Labor Left

Strange how people think that the Greens are a credible alternative to the two major parties. People understandably become disillusioned with the major parties. Though they would be better served voting for a good independent or even do an informal vote. If you really want some change then give a smaller party your vote in the senate, that’s where the real power is.

But voting for the Greens in either house is just like voting Labor due to preference deals. Preferences are crucial, especially in marginal electorates and in the senate and they usually put sitting Labor MP’s back in due to an undiscerning general public who are unaware of the importance of preferences in the current electoral system.

Think before voting.
