Aus Election 2025

Oh look, Dutton has had a change of heart, he's suddenly reversed a policy he has pushed relentlessly since the Covid lock down ended;

Peter Dutton has sensationally dumped his controversial plan to force public servants back into the office, conceding he has “listened” to the backlash from workers who want flexibility.

In a stunning backflip, the Liberal Party is dumping and running from the plan to force public servants back into the office five days a week just a month after announcing it.

You see, I trust him as much as I trust Trump, it's easy to reverse a position you are really set on because you think you were going to lose votes over it, then reverse that decision once you are in power and can't be removed, the Labor party should hammer him on this, I mean he's a man of a certain position, and that is that he holds no position except the one that will get him elected! Still, weeks to go now, probably to late to see big changes in electoral chances now unless something really big happens. Hmm, stand by for Mondays financial markets to open!

He's also backed out of sacking 40,000 public servants, and he's having second thoughts on building a wall between Australia and Mexico, apparently.

They gambled on being aussie maga, it was always going to be a stupid gamble really. They think the whole country inhabits their sky/fox news echo chamber and that everyone loves Trump. I'd back them to lose the election if it was due this weekend, still a long way to go though. On the other hand, it's another 3 weeks of Trump as well and like it or not Dutton has pinned himself to the orange fart now, so there's that.
