    Gotta say, today was a much-needed dose of hope here in Australia. So refreshing to see our nation’s leader act with dignity and empathy for people, and actually have a plan to make things better.

    It feels like Dutton’s campaign was nothing but ‘Don’t vote for Labor’ instead of ‘here’s what we’re going to do’.

      In Canada it was a carbon copy of that. Name calling and smear campaign… and when asked what THEY would do? « Lower taxes! » …. Ok… but how? « You’ll see!! »

      … No thanks 🙂‍↔️

      Dear Australian, and fellow citizen of the world: you are so right, and Canada was afflicted with much of the same problem.

      As such, your country is in inspiration to those of us in the United States - and the world at large.

      So, yeah, I’ve been blasting Australian rock music. Thank you so much and have a great day!
