If Dutton looses his seat then he can join the club with Abbot and Johnny Howard. Apparently even pre polls in Dixon swing towards Labor 🤞#ausvotes #auspol

Coal power stations are unreliable and expensive.
They're continually breaking down, causing blackouts and driving up electricity bills.
The sooner we transition to renewables, the sooner we can have more reliable, cheaper energy.

When I came to Australia I thought Howard was the worst, when Abbott became PM I thought it couldn’t get any lower, then I saw Morrison force a handshake on a bushfire victim for a photo opp. Now Dutton who wants to be Trump.
