Comment on Are we going down the same path as US politics?

I was being sarcastic. I meant republican in the American sense of being reactionary. The Labor party seems compromised by the mining lobby.

Riiiiiight I thought you meant in terms of politics and my response about the Greens was being sarcastic. Though the Greens and LNP get dragged into culture wars alot easier than Labor

That is very insightful. obviously if the greens had more power, they would also end up having to strike more deals to get their bills passed. I understand that some compromise is how party politics works. Very sad that senator Payman had to go.
Still allowed to voice my dissent over issues that bother me. The anti-protest laws suck. In WA the fines are $15,000 for disrupting normal activity. 'Republican' is a confusing word. the anti-protest laws are downright Cromwellian
