I have seen the raw grief of a family who lost a son to gambling. Labor’s stitch-up shows politics is broken | David Pocock
By David PocockHow is it that Australians can call so strongly for action on gambling advertising and the major parties fail so comprehensively to listen?

CW: #AusPol
Really grim proceedings in the House of Representatives today. The #Labor Party hand in hand with the #Liberals and #Nationals.
Occasionally, a few in the LNP cross the floor to vote uselessly against the fix.
Each division has the #Greens and the #Independents sitting together, consistently and determinedly representing the vast majority of Australians.

#Labor whether Feds or State (with exception ACT) is as doomed as LNP if it keeps occupying Center-right politics. So, yes, what's are the alternatives. I'd say small L #independents and More savvy #Greens but they're a long way to go. Hence get used to what we've got because LNP+PHON isn't going to get us anywhere but down the gurgler.Apologies for butting-in to the conversation, I can't help myself where politics are concerned -- tragic... yes I know.

@Old_IT_geek
It’s not that hard. I don’t support anything right of centre for one because there lies the path of #authoritarianism and more of the shitful, moribund #neoliberalism that I could ever suffer in what little time I have left. I also do not wish to foister more (or worse) of the same crap we’ve had for the last 40 years on future generations.For me, alternatives are found in small L liberal #Independents who are committed to the community they live in and, of course, the #Greens above all else. If there is a lack of these in your electorate’s candidates at the next election, you’ve got two choices. Get involved and make it happen (preferred option) or move to an electorate where there are such candidates. Putting up with the major parties is no choice at all IMO.

One reason #BillCassidy was willing to break with #Trump 5 years ago is that #Louisiana had a different #election system than it does now. From 1975 until this year, the top 2 finishers on Election Day, regardless of party, would face each other in a runoff if neither garnered 50%. That allowed a #Republican like Cassidy to win by assembling a coalition that included #independents & moderate #Democrats.

"In the past, conservative critics of Trump have usually complained that he has sold out the views and values associated with figures such as Ronald Reagan. Now, criticism of Trump within the conservative camp is for the first time being framed as a betrayal of the supposed values on which the MAGA movement was founded."

"The fulfillment of promises can’t be deferred forever without voters starting to lose patience. As Viktor Orbán learned to his chagrin in Hungary, there comes a time when leaders are measured by their results rather than their rhetoric. And that time has now come for Donald Trump."

Many described his presidency negatively, citing issues like immigration policies, economic concerns, and ongoing controversies."

"According to one survey, more independent voters disapprove of the president now than they did at any point in his first term. The broad coalition that put Trump back in the White House no longer appears to exist."

"The MAGA faithful are overwhelmingly sticking with the president. Not so for everyone else. A number of new polls show that some of the voting blocs that helped power Trump’s 2024 win have lost faith in him: His support among young people has cratered; so has his approval among Latinos."

Babord és una rara avis en el panorama polític català. La majoria de nosaltres som #independents, però als mitjans se'ns presenta com una aliança entre #Comuns i #CUP. És destacable i d'agrair l'entesa per donar #suport i #autonomia a aquesta experiència #municipalista. Alhora, l'equilibri entre les diverses sensibilitats no sempre és fàcil i trobar-lo té un gran valor.
Per això potser tingui interès compartir els esdeveniments que han anat fent créixer aquest #moviment des del 2014.
