    Australian politician with some decidedly fascist tendencies. He’s exactly the monster he looks like

    Generally you don’t have to say someone is not a monster if they are indeed not a monster.

    This guy is fucking terrifying. He’s rabbidly racist, ex cop, anti migrant.

    He changed customs to “australian boarder farce” who’s logo was literally a faceless man in paramilitary outfit.

    In his inaugural speech to parliament (you can read the transcript here: https://www.peterdutton.com.au/about/maiden-speech/) in 2002, a time of some pretty dark excesses of the court system and police murders he said "and I have seen the sickening behaviour displayed by people who, frankly, barely justify their existence in our sometimes over tolerant society. "

    He literally thought that queensland in 2002 was over tolerant. We incarcerate the native people at one of the (if not the) highest rates in the world.

    Over.

    Tolerant.

    Well. In a one on one call with him once (he’s my local member) I asked him why we could not protect individual rights with a charter of human rights.

    I would describe the tone of his response as visceral… He said to me:

    "[I don’t trust the courts in interpreting legislation like that. I would not want to give them an inch. Just look what they’ve done down in Victoria.]{paraphrased}

    [As far as I’m concerned, the parliament is perfectly placed to decide what is, and is not a human right, and if you disagree with me, you can vote me out… ]{direct quote}"

    I assume the VIC reference was to the judges that had been appointed most recently with track records of upholding human rights…

    Years ago on twitter some random disabled guy called Dutton a “rape apologist”, and got sued to oblivion and utterly destroyed his life and family.

    This guy is a monster.

    Luckily he thinks he can become prime minister without the “woke left city dwellers” (most Australians live in cities), and is pushing a ludicrous nuclear energy agenda that is devoid of financial or environmental logic. So I’m fairly confident Albo will get re-elected.

        Tasmania election, the Labor leader immediately conceded defeat and didn’t want to entertain the idea of forming a coalition with anyone, especially the Greens. I mean like, what a loser, by her own choosing.

          Labor is fucking allergic to working with the greens because the greens have ideals.

          Sure sometimes they’re a bit stupid but of the parties with a regular presence in the houses they’re the only ones not dragging us to hell.

    As a bonus he is the minister responsible for allowing the varolia bee mite into the country as Border Force stopped training detector dogs for bee and honey imports on his watch
