cash and teal

Spending limits could "kill off teals (21 nov 24)

No great loss there.

Okay, Labor have a great fear of electoral opposition.

As soon as McGowan gained power in WA he passed laws which made it very difficult for out-of-Metro electorates to get anyone into parliament.

So, no surprise that Albo fears, and acts against, "teals"

But who are these teals that anyone should worry?

First, they call themselves "independents". They are not.

Then they, teals, act almost as though they are a political party with a shared power.

They are not.

Most of the teals are sponsored by one very rich man. Who is he? What are his political views? We are not told.

He pays the money as "Climate 200" -- a "climate action group.

We do know that Climate200 grew out of an almost identical group, something200.

 All we know of that first group is that it threw out the Climate200 founder

... so we have two billionaires fighting for power... not a good basis for any group with acceptable aims.

So the prime -- only? -- teal sponsor is a man with allegiance only to himself.

But, when he -- as the one and only teal sponsor tells a teal "independent" what to do, will they obey?

Of course they will.

They will obey this one man -- a man with unknown ideas, unexplained ideologies -- obey or lose all funding.

These teals are not "independent".

They act as if they are almost a political party.

Yet they have no party members.

aside: The Legalise Cannabis Australia party has party members. Enough to be registered as a real political party.

It's not always easy but LCA has at least done the hard yards.

The teals have no party members.

No party rules.

No platform, no policy. Nothing.

Teal politicians are a bunch of power-grubbers who take almost anonymous money -- in order to bolster their own power.

What do they really want?

Cross-bench power is all that they will admit to.

The sooner these frauds are removed from parliament -- the better.
