Y’all have first past the post / winner takes all, don’t you? There was a vote recently and “labor” won from what I’m reading?

Labor, coalition, independents, etc. what kinds of parties are these? I thought Albanese was a “cunt” yet his party seems to have won again? What’s going on?

    No, preferntial i.e ranked choice

    There was a vote recently and “labor” won from what I’m reading?

    Indeed

    Labor, coalition, independents, etc. what kinds of parties are these?

    Independents aren’t a party per se, the hint is in the name

    We have the Green parry as our centre party and everyone ekse is to the right of them. There is nothing i’d classify as left.

    Labor is anti refugee, pro fossil fuel mining, anti enviorment etc i.e part of neo liberal orthodoxy, centre right, Liberal Party (not liberal in the US sense) is climate change denying, anti refugees, pro private health care, TERFs, etc two sides of the one coin. Bit of difference over Gaza, like minded on Ukraine.
