Good to hear!
(That said, always remember to check of independents before voting. A few of them are recent Coalition/Labor party members who left over a certain issue, some are just as bad. Luckily I’ve seen more good than bad ones)
Comment on From Doge to Smoge, Peter Dutton’s Coalition is an eerie echo of Trump (and Musk’s) America
urno@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoYour point about the independents is a good one; I was incredibly heartened by their emergence last election.
I would dearly love to see more of them (in fact I’ve seen placard wavers in my neck of the, previously independent-free, woods) and hope they have the resources to combat the incoming LNP bullshit!

40 years ago, all I did was vote Independent #1, now (last 20 years) I always vote Green and then preference independents until I run out.
It’s getting harder at the arse end of the ballot paper; One Nation, Palmer, Libs, Nats, Labor, Jacqui Lambi Party (here in Tassie) etal are all shitty choices. How to rank them becomes tricker.
