are to the far right of Labor.

Love the thick, broad OZ accent of the female anchors. Often can't understand them, they speak deliberately then rush over something.

They described Dutton as "not a bad guy but not the right guy", wow do we in the US need to have that bad guy metric in our politics.

The clip seems an apology and pity party for Labor, maybe it's a 'gracious' cultural thing to soften the loss for the losing side.

I think what Dutton needed was hair. He seems extraterrestrial.
