The system has many failings, and many voters now feel disenfranchised by Australia's political process with many voting for alternatives to the major legacy parties. However our preferential voting system leaves much to be desired with many Australians still not fully aware of how it actually works, with many preferences floating down to parties they may never have wanted their votes to go, hence the Labor result.
There is still a lot of apathy in the Australian voting public, so many just turn up and vote how their parents voted, how they have always voted, or just a stab in the dark on the way into the polling booth.
Bringing civics back would be a novel idea if the education system wasn't so influenced with Marxist ideology, and lets not forget the legacy media who are an extended arm of the state, as opposed to an unbiased 4th estate to hold elected representatives to account regardless of the ideological stance of the party.
I have turned my own frustration into action and have become involved with Australians for Better Government for that reason. I figure, I may as well be involved in seeking change for a broken system and institutions than continue to complain about it. - https://www.australiansforbetter.com/mission
In regards to the VOICE, I believe the ongoing attempt to have first nations voice and enter treaty has a much deeper and sinister agenda by those who seek to implement a New World order/One World Government. I spent a bit of time pushing back during the voice and produced some content which explains my concerns.
thanks for the read and your very valid and considered comments. It's certainly good to see I'm not the only one channeling frustration of a broken system into some form of productive action.
I too have concerns regarding the deeper intentions behind the First Nations Voice which I suspect could align with yours. I'll look into the links you've provided. This a topic I plan to explore in a future Ground Control post.
I wish you all the best with your Australians For Better mission.
I'm sure this won't be the last time we cross paths Mark.
Good read, Darren.
