A great article covering all my instinctive feelings about this election. The Trump factor that you highlighted is bigger than many commentators acknowledge and I dared to feel somewhat patriotic after Albos victory speech. Then I heard Tony Abbott mention the word “ Patriots “ and so I need to find another term, ‘hopeful’ springs to mind and as you rightly suggest, absolutely no complacency

The temptation is to feel sorry for Dutton, with his father getting ill in the middle of the campaign, and suffering a humiliating defeat, but his Trumpisms were so blatant & cynical it's hard to make excuses. They all KNOW this Trump stuff is wrong, but they do it anyway.
