"miracle". Hell of a dog-whistle to the white cis Christian evangelicals, that one. Most of my family will will be praising his name today.

A dimension of pure BEES
A bit of light fun. We all want to know which is the worst state, so here are the votes for the nihilist right (percentage wise):

.......NSW VIC QLD SA. WA. TAS
....ON 4.7 2.7 9.9 4.6 5.3 3.6
Anning 0.4 0.5 1.4 0.7 0.6 0.4
Palmer 1.4 2.3 3.3 2.9 1.6 2.6


Good job NSW and TAS, equal lowest vote for the Nazis. The Palmer love in Victoria is also much higher than I thought it would be. But Qld predictably has all of us licked in support for nasty shits.

What about Greens?

Greens 9.4 11.7 11.7 11.8 12.8 12.9

Poor showing, NSW. I expected better. Even Qld and Vic can do better than us.

And just for fun, who toketh the mosteth?

HEMP 2.2 1.6 1.9 2.1 1.7 1.2

Well at least we're the First State in something, still!

When I feel a bit stronger (which may be never), I'm going to drill down into the Queensland stats. In other elections, the PHON votes have been highest in the SE. I'd like to see how their spread of votes have changed.

Also, I'm not going to spend money in Dawson or Dickson until they get themselves under control.

The results were reported (in summary) in Canada, on the west coast. Apparently it was significant. :chair

What, the hemp part? You could be the country that makes 4/20 a national holiday!
(We are having some problems with ours. Apparently tokers are not good about picking up their trash.) Not only would we attend, we might be interested in sending a trade delegation.

I realise this thread was almost dead, but I had to revive it.

Today Barnaby Joyce tweeted a photo of a blocked urinal in the gents loos at Sydney Airport. He was complaining about the sell off of Sydney Airport -- something that had happened under John Howard -- but that's almost irrelevant.

Barnaby is...well...

The urinal was probably just digesting a dose of the LibCredibility output. It'll be fine with a hefty dose of the plunger, a bit of Draino and a day or two,...
