Labor belted in NT poll, CLP on track to form government

That's the sort of headline that will send a chill down what's left of Albo's spine. Wink

The Country Liberal Party will form government in the Northern Territory, with a massive swing against the incumbent Labor party.

ABC election analyst Antony Green said the current government has been defeated.

“It looks like a substantial defeat and it looks like the CLP will win with a majority and may be a substantial majority,” Green told ABC Television.

Former chief minister and Labor MP Natasha Fyles said while disappointing, you always prepared yourself for this result.

With 6.6 per cent of the vote counted the CLP had a 13.8 per cent swing on a two-party preferred basis.

In the seat of Fannie Bay things were looking promising for the Greens candidate Suki Dorris Walker who was leading the CLP in early voting.

More than 85,000 Territorians cast their vote ahead of Saturday, and booths slowed to a trickle in the afternoon swelter on election day.

Chief Minister Eva Lawler had earlier expressed some nerves about her marginal seat of Drysdale but also suggested the slow polling was indication of a change in voter behaviours.

“It’s been fairly steady but quieter than I actually thought,” she told AAP.

Can't say it's a surprise.... I've long predicted a whitewash of Labor this time around due to the faux passes of the voice, out of control (says it honestly) young primarily Aboriginal crime and the Labor approach of attacking police and courts and justice system instead, the findings of the commission into vastly primarily Aboriginal women's deaths (well - what a surprise) ... and 'disappearances' which should have been separate and far more intensive and ongoing ... the never-ending sagas of internecine 'tribal' fighting, the endless array of big blokes on the reservation ripping off the royalty money and funding for personal and family and friend benefit, the lisking of Aborigine balls while signing off on fracking up the artesian groundwater on a massive scale (backstab - left hand - right hand - lick Abo nuts by calling the cops racist to arrest them for murder or shoot them in midflight with a deadly weapon etc; then poison their waterholes anyway), and the generally sheilified approach to every problem up that-a-way.

Sheila's Labor just doesn't have the balls or ovaries for the real issues....

Now look at Bleeding Queensland on the brink of civil war and secession of major components of it while weak leadership creates comedy on a daily basis; Victoria sinking more and more deeply into the quicksand of social madness on every front; NSW government as torpid and inactive as a sleeping toadfish but with the same sort of bite available to close off National Parks and hand over best land to losers, while Newcastle and the Hunter Region are trying their hardest to break off from it; WA signing it all away as miners rights or native titles and native lands and blocking access to national parks and icons as if it means nothing to future generations; Tasmania and Zouth Auztralia going the rat as normal, all Labor states pushing through a voice by stealth over the top of the voters ....

................. what could possibly go wrong for Labor next time around at both State and Federal levels?

Me? I vote for no party... be working for the Guv at the elections again... so I'm looking for a good Independent.

(By the way, there is no group that matches this topic. State and Local does not quite fit. NT not being a State.)

Giggles is long gone all ready in Queensland.

COVID lockouts is still very alive in voters minds even if politicians will run a million miles before mention it .

The trouble with Albo and his ego is he doesn't understand nobody actually voted for him.

We voted Scomoo out .

Dudoo Dutton can win the federal election because Albo is just Scomoo.

One in the same

They didn't do enough to curb crime and paid the price. But if anyone thinks this has any bearing on Albo you're kidding yourselves.

Labor is on the nose everywhere ... including Albo & his dumb policy on migration & the failed Voice.

And each Labor State is going down the voice by stealth path with their Treaties/truth telling policy BS.

So if you think this has nothing to do with the Federal Labor Govt you're dreaming.

There are 15 QLD towns & cities now under threat of inalienable freehold native title claim ... they are in the photo attachment.

And I don't know who researched the population numbers but for where I live they quote the population of the city at 15,287 ....

that was the population when I moved here in 1973 .... 51 years ago.

You require a population of 25,000 to be considered an independent city.

It's been more than that for decades.

It currently stands at 28,532 ..

& as Maryborough & Hervey Bay are now under control of one Council - the Fraser Coast - the combined population is 118,505 - 89,976 living in Hervey Bay.

So these population figures are totally incorrect/misleading bullshyte.

Thats like saying the population of the Gold Coast today(if under threat of Native Title like in the article ...was 99,000/ 1973)

its population now is 743,000.

6 of the 15 towns/cities mentioned are in my immediate shire or no more than the the adjoining shire away.

That's what we all should do ... an attempt to make them more honest/transparent & accountable.
