Yesterday was our federal election and I spent the day working at the Op Shop. The school was a polling place and the parents’ group ran a sausage sizzle as a fundraiser. Here is my sausage, with onion but no sauce.
The day was very pleasant, the shop did well, the sausages all sold out and there was a nice community atmosphere.
Unfortunately, the day went downhill once the polls closed and the Liberal government was returned for another three years. There is a lot more I’d like to say about that but I should probably wait till I’m less angry; maybe in about three years.

That photo says it all, Vanda. I too am waiting until I get some perspective. Hugs to you.

I can’t believe it happened again.

I can. Half of all Australians want to ban Muslims. I think that is an under-estimate. I think that cohort is easily swayed by the various fear campaigns that characterised this election.

I did not expect it to be the easy victory that the polls were predicting, not from talking to people around me but I thought Labor might just scrape in. Unfortunately hate, fear and greed won out over common sense.
