I don't care. You make it sound like you're hunting these people who don't conform to your 'progressive' agenda. It's a little creepy tbh. No one in parliament anywhere in Australia is far right.
Its not a metric I care about.

WOW!

I don't very often get accused of having a "progressive agenda". I guess if I'm less-right than you, then I'm left.

"Its not a metric I care about." - I've repeatedly said I don't think a nuanced position should be boiled down to one line, and you keep coming back to it. Why?

abc doesn't care about the metric...unless someone else uses it.

Yes, its not something I consider when I vote. But when its used as a slur it has ramifications to the discourse.
Your kind do it deliberately to marginalise people who you disagree with. Its a dangerous form of social engineering.

It wasn't used a a slur. I have repeatedly stated why it was legitimate. You simply don't wish to understand, nor, for some reason wish to admit that some voters may think differently from you. Your accusation is baseless. I reject it outright.

You are, of course, entitled to your stated opinion that nobody in Federal or State Parliament is extreme right wing. However, others are entitled to their opinion just as much as you.

The result of a traditional inner city Liberal seat being lost to Labor, most on the back of a significant increase (9.5%) in the Greens vote all but guarantees that Labor will be in Government for, well, ever basically. One Party State.

Also Labor has moved right to fill some of the gap left by the Liberal's rightward shift.

I agree with this. To me, the Liberal party missed big time when Labor had a privacy slip and released Dr Finizio's job application. The party could have promoted that her clear objective is to make a positive contribution to our state and that as a young professional, she was prepared to work with the system as it stood. She has most of the attributes of an Eastern states "teal" candidate - young, female, professional. As the Liberal Party in SA lurches right, it risks losing people like her who are likely on the left/Moderate side of the party.

Cressida O'Hanlon won in 2024 with fewer votes (both first preference and two-party-prefered0 than she had when she lost in 2022. It happens to be ALP today, but still very marginal.

Does anyone know what the hold up is in the Dunstan by-election count?

Because of Easter, postal votes were still allowed until today. According to Antony Green, 81 more votes were included. Cressida O'Hanlon won by 354 votes.
