@twtrrr @abcnews Anne Ruston was one of a Ministry that enabled the worst, most malintentioned Prime Minister Australia has had. All the Ministers of Scott Morrisons Government who talk of princples are having a massive lend. They all stand for nothing of value, her included.

Anne Ruston as LNP spokesperson on @abcnews is an unsavoury choice. Broadchurch of views even if we disagree she says if her parties approach these days. Accepting difference. But always voting against the people left behind. Refusing to see hardship as systemic. 😡 #auspol 🤮

@MKB27 @elliemail When Rushton talks of what the Liberal Party stands for she means nothing. Nothing at all. They stand by ideology no longer suited to modern Australia. ONP has achieved by listening to people, to their disaffection. The Libs never listen to voters, even when we whack them.

When Anne Ruston says "what the Liberal Party stands for" I have no actual idea what she means. None. And judging by their plummeting vote in #SAvotes neither does anyone else. The brand is damaged and, no, it doesn't help to throw in a John Howard "insight" #abcnews

@TonyHWindsor @BethCharleston Karma 😂😂😂

Abbott and Credlin must be very proud..they have just destroyed the Liberal Party. No church no pulpit but dust to dust.

@lyttle_deb9361 Downer is like all the other dregs of a bygone era, they offer no benefit to anyone.

As the brilliant PJK would say .. sit down curly !

@lesstenny @HermanZelda Thank god for buffer of the preferential vote. Good that the Green vote was up. The fact that Labors vote is also up is a real rupudiation of right wing propoganda. SA done good!

Wtf happened to One Nation?

@Cassandrasl99 The Libs will vote for anyone to win a vote. No ethics at all.

Why would the Liberals preference One Nation - are they daft? #savotes

Watching Peter Malinauskas reminds me the world is full of lovely people who can lead from positions of great power without being led astray by it. Well done SA for your vote for decency and competency in Government. Lets keep the good & get rid of the wronguns folks. #savotes

@xskinn Great night in Ian, I even cracked a beer to celebrate 😂

The ABC Panel of journalists on SA Votes are really dirty on the election result. HA!😂🤣🤣Ian #SAVotes

@macsween_prue @corybernardi @OneNationAus Jumped of the Coalition have we?

Congratulations @corybernardi @OneNationAus a taste of things to come

@KenMcAlpine @SpudBenBean Plonker 😂😂😂

Excellent

@TKoutsantonisMP I loved your great commentary tonight on the ABC coverage of the SA election. Thank you.

@Cassandrasl99 Especially in the era of Trump and nasty Conservative Governments around the world.

@hughriminton @BarbaraHFlowers Rushton still espousing traditional Liberal values. Their Liberal values are garbage, in modern Australia they make them unelectable. But still they espose them. Yawn.

“You don’t beat another party by becoming the other party.” Federal Liberal frontbencher Anne Ruston, a moderate, urges against a lurch to the right as One Nation carves up the Liberal vote in South Australia.

@SimonBanksHB @LiberalAus @OneNationAus I would argue traditional Liberal values are part of their demise. So are their personnel. I watched Anne Rushton tonight & I see a remnant of an incompetent, untrustworthy Ministry who enabled a plonker named Morrison to trash their brand & pervert proper democratic process.

If only @LiberalAus Returned to traditional @LiberalAus values By not preferencing @OneNationAus They have knowingly, cowardly done this to themselves

Angus Taylor is no Ashton Hurn. Anglus Taylor is a boring, nonachieving dinosaur. Ashton Hurn is young, articlate, confident, optimistic and impressive. The Libs need to dump Taylor ASAP. #savotes

Pauline Hanson reminded me in her speech of Don Chipp. It was all about keeping the bastards honest. And so we should, no wonder her message is selling.#savotes

Observations: People are looking for & finding reasons to vote for Labor. The Green vote has improved. ONP has taken most of the Liberal votes, even though they may not win seats in the lower house. Listening to Anne Rushton, the Libs have still learned nothing. #savotes

@SimonBanksHB @AshtonHurn @alpsa @OneNationAus @LiberalAus Rushton says the Libs meed to communicate better & get back to core values. If the Libs cannot see from their belting in SA that Liberal core values are irrelevant to modern Australia they never will. They need fundamental change to their umderlying ideals & policy platform.

Now clear that @AshtonHurn thought she was running a classical campaign against @alpsa In reality, she was running a campaign against @OneNationAus That was a basic strategic error The recriminations within @liberalaus will resonate across Australia

@AngusTaylorMP @ElaineM11584892 Liberal ideology is no longer fit for purpose. SA proves it. You are not part of the change required Mr Taylor, you are part of the groundhog day insistence on being stuck in a past irrelevant to modern Australia. Resign & move out of the way.

Labor needs to stop the deflection and blame games and start taking real steps to ensure Australia has the fuel security we so desperately need.

@xskinn Lets watch the Federal Libs implode on Monday Ian. Lucky they've got Angus there to inspire confidence 😂😂😂😂😂

Labor returned to Govt. One Nation is taking some votes from the Labor and Liberal parties but are yet to win a seat. Ian #savotes
