NSW Election 2019 - Anything goes

So, who is best for the state of NSW ?
I've never been a fan of the two party prefered system....
The state isn't in debt now, so who will do the spending ?

 

I keep seeing adverts for PUP, registered office is Brisbane. I thought it was a NSW election.

 

It's not just emergency. Hubby needed some test done at the clinic at Penrith Hospital. The wait time was 3 months. He called around & found somewhere in Blacktown for the the same test within the week.

 

I've found that, our local radiologists charge an arm and a leg (scheduled fee +++) but they're convenient. If I drive to Merrylands, I get same-day service on Medicare for free. (My time is worth more than the drive) whereas another clinic closer to town was a two week wait (on Medicare as well).

 

Hubby needed further tests after discovery of precancerous cells. Public wait for invasive testing was 12 months "just to get the appointment" (didn't want to ask how much longer before the actual appointment) ... fortunately we are private and got in for tests within 3 weeks

If one had to wait 12 months+ they could be damn well dead - or untreatable - by that stage. Bit more important that replacing a perfectly good stadium

 

Nothing perfectly good about it at all. I am yet to see the facility having been suitable for jelly wrestling, battle bots or curling let alone a few swimming trials.

 

Noice to see where your priorities lie

 

Spoiler: Jelly

Unmissable TV - battlebots is on at midnight on Wednesdays on 9Now.

Tickets to the curling are hot property

Spoiler: As for the pool

 

Any tips on election winners this Saturday?
My only tip is - independents and minor parties controlling the senate

Has Gladys done enough to be returned?
Or has the shadow of Tony turned it?
Has Daley proved himself?
Or is the ghost of Eddie still lurking?

Best wishes to them all - any person running for public office has my respect

 

It'll be a landslide - with all of this rain.

 

Not living in New South Wales I cannot cast a vote but I am looking forward to tomorrow.

Head over to a polling booth in Queanbeyan, swat away all How to Vote cards and proclaim:

"As if I'd vote for the likes of you! Away with ye. I'm here for the sausage sandwich. Bring it to me. Onions on top if you don't mind."

May get some of those cakes which are usually around. Yum time.

 

Yep. @Nodrog it is.

Silliness aside, it is going to be interesting to see what happens.

I've been following Dr Kevin Bonham's blog on it.

 

Is what? I can’t recall saying anything or am I reaching peak senility.

 

I'm pretty unsure too. It wouldn't surprise me if plenty more independents get in to the lower house too. I suspect neither of the majors will be able to form government on their own numbers.

I think Labor is more likely Federally, which usually means the States go the other way.
A lot of voters don't understand the separate roles of Federal v State (eg transport, infrastructure hospitals, health, private health insurance, education) so that doesn't help.

I would have been inclined to think that Labor would get in this time - if I just consider roads, rail etc, they are yet to prove positive for the govt; but I'm not sure Labor has really distinguished themselves from the Libs. I think Gladys is preferable to Daley, he's had some negatives in the last few days which could cost Labor in the polls, especially in more multicultural areas.

So maybe Libs can win it? Maybe?

 

@geoffw Is Queen Bogan in NSW?
