will ensure good Government.

Liberals to appoint a retired, right wing military person as GG? Wow what a change.  Dead

As for Tony, in Liberal circles he's privately known as Whelan The Wrecker.  Wrecked the Labor Govt, wrecked the Coalition Govt, tried to wreck his sister's same sex relationship, same re Hawke's legacy.  

Not quite sure if he's right for Washington as he's cr@p golfer.

The Foley defeat was no surprise it must be said.  Both parties had baggage, only one would win the war of words.

ScoMo and Gladys have more than a few things in common imo, not least being their ability to get a questionable "message" across with great success.

I hope both Governments succeed, if for the Australian/NSW people alone.  Only time will tell.

As far as GG is concerned the present NSW Governor and former head of the Defence Force General David Hurley has already been announced as the next GG.
 
He takes up the position on June 28

Alan Jones never wavered ...     NO ONE can win an election with a 45% renewables target.

Always someone else's fault.

It's the pollsters' fault - just ask all the Snowflakes who got the election result wrong - I got it right - and it's also Labor's fault.

Still getting over the last Labor government's spending spree.

Then 3 years of FAKE POLLS and everyone has been factoring in a Labor win and a recession.

Beware the "Economic Headwinds"!Cry

So now the LNP got up - & are more than likely to keep the top job for the same 10 years - is it fair to say PT is out by 23 years ? More importantly, is that figure within the margin of error on a bell distribution curve within 2 standard deviations of certainty ?

I'll have you know that PT has just been appointed Sportsbet's new head of their election betting division.Thumbs Up

Nothing.

They have been retained with a mandate to "not fcuk the place up the way that Bill was threatening to do"

Some tax cuts and a First Home Buyers Package that was already passed by Labor within 2 hours of the thought bubble being announced - that was it!Wink
