I'm really tired of the misleading conversations, especially between journalists and politicians, that would lead anyone to believe political parties decide where your preferences (in the lower house) are distributed.

This is not true and utterly bullshit. These "preferences" they're discussing are the little pieces of paper they try to stick in your hand as you walk into the polling place.

Only you decide where your preferences go as you list them by numbering in sequence all lower house candidates.

I just wish these fuckwits would make this clear especially for new voters.

Julian Leeser, from the #LNPClownCar, currently on #ABCInsiders shouting at clouds and blaming the #ALP government for synagogue attack.
When you bring your own personal religious beliefs into parliament you weaken our democracy because of your ingrained prejudice and hatred.
At least Speers is taking him to task for a change.

Shane Wright doesn't know what's he's talking about with the National Construction Code.

Electrician doesn't need to know the NCC.

Electrical requirements are outlined in the Australian Stndards and enforced by the NCC.

The real problem is that you have to pay for the Australian Standards.

You should not have to pay the read the rules.

Less than two minutes on Phil Coorey is explain how the #LNPClownCar would have done a better job than the #ALP.
Jane Norman squawking a bunch of words without really saying anything.
Back to Coorey to downplay anything positive and amplify the negative...

#ABCInsiders still a shitshow. Time for a new host and some journalists instead of talking waffle-jockeys...

Urgh. I hate that my local member isn't just crap, but is also the deputy leader of the Nats and I have to look at him and listen to him on #insiders

#ABCInsiders this morning...

Clare O'Neil and Phil Coorey... Seriously!!!

Two of the most pathetic right-wing apologists in the country.

#Journalism in Australia is still in the toilet...

The Shot 👇
(language warning)

The art of being gaslit on a global scale with an Australian perspective.
The power and reach of the pro-Israel lobby is incomprehensible as is the design of US foreign policy to aid Israel in its colonisation of the middle east…

I believe it’s well and truely time the ABC axe Insiders.
David Speers is a joke and has turned the program into an organ of the right wing media.
Sometimes subtle the rest of the time - in your face.
He specifically taps into the populist PR of the right wing, which has no real substance to it, or relevant to the common good of the people - or their understanding of what our politicians are really doing about the big issues that face the country.
I’ve never seen him extract anything new or ground breaking from any politician he’s interviewed, especially how he lets right wing ministers off the hook for so much shit they have done, or are doing
