Yep ☝️
Labor have a mandate to keep their promises and implement the policies they took to the election. Anything more (or less) would be called a broken promise by the other parties and the media.
Albanese is a long-game strategist. That's why he keeps winning against short-term opportunists. 💪👨🎓
Your periodic reminder that these blokes knew how to deal with Nazis.

The article also reinforced this for me. Parties offer policies before an election. A win for one provides it with a mandate to work to legislate these policies. No more. Labor’s stunning election victory doesn’t give it a mandate to work to enact every piece of legislation Greens supporters desire.

QLD kicking goals 🤦♀️
Do you know in regional /rural Australia Sky propaganda is beamed directly into households as free to air
Set up under LNP
Backing workers is the Labor way. And it's the Australian way.
AUKUS is a complex defence pact, not a Netflix subscription you can cancel on a whim. Walking away affects decades of security planning, alliances, and tech capability. Lazy editorials do nothing but feed outrage and mislead the public.
PH Prayer-Room Cleaners just ordered extra bleach 🤮
The political centre has shifted 5.5 points to the left since the LNP's last win in 2019. Albo's Labor government will keep nudging the nation left 🤗.
The coalition will either evolve towards the left or go extinct.
Here's the Scottish version of Wikipedia. It always makes me feel better.

Perversely, any overt attempts to save the planet get labelled "End Of The World" by our right-wing press.
Meaningful help for the environment has to be achieved obliquely, e.g. boosting renewable energy to make coal power worthless instead of just closing mines.
Slow progress, however maddening, is progress nonetheless. Past elections have taught us that any rush to the Left delivers votes to the Right.
Over the last 3 years Albo's Labor government have shifted the sensible centre gently towards the left and will keep heading in that direction for the next 3 years. The future looks so much brighter thanks to Labor.
Conservatives have always had no regard for, or belief in, the consequences of their actions/decisions. I've noticed lately the same mindset appearing in progressive conversations. What's going on Van?
Langbroek and Crisafulli: small and mean on the inside.
Yes! Careful diplomacy and national security are things good, responsible governments have to do.
The shirt-fronting, knee-jerk, brain-fart diplomacy we got from the previous LNP government were examples of what NOT to do.
Labor will gently pull the sensible centre towards the left; slowly, bit by bit.
The Liberals can either follow the sensible centre or go extinct.
QLD Government ending funding for the Environmental Defenders Office is sheer bastardry.
A broken election promise.
Clearly, they do not care for the environment. Legal fights are critical to stop disastrous projects

Today, our new ministry was sworn in to keep serving the Australian people.
No one held back and no one left behind. That’s the future we’re building, together.
I'm feeling very positive and hopeful. I trust Albo and he is supported by an outstanding team.
Constant incremental progress is progress nonetheless and robs the far-right of rage-farming opportunities.
If the Greens keep doing the same thing they'll get the same result.
Ed belongs to the party so he follows the party's rules. Now he's a backbencher, he's free to speak his mind because that's the party's rules. Full respect to Mr Husic. Self-discipline and party-discipline on display this weekend.
Labor's federal ranks are brimming with maturity and talent 😎
Federally, Labor haven't had any opposition holding them to account since the 2022 election. LNP and Greens with their culture wars and playing politics have effectively abandoned the field of play and joined the spectators in the grandstand, booing whenever the government kicked a goal.
I think if Albo didn't want Ed to speak his mind on Gaza he would have kept him in cabinet.
I've heard Coalition MPs' approach to the recent election campaign described as "huffing their own farts while Sharri Markson assures them the polls are wrong"; and now you're stuck with that mental picture as well.
Most of the Greens losses were due to previous LNP support flowing to Labor in 3-way contests.
The Greens vote barely moved. They were... irrelevant.
No. The Albanese government have been given a mandate to implement the policies they took to the election. Any more, or less, spends their hard-won political capital.
