The Labor party behaves like fossil fuel CEO’s useful idiots. The only time they’ve had decent policy was when they had to share power with Rob Oakshot Tony Windsor and the Greens
We could have poached researchers from the US and become an absolute powerhouse.

Nz could also fit inside nsw… it’s about equitable representation I guess… Theres a big difference in the needs of ppl at either end of the monster-sized electorates…
when theyre that big & sparsely populated-the winning candidate is rarely looking out for their regular constituents eg littleproud
My council doesnt even have to put up wards for elections cos nobody contests them… the same council has just been told it breaches human rights by destroying homeless ppls tents, but continues
Can’t even manage bin collection, how would they cope
My state is unicameral, no upper house

The tablelands are a looooong way from the Isa …. And while I’m wrapped that my local area might get an extra seat, I’m not sure it should be at the expense of nth qld ….
