Most people aren’t disengaged because they don’t care. They’re disengaged because the system is badly explained. I break down how Australian politics actually works from local councils, to state governments, to Canberra. Follow if you want Australian politics explained clearly.

@ellymelly Oh out on my ass! Or transed if they got me in Primary School. I liked the boy stuff, skateboards, pulling apart car engines, getting dirty etc... so obviously, you know, I was born in the wrong body & was supposed to be a boy!

Between Islamification, wokeness, and rainbow stuff ... I definitely would have been expelled from school. There's no way I would have been able to keep my mouth shut. Anyone else? 😬

@JayJay91341991 @abcnews @PaulineHansonOz What is this then? x.com/i/status/20353…
Pauline Hanson 🇦🇺@PaulineHansonOz

Tonight the South Australian people have made their voice heard across the country. Thank you to all of our candidates, our volunteers and branches who have worked endlessly to achieve a historic result for One Nation. Your effort has been worth it. South Australia, your votes have been worth it. One Nation has a voice, and the uni-party of red and blue will be held to account for the first time. Cory Bernardi, Carlos Quaremba and our other new members of parliament will do a fantastic job.

@MickamiousG I think the changes in the voting demographic was remarkable & the fact that there was such a swing to One Nation (regardless of seats), does mean change is afoot politically. This will have flow on affects.

As the war in Iran continues, this conversation is a MUST for those that lead our country and claim to care about the well-being of Australians, the safety of our nation, & our ability to continue to be a leading edge country in technology.

Did you know that Australia is sitting on 43 years of fuel security in those orange basins on the map? 17.5 billion barrels of recoverable oil confirmed in the 2013 EIA report (US Energy Information Administration). We're importing 90% of our fuel while this goldmine sits locked away thanks to decades of political betrayal by impotent Liberal and Labor governments. Mining our own fuel will deliver similar or slightly cheaper(!) pump prices than what we're used to throughout 2025 It would take 8–15+ years but hey, that's exactly why we should've started yesterday. Will the current fuel crisis finally wake us up to ditch all the green virtue signaling, if only for our own survival? As a huge Tesla fan (and ex-employee) who loves the idea of electrifying everything, I say we need to: 🇦🇺⛽️ DRILL BABY DRILL ⛽️🇦🇺

Oh my, such a troll post lol. Every single thing she mentions people "look to Labor for", are metrics she is failing miserably at here in Victoria. We look "at" Labor for these things sure - for their ineptitude & gross incompetence at managing.
Jacinta Allan@JacintaAllanMP

Big congrats to South Australian Labor Premier Peter Malinauskas and his team on their re-election. In uncertain times, people look to Labor for the things that matter. Cost of living. Health. Education. Safety. Jobs. Whether it's in Canberra, in South Australia, or in Victoria later this year, families with new challenges want Labor’s new solutions - not Liberal cuts.

Gosh, some people are so self-entitled these days. Waiting in line at the chemist, waiting to be served, there is a woman having a phone conversation on speaker while she is getting served, holding up the rest of the queue. She then finishes her conversation, turns around with a smirk on her face and says, ‘Sorry, everyone. It’s not my fault that I’m popular and people call me.’ 🤦🏻‍♀️

@aussi3dutchman @DrCraigEmerson You're suggesting Liberal members are leaving because they preferenced One Nation over Labor. I'm tipping you haven't been to a conservative Liberal event in your life if you believe that. 👍

@AusExplained @DrCraigEmerson You're forgetting that they did, in fact, preference One Nation, and their voters are living in droves. So, using your logic, what does that tell you?

The Liberals’’ decision to preference One Nation in South Australia was a disaster as I predicted. The Liberals are at it again, preferencing One Nation thenewdaily.com.au/news/politics/…

@94Seats @GeoffWr33389394 I don't measure our crime rates by other countries. We are the lucky country remember? I measure it on previous years, on our way of life, and what Australians have to come to expect. We are WELL below that now.

@AusExplained @GeoffWr33389394 The government is hardly left, let alone radical. Knife crime is nowhere near international levels. And gun crime is almost nonnexist

Living in Melbourne = Go for a walk in Port Melbourne, get stabbed. Ride up an escalator as you head to work, get stabbed. Walk to work on busy streets of CBD, get stabbed. Tell off kids throwing rocks at your house, get stabbed. Robbers breaking into your home, get stabbed.

@colonelhogans Former prostitute in Parliament in Victoria (Fiona Patten), former stripper in Parliament in Victoria (Georgie Purcell). If you are fine with these women entering Parliament after their sexual proclivities were published, you'd need to find something else on the One Nation fella.

@BarkingMaad @Peter_Fitz Agreed. I think it shows people are growing in their frustration with the 2PP system, & radical change being done by those in power that were not given "a mandate" to make radical changes.

@Peter_Fitz There are reasons for its increasing popularity, regardless of One Nation's flaws or limitations. Whether One Nation represents those reasons is irrelevant. Change is coming.

Not sure about after two years but, overall, 70 per cent of those elected under that banner have left it. It is a circus, with more clowns than it knows what to do with.

@Peter_Fitz Do we know how many people are elected under the One Nation banner and then quit within 2 years

@KatyKray73 @lauren_vasiliou Too many people on the left (the very ones that pretend to care about the marginalised and vulnerable) have not yet been affected by Labor policies, so frankly they just don't care. They don't see Labor destroying the middle class & keeping the poor in poverty. They don't care.

There is an Election in South Australia right now & Labor is winning comfortably. But Pauline Hanson (a Senator from QLD), & her political party One Nation (primarily QLD based) are trending on X, and Labor is not. 😂🤷🤔

@JaneCaro Politics is a pendulum. To say that it is swinging to the hard right, is to agree it has swung far to left, and is attempting to rebalance. We have swung far to left, & this was always going to be the consequence. Centre left/centre right is best for the majority 👍
