I rarely watch any of those political analysis shows. I find those that do all think the same based on the camp they are in. Results in brain washing

This particular show made its name from having a strong, neutral host, with 3 journos with differing views.
They often had Gerard Henderson with David Marr on together, who were on each end of the spectrum.

They now have a host that thinks his role is to just utter torrents of words, and generally at least 2 conservative journos.

Getting ho hum.

Murdoch stooge James Campbell saying that journalists may obsess about it but the public generally doesn't care.

He is typical of the Tory entitled view that is refusing to accept they lost in May.

 what he doesn't realise is the public mindset has changed and they are tired of corruption. 

 I saw it and just snorted in disbelief.

That was pre-Sky, which is where rightards silo themselves now. It's not as if they don't get invited.
An honest politician is one who when he is bought will stay bought.

A veritable host of sitting Liberal Party members of the NSW State parliament are understood to be retiring from politics prior to the next State election.  

Sick of jobs for the boys?  Disappointed with a government roiled in lack of disclosure?  Maybe on account huge and inexplicable cost blow-outs?  Lack of a business case for a Multi-million proposed dam in Beetrooter's electorate?  Possibility of a swathe of Scommo/Ayres' underhand appointments being over-turned in pre-selection?

Watch this space.  Tongue

What has happened to Mr. 17%? He has gone very quiet.

perhaps he got dug up before he'd actually sprouted?

 or he turned green and was relegated to the compost bin before he poisoned anyone?

 or...someone cut the eyes out of the spud and cooked him...

I notice the LNP has gone a bit quiet on their nuclear energy ''solution'' to our power needs since Putin hijacked Ukraine's biggest nuclear power generator and is threatening Europe.

See the beautiful tribute to the Queen from Matt Guy? A true historian of the British monarchy, it is well worth the read.

Am almost reliably informed the SA opposition (sic) evidently invited Oneonesit to plot the way "forward" along with the mentioned Rightards, however as as a swinging voter he felt obliged to decline. Wink
