I would consider a mandate 95% of the vote myself and none of them would score that. Apart from that, the ****es are supposed to represent ALL Australians, not just those stupid enough to vote for them.

Whats worse is that they are unrepentant liars. The current nobs have gone to the World Heritage Committee to take 76 thousand hectares off the nominated areas from last years forest peace deal. They claimed in public 95% had been heavily logged or degraded. Now it turns out, less than 10% has EVER been disturbed and those areas were included to form regeneration buffer zones. Who says?.... the Liar-brals own people. In the REAL world, that would be a criminal offense.

We are pretty much stuck with two professional political parties that make dumb and dumber look like an erudite pair of individuals,
so no matter how bad they both are, one will end up winning :-(

I reckon all ballot papers should have a box at the top saying
"no one worthy of my vote"
If you fill that in, they get the message that you have voted and
dont want any of em.
See how many get a "mandate" then.

Hallelujah to that brother.

The only way one of them will not win and therefore wont be able to claim a mandate is if you refuse to vote. They make a big deal over the fine but I believe the No-show vote was substantial last time.

Where's Renato1.... Bound to show up sooner or later
