Rather than complain about the 'boganisation' of the Liberal party, as some wealthy pearl-clutchers have been, the best solution is to welcome it, not just for the sake of their electoral future, writes Daniel Wild.
Preliminary analysis of the primary votes for the 2022 election by the Institute of Public Affairs identified a significant vote share going to the three main freedom parties, One Nation, United Australia, and the Liberal Democrats.
The average swing against Labor in those five seats was 8 per cent, and reached as high as 14 per cent in Scullin.There are two main reasons for this swing. Why? Because the Liberals have not given outer-suburban traditional Labor voters a reason to vote Liberal. These protestors were not catching the 58 tram down Toorak road to get to the protests. They were on the Frankston and Craigieburn train lines and who have now given up on the majors altogether.
Rather than complain about the ‘boganisation’ of the Liberal party, as some wealthy pearl-clutchers have been, the best solution is to just embrace it, not just for the sake of their electoral future. But for the sake of our state and our nation. Secondly, it means a growing share of the population do not have a stake in the liberal democratic institutions of our society because they see their lot in life going backwards.
