These are the candidates running in my electorate.
Four candidates from what I call ‘crazies’ parties
Four Independents I would lump as progressive #Libs
Two in the #National Party box
Three standing for #progressive social policies
(I’ll let you guess which candidate I’ve pidgeon holed in the above boxes)

3 out of 13 says all there is to say about politics in regional Australia. We just gotta do better folks or we’ll be voting idiots in forever.

Summary is I can only vote for three of them with conviction. The remainder will all have to fight for the last place on my ballot (the Libertarian ONLEY is running favourite for that honour)

Let’d get it over with… #AusElection25

Day eleven cont: 🗣️🎙️🙊

The #LNP have a candidate problem cont…

“A #Liberal #National candidate (#JeremyNeal) in a must-win #Queensland seat has apologised after #SocialMedia posts airing controversial views about #China, #Covid19 restrictions and “#feminists” who helped “kick out” Donald Trump 🎃in 2020 resurfaced.”

So you chastise Political candidates who have an opinion and tell their truth OR chastise them because they are not tactful? (ie: don’t disclose what they think, lie etc.)
