Yeah I binged them after watching this one. It perfectly encapsulates the shitshow that is aussie politics.
I'm WA and we are proper fucked at the moment. At the state level the Labor government has nearly all of the lower house seats and an overwhelming majority in the upper house (because the Libs imploded after Troy Buswell kept getting blotto and doing stupid shit and they had zero talent coming through the ranks). One of the first moves Labor did was strip upper house seats from the non metro areas which are the areas that historically don't vote for them. They instituted a policy with the state theatre trust which prevented any of their locations from being used for "political" rallies and meetings (union meetings somehow were allowed but a religious seminar was deemed political), removed references to Taiwan from maps at the museum and art gallery, and these highly restrictive lockdowns and mandates (we just got boosters mandated and they haven't even finished the roll out of the double vax mandate). The big problem is that a lot of the population are all to happy to keep giving the government more power despite them showing they abuse it at every step.
This is brilliant.
Watch the rest of them (they’re at the Channel page)! I cannot recommend them highly enough, especially if you know who the people are!!
The Greta one (number 6?) is 🔥, too.
