just use signal, heard it’s pretty good
we got any motive yet?
They stalled a long-term project by a few weeks
It was stuck in the Senate for half a year?? Labor nearly called a double dissolution over it? We're trying to build houses in a housing crisis
Even Jonny Sri admitted:

The Greens MPs and their staffers had concluded that a growing proportion of their own support base wanted them to stop blocking.
No shit but he doesn't comprehend why:
If the Greens don’t block Labor, nothing will change
You can block labor, on things that need to be blocked on, if labor wants to build a coal power plant, go for your life, block the shit out of it
If labor is trying to build some renewables in a very heated/debated area and you demand they build even more, stop it, you're making it worse
The Coalition has promised to repeal the fund if elected.
No mention of the Greens blocking it for some reason, just straight up, if we get in its gone.
So its more like:
If the Greens block Labor, nothing will change, people will get unhappy, and the libs will get in and then we'll be stuck yelling from the sidelines like we did for the 10 years prior to labor getting in again
It's interesting he mentions that as well:
Australia’s fossil fuel emissions ... are still rising.
No they're not, our emissions peaked in 2019
but wouldn't it have been nice if labor had been in power building out renewables for 10 years instead of Morrison bringing a lump of coal into parliament talking about how great it is?
We are a conservative country, the Greens are currently polling within 3% of One Fucking Nation, they have to work better on things that they can really hammer home to people, not in fighting over policies that are aligned with what greens voters actually want
last reply on this one :P
they aren’t obligated to block critical funding for housing either, they made their decision and ive made mine
the real pain for me is that when i went to vote there was like 5 nutter parties all of them right wing, the libs and then just labor and the greens on the left, limited choices for anyone left wing :(
to me $10 billion for social housing is a massive win and huge progress over previous governments, the greens demanding cherries on top by blocking it right up until the last minute in the middle of a housing crisis is a joke, they took credit for forcing labor to go around them and give money directly to the states as well
the greens are free to pick their battles, in my opinion they picked the wrong one, for that after 15 years of preferencing the greens above labor they are now behind it
No idea I'm in Brisbane but are you talking about federal labor or victorian state labor?
No thanks
The Greens and Liberals Joined Forces to Block Labor’s Housing Bill
Unforgivable
I don't get it, looks spot on to me?
