Honestly, they should be. Even their rank and file members have been betrayed. As for supporters, the CFMEU fiasco gave many people in my union’s chat rooms cold feet, with the pro-Labor peeps in disbelief they would do what they have, and that’s on top of the Party’s active complicity in the Middle East conflict. Labor have mirrored the US Democrat Party in many clear ways. The main difference I see in the situation is that is much easier for Australia to swing left instead of right, since we don’t have the same FPTP spoiler effect in our federal voting system, so they can’t just fearmonger over the Coalition to scare the socdems and socialists into joining them.

It will be interesting to see how the Victorian council elections pan out as a litmus test, interestingly in NSW council elections the Labor Party lost 26 seats, with the Greens gaining 8. That’s just surface level looking at numbers but its enough for me to wonder if Federal Labor are worried.

Condorcet

Nice.

edit: for those who aren’t aware

Something tells me they don’t care about the US’s opinion when it comes to invasions.

This has been happening for over a year, it’s not sudden just now that there’s an election.

Its not like trump is any different.

That’s irrelevant. Just like Liberal and Labor here are both systematically supportive of the Zionist regime, just because one might prefer a party over the other doesn’t make them less worthy of criticism. No-one’s going to say ‘omg biden is complicit in genocide, im going to vote for trump instead!’, or ‘labor leadership have blood on their hands, hopefully the coalition will fix it!’ so I’m not sure what Trump has to do with this at all.
