Episode 78: Two Wings of the Same Bin Chicken (Queensland Election Results) w/Wade

You’re Missen the Point

Welcome back for another episode of You're Missen the Point Podcast. Today's episode is all about on of our so called "civic duties", the vote. Voting has always been pitched to us as the way in which we have our say, a way we can have our voices heard and a means by which we can bring about societal and political change.

But if voting really worked would they allow us to do it? For my American listeners you are smack bang in the middle of your upcoming election. Yet you have something we Aussies don't have, the right to engage or not. That's right for Aussies like my guest and I we are mandated to vote, it is a compulsory "civic duty".

Recently Wade has had to do just that. Queensland has just had a state election with some status quo changing outcomes. To help me discuss the Queensland election results I am joined by the Tropical Canadian himself, my mate and yours, Wade.

We went on to discuss;

- The results of the 2024 Queensland State election.

- Issues facing Queenslanders.

- Fear mongering (job cuts).

- Ex-Liberal Premier Campbell Newman.

- "Conservatives tighten the purse strings and socialist spend like there's no tomorrow".

- Preferential voting system.

- One Nation and the Greens get no seats!

- Katter Party Australia (The original popularist).

- Government corruption, union exploitation and wastage of tax dollars.

- Return to tribalism and the team mentality.

And much much more...
