Zali Steggall, when called a 'Climate 200 candidate' by a political journalist, brilliantly replied, why don't you call LNP politicians Gina Rinehart candidates then? Because that is exactly what they have been, for many years now, and the Nats have been the Country Miners Party. Drunk on the Hancock mining donations. My dad spent some time with Gina's dad, the founder of Hancock mining. He was a bastard in most ways a human being can be. His daughter idolised him. The election result was Australians telling the LNP it's time to become a political party again, and not just Gina's team in parliament. She's Australia's Musk (whom she adores).
