Buzz wrote the Federal election result off as 'state issues' as to why Labor lost the majority.

He then quoted the result in the state of Victoria as being evidence of where the ALP is popular, then Labor then lost the state election.

Comedy is all in the timing.

yes and Labor now is tumbling BELOW Whitlams figures.

But the best news of all is watching the Greens drop even faster. 6 months ago they were polling at 16% - now at 10%. and that translates to a 8% election vote - a full 2.4% LOWER than the last election.

as I predicted - applause please - the Greens have reached their zenith ad are dropping badly. It was predicted that as soonas they got in a position to actually influence legislation eg carbon tax, people woudl abandon them. Disgruntled labor supporters voted Greens knowing the preferences would end up with labor. they didnt actually want Greens MPs or policies. and the best news is that they are leaving the greens and now going for the coalition.

Labors primary vote down to 31% compared to Liberals 47%
2PP at 56/44
Greens polls down to 10% meaning an actual vot of 8%

Labor and the Greens are dropping like a stone!

lets see buzz explain this one away!

Perhaps, Longy, you could explain why you are incorrectly quoting the Coalition's purported primary instead of the Liberal Party's!?

Lamenting the shift in the Australian psyche, away from the egalitarian ideal of the fair-go - and the rise of short-sighted pollies, who worship the 'Growth Fairy' and seek to divide and conquer!
