History for Ryan

Leggy

Italy and Argentina moved to the right. There are a few in Europe like Hungry and Croatia. The UK did not move to the left as such, the were pissed of with an incompetent Tory party. Australia got sucked in by the promises and will more than likely vote them out next May.  Northern Territory and Qld smashed the left in the last two months.

Interesting stat I heard today is that every western country has changed leadership in this last election cycle. It's not a left vs right thing as countries like Australia and the UK moved left. It's more to do with dissatisfaction with the global inflation and cost of living crisis and growing inequality.

i didn't say everyone moved to the left, I said all incumbents changed. Everyone. Countries with left wing governments moved right and countries with right wing governments moved left. It's clearly not a left vs right thing but a dissatisfaction to the status quo. Your excuses for the countries that moved left just reinforced what I said and the same excuses can be made for the countries that moved right.

The story about being sucked into promises will likely be just as valid for the Republicans as it is for the Australian Labor party.
