That’s right Cronulla, your likely next local member isn’t actually local. But, he promises he will be real soon!

Good luck with that!

Having lived in super safe-seats and marginal seats, I promise it’s far better to live in a seat that flips every election!

    Another bloke.

    That’s right. They’re sticking with the “Best candidate” approach.

    When about 80% of the “Best candidates” are male (source), you may as well just say “Males are superior”.

        I honestly don’t know. There’s more women represented in states as members than federally for the LNP. Is it significant? Why? How?

        But it’s also a bit weird that by bringing someone in from outside, they are effectively saying that there is nobody -male or female- in the Shire that is good enough to run for the LNP…

        Not. One. Person.

        It just feels wrong.
