This is why you don’t vote early. With just days to go in the Australian election, there’s plenty of action yet. In fact, more is happening in this final week than has happened in the entire snoozefest campaign to date. And it’s all bad news, if, as polls indicate, Albanese and Co slither back into government.
First off, Penny Wong has let the cat that we all knew they were trying to hide out of the bag. To whit: Labor have never had any intention of listening to the overwhelming verdict of Australians. In true leftist fashion, they’re going to steamroll ahead with their racist ‘Voice’, no matter what.
Foreign Minister Penny Wong has suggested an indigenous voice is inevitable and Australians will one day be incredulous there was ever an argument about it.
This is just typical of the left: like the spoiled toddlers they are, they will never take ‘NO’ for an answer. Instead, they throw tantrums, stamp their little feets and nag and whine to get their way. Only fools give in to them, vainly hoping that, this time, they’ll be satisfied and shut up. They never do. Giving in only encourages them to demand more.
Meanwhile, Wong’s just peddling more of the standard Labor lies and hypocrisy.
“I think we’ll look back on it in 10 years’ time and it’ll be a bit like marriage equality,” she said. “I always used to say, marriage equality, which took us such a bloody fight to get that done, and I thought, all this fuss. It’ll become something, it’ll be like, people go ‘did we even have an argument about that?’
What a hypocrite! And a bare-faced liar.
Does Wong really think we’ll forget that she steadily opposed ‘same-sex marriage’, as she called it, not ‘marriage equality’? Wong voted against it in 2008 and 2010. She was absolutely unequivocal that ‘this is an institution that is between a man and a woman’.
Labor lie in the same way the rest of us breathe. Case in point:
Anthony Albanese says Foreign Affairs Minister Penny Wong did not suggest that an indigenous voice to parliament was “inevitable” and that she instead reflected on how “people will look back” at the failed referendum.
“She didn’t say that at all,” the Prime Minister told ABC radio.
Yeah, right. And Albanese didn’t deny that he fell off a stage: something he now denies denying, even though both his denial and the fall that sparked it are on crystal clear audio-video. Labor are panicking now Wong’s opened her big mouth.
Jim Chalmers […] was asked to rule out the prospect of an indigenous voice to parliament in Labor’s second term.
“I think the Prime Minister has already done that,” Dr Chalmers told Channel 9.
So, Chalmers wouldn’t actually rule it out. He dodged the question instead.
Make of that what you will.
In other election news, the depth of China’s meddling, and the lengths the communist state will go to to see a re-elected Labor government, are being shockingly exposed.
Labor cabinet minister Clare O’Neil has been embroiled in an election-eve controversy over Chinese campaign volunteers, with confirmation 10 individuals linked to an organisation associated with Beijing’s foreign influence operation were being recruited to staff her polling booths on election day.
The Australian can reveal Chinese-Australian Labor Party member Chap Chow, who describes himself as a “friend” of the minister he’s been “helping out”, organised with the Hubei Association in the past week to recruit volunteers for her electorate of Hotham.
Again, should anyone be surprised? This is the same China that openly barracked for Labor at the last election. The same Labor party which for years took bag loads of cash from CCP-linked operatives and whose members colluded with Chinese spies.
But in a sudden about-face, Mr Chow contacted Hubei Association president Ji Jianmin on Tuesday morning – after news of its volunteers being involved in teal MP Monique Ryan’s Kooyong campaign broke, prompting the Australian Electoral Commission to order a federal investigation – to cancel the 10 volunteers.
So they got caught out.
Coalition campaign spokesman James Paterson has called on the Greens and Labor to refer the Chinese foreign interference-linked group Hubei Association to the electoral integrity assurance taskforce after the group told The Australian that both Labor and the Greens had requested volunteers to help out with staffing polling booths.
Given how badly Labor have degraded our defence capability, and with Albanese refusing to concede that China is a regional threat, you can’t deny that Xi has got his money’s worth.
