Labor help Peter by playing the pawl.
Mate . . . We don’t have a 2 party system.
Leave the seppo propaganda at home.
Where, precisely, does my post claim .au has a 2 party system?
It’s an illustration of how the 2 major parties have functioned in lock-step to move the Overton Window rightward here for last decade or two of the previous century, and the entirety of this one.
We’re lucky to have an electoral system which permits nuanced preferences to be meaningfully counted. We don’t need to blindly accept the dimmer of two incendiary forces.
The image you posted said it's a fake 2 party system?
Labor has not moved consistently right, but they have had their environmental policies block by the greens, and their housing policies blocked by... Still the greens, because the greens don't actually care and would rather side with the coalition than get any actual change done.
Right there.
The word immediately preceding the underlined section is fake, it’s a specious concept with the electoral system currently used federally in Australia.
