Eh Buddy Hoser

I pray I do not offend by borrowing @[email protected] excellent meme-work. And I'm not proficient at superimposing images, so kindly accept my apologies.

So the centre-left party campaigned on not following in President Drink Bleach's footsteps and won. Predictable, because Australians are awesome.

Meanwhile, as for the AU moron and the comparisons to his counterpart, PP, the Associated Press had this to say:

Dutton had earlier conceded his alliance of conservative parties had been defeated at the election and that he had lost his own parliamentary seat that he had held for 24 years.

Dutton’s plight parallels that of Canada’s last opposition leader, Pierre Poilievre, who lost his seat after Trump declared economic war on the U.S. neighbor to the north. Poilievre had previously been regarded as a shoo-in to become Canada’s next prime minister and shepherd his Conservative Party back into power for the first time in a decade.

Breaking news as of a few minutes ago:

To the hundredth decimal place, the 266th and final poll finally submitted its results for the singular riding that joyfully deprived me of sleep last night, expanding Fanjoy's lead by:

50.83% - 45.83% = 5.00%

It feels fatefully round a number, if you'll permit me to say.

Not bad, one might add, for (1) taking on an incumbent, (2) the incumbent - in this case - being the leader of an opposition party.

It's worthwhile noting concerning PP's lack of legislative achievements in 20 years, that he was kicked in the butt by someone who:

(1) has a carbon neutral home (He So woKe), (2) drove his campaign style with a positive message despite these fascists times we're living in - where vitriolic wailing can bring morons to the national stage.
