Tories sacking one of their deepest brownshirt candidates this morning. Hastie and (Aint) Goodenough are also so in strife for their links to the lunar right.

Trying to find a winner for farkwittery in this election may be a hard call, but so far the ON candidate who posted the groping pictures of himself may be a head

lol... you are prolly right. Tough contest though. Beyond No Notion's farkwittery, let alone Palmer's folk, the larger parties have been shown yet again to be tosspots.

The Tories seem intent on pre-selecting dumb banjos and uber right East Praetorians. Decent enough folk like Bishop, Truffles, Pyne have really been driven out of the Tories.

The Radishes are even worse.

The prize of dufferdom goes to the agrarian National Socialists in the old Country Party. Barney Bananas and their deal with No Notion is high farce.

[Bradman]

Actually there may not be a formal coalition after this election. I can see the Nats splitting away or splitting. Maybe some of their city members joining the new, right liberal wing/party.

Social media/ comments pages claim another victim:

Fark me! Is it that hard. Candidate applies, party Google's candidate. No wonder we had sec. 44 problems if they can't get the obvious stuff sorted.

[skully]

You really have to wonder how dumb some folk are. These clowns know full well what is unacceptable posting behaviour and content, yet they continue to shoot themselves in the foot.

The Pinkos are not immune. An anti-jewish rant got Labor NT candidate Wayne Kurnoth flicked from the election. Humorously Shortarse claimed he'd never met the bloke in an effort to distance himself from the scandal, yet here is proof that he had...

One Nation see the Liberal Party and raise them...

Ta. Didn't realise the farkwit was running up this way. The pics sort of drowned out the narrative.

As Wills was Hawke's old seat I assume it's safe ALP as are the others these clowns are turning up in. Might be case of the first rube to come through the door gets the gig.

The Good Guys have to make a decent showing in Victoria to have any chance of retaining government. I can't see it.

I found some weird sponsored content shyte on this thread (Murdoch?) before I did the monthly log in

[skully]

Sponsored content usually relates to stuff that you have surfed online recently. Are you a secret Murdoch fan, h??

[Bradman]

Guess you've got to take whoevers willing to pay. What's a monthly login?

Yep. Victoria is gonna fark them. Esp with the unvetted fruit loops poisoning the well.

It's also trigger words isn't it. For instance, you are likely to be bombarded with ads from the G00D Guys shortly.

[skully]

Ha!!!

No I think it's defo to do with stuff you've surfed. I was just looking for accommodation in London via AirBnB and now have AirBnB sponsored content showing at the top of the Forum.

[JGK]

Is it smart enough to be phonetic? I keep on getting ads to visit Cairns.

[Bradman]

Bring an umbrella.

[skully]

I have no idea.

[JGK]

Bring an umbrella.

What about if I am going to Cannes?

Bullet proof jacket and need for a pretentious bypass.
