I don't think this country has the ability to see past its nose anymore. It laps up the deliberate media misinformation and just has it's hand out for cheap freebies whilst being raped financially behind their backs.
Even the Teal candidate, the "Climate 200" grub is still being hailed as the one who missed out, the best candidate by the media.
Canavan calling all One Nation voters all "protest voters who don't understand reality".
The major party responsible for basically ruining this country deliberately, even it's sub-divisions in the states where it had white anted your lives, is still not taking any heed of the change in sentiment.
Watch how this upcoming "Budget", with the drunken Bogan Chalmers deliberately further destroying the housing and building industry, giving a few $100 handouts to the dumb voters who will lap it up, whilst stealing another $5000 from them in changes to tax laws.
Just now on the news, we see that parasite Minns, who is called by the fools as where Labor should be heading, basically bagging out all gun owners saying they must all be in pathetic gun clubs, because they are filled with narcs and dobbers who will report on one another as unfit to own guns.
Imagine being a hunter only, or a farmer, 300km from the nearest gun club, being forced to be a member there just to force some city grubs pathetic desires on him? A bloke who handles guns everyday on a professional level to maintain his business, being forced to sit and listen to what a range officer tells him?
Whilst his business is going to sh*t, wasting another day and $100 in fuel, sitting at a bench at a range being run by retirees trying to stay busy?
The voters will never learn, even when they are chained behind an oxen in a field doing the socialists bidding, nor will the city-based politicians who are devoted to their own immortality at the peoples expense.
Yes, here and there, we will see sanity in some country electorates, but until there is some major societal upset, the slide will only continue.

ALP didn't even field a candidate, and that the Liberal candidate was not the previous party leader - who was knifed in a way much of the electorate found appalling - also caused a precipitous drop - a protest vote - in their primary vote. I think all the conservative side of politics may have done is eat its own tail and consigned itself to the wilderness for some time to come, in the way the ALP/DLP split allowed the Liberal party to govern Victoria for a generation, and the ALP may continue to hold government as a least-worst option to the average voter. Don't underestimate just how unelectably unpalatable many average Australians find US-style right-wing populist politics that ON espouses. It's a shame, because a lot of centrist swinging voters like myself are looking for a viable alternative to the ALP. ON is not it. Nor is the Liberal party.

If ON gets more votes, (pre/during election), it tells the others, "Here's the electorate speaking, listen or else."
