The Coalition’s election win has been an ‘absolute rejection’ of Labor’s radical, wealth-redistribution policies by the working class, The Daily Telegraph’s Miranda Devine says.
Ms Devine has told Sky News that Scott Morrison's ‘battlers’, the tradies and outer suburb workers, are everyday Australians with aspirations and mortgages who the Prime Minister was able to show the dangers of Labor’s agenda to. She argues Labor has to rethink its radical stride to the left that’s ostracised its voter base. Image: News Corp Australia
mirandadevine Shorten lost touch with Labour's biggest supporters of old. Many of the big earning individuals these days are tradies in the mine and sub contracting earning thousands a week but sacrificing family time and working their backsides off to get ahead! They're the ones he was to tax
mirandadevine Nice one Miranda ✅✅✅
mirandadevine The left is on the nose. Everyone’s worked out they’re about themselves and themselves alone. Targeting certain groups to pit them against others to cause division. Australia rejected this nonsense emphatically
mirandadevine He wanted to divide and conquer and we saw straight through him.
mirandadevine Time for Shorten to find a new career. This one is over.
mirandadevine Except it wasn't the working class. The only people that benefited from Bill Shorten's agenda was the rich. Shorten liked to project he represented the working class but he came from a privileged background. 'Top end of town' and 'tax loopholes' were empty slogans.
mirandadevine So good luck to the working CLASS. You are now on your own, aint it good to live in a CLASSLESS society and to be able to shoot yourself in the foot. Ah, the dream of Australia.
mirandadevine Divide and destroy
mirandadevine But Penny'no shakey'Wong in the wash up explains the reason for the loss as causal to the LNP running a scare campaign !!! Typical talk reflective of one's meagre capacity 4 humility 2 not share the fall esp. given her own 'moment' but once again failing diplomacy101 big time !!
mirandadevine Self interested. Turning backs on education, the environment, health , first home buyers and young Australians.
mirandadevine Probably also Bill's plan to decrease free speech which was crazy. I'm glad the Coalition won, and by a large margin.
mirandadevine Or of Bill Shorten. He’s so unpopular.
mirandadevine Will Sally McManus stand down from ACTU president after wasting so much union money?
mirandadevine Congrats to Bowenchris you gave retirees the best advice during the campaign , and they took it. Well played, sir! AustraliaDecides AUSVote2019
mirandadevine In a handful of seats on Palmer and OneNation Preferences.
mirandadevine The people 'redistribution' would help the most vote against their self interest. Democracy is painful
mirandadevine byebyeBill
mirandadevine Let's hope it's the end of Commie Socialist crapp..
mirandadevine Nah. We're just too far and lazy as a democracy to want better. Qld are like a 400 pound fat man that is happy to lie in its filth and not budge.
mirandadevine And the vile fascist Murdoch propaganda onslaught continues.

'Decentralising hasn't worked so far, it won't start working now': Coates | Sky News AustraliaThe Grattan Institute's Brendan Coates has dismantled calls for decentralisation of Sydney and Melbourne, saying the reason house prices are so high in the two cities is because that's 'where all the jobs are'. \n\nMr Coates has told Sky News that the ratio of house prices to income in some regional areas 'isn't that much lower than parts of Sydney'. \n\nPrime Minister Scott Morrison took aim at congestion in the major cities in March when he unveiled a migration plan designed to encourage migrants to move to regional Australia. \n\nMr Coates says decentralisation plans have been in the works for a century, saying 'it hasn't worked so far, it won't start working now'. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n Exactly, immigration creates jobs, something the RWNJs on sty news forget (deliberately) to tell you Where have they decentralised. A proper NBN, as originally planned, would have allowed for greater job decentralisation........oh wait who was it that thwarted thatto allow his piss poor subscriber TV network to hobble on for a few more years?

Another fart bubble from the LNPshithouse. Sounds like a better way to affordable home ownership than Labor’s plan of crashing the economy There is no free lunch. If all one has is 5% then they have to borrow 95% and pay interest till the DEBT is paid off. He’s helping property developers, not first home buyers. ausvote19 AusVote2019 auspol19
