@JCoure; unless MPs are representing their contestants they've no right to be elected to Parliament by them.
Albanese's 'fearful comments' about 'faith-based parties' not existing in Australia is absolute hogwash ... the Labor Party's roots are embedded in Catholicism and during the 1950s-60s Labor split over just that. It's further demonstrated today by how Labor so generously funds Catholic schools and grants one of the largest and most profitable businesses on Earth 'charity status'.
Why Albanese has chosen to smear Muslims is for him to explain properly to the Australian People - he may yet lose his own seat at the 2025 Election as a direct consequence of what's been done by his 'team' to senator Fatima Payman.
For decades now Australia's federal government has degenerated into a protection racket for the wealthiest and most privileged elements within society. They've enabled / fostered the creation of ethnic enclaves via imposing education apartheid by segregating out our kids into elitist taxpayer-funded 'private schools'.
Election results such as that in the UK and France are headed our way unless our politicians start reflecting the needs and aspirations of Aussie Battlers instead of opaque lobbyists and organisations including the IPA, the BCA, the MCA and the ACL.
