Australia

It's really sad to see. You would think those in Labor would know first-hand how batshit insane their colleagues are across the aisle and leap at the opportunity to right the ship while they've got the chance. Doesn't it suck to feel powerless in Opposition compared to Government? Faffing around and not addressing cost of living means voters get upset and will take it out on them; "Opposition don't win elections, Governments lose them". Labor hasn't been known for the past couple of decades to hold government as long as the LNP, so they will be pushed out with nothing to their name at this rate; I don't think anybody is going to remember getting double medications per script, even if that's really handy for me personally. Since they hid the Federal ICAC from the public eye that's not going to generate any political capital for them either.

They're banking on using the Voice as another legacy trophy but it has nothing on Medicare, which hasn't quite been as gutted as the NDIS or NBN, just from it's scope I think. They're also just hoping that it's going to pass, but if it doesn't? They have nothing to show. Will we suddenly see a flurry of legislation if it fails, to save face? That seems like madness.
