Given how the results of last election are being so spectacularly ignored, the regular drip feed of .0000?% of (?) population is pointless, and damaging for all. I repeat, who is paying and why? Who is polled etc etc. The agenda is likely rife with (un)conscious bias.<br/><br/>And not to mention ignoring the significant and widespread results of polling in favour of a gas tax, no gambling ads etc etc etc. <br/><br/>If after a litmus test of &#39;mood&#39; just ask around colleagues, friends, club members, folk at the pub / grocer. It amounts to the same thing. And who knows what tomorrow brings to further render the results pointless. <br/><br/>Sure, maybe annual polls at a set time, targeting a broad range of folk could be useful to test policy rather than grievance. Not enabling ON and the hideous division promote via the plethora of polls and media that plays with the data.<br/><br/>Its become a lucrative side business of government, along with lobbyists. 2026-09-07T22:18:25Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrjwajdkyr4sae4hxwpanmuu6wtvhaktn4l696ckea69ywh2nm6zszyqnevkyknhclcddd5fganj75rerqdza75mwvpsepzpdd72ehaxgazvkcsx7 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsfa8xht2sfsjzdmer7m24lwmrep3vacx8kf3mkslafvyyrx575nysruq9y8'>nevent1q…q9y8</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Couldn&#39;t agree more - I loathe them. <br/><br/>What a scourge they are and have done nothing but ruin effective governing and meaningful policy development. And the evolution of dodgy, lazy reporting based on *a random set of data*.<br/><br/>A random snapshot of - *who*?, How many? How and why selected? Where do they live?, How have they voted in past? Age range? Personal circumstances that may influence responses? Where do they get their news / political reporting from? How often polled -Why / why not repeated?, Declared vested interests? Who&#39;s paying for the poll and desired scenarios being tested? TORs? <br/><br/>Without all that information, the data has no scope for folk to make an informed decision about what the data may suggest for them.<br/><br/>Also, polls rarely seem to go beyond party politics - and mostly 2PP (and now + ON) - so invalid from outset as Greens and Indys often ignored. <br/><br/>Weekly polls are also meaningless and only serve to drive politicians to govern by poll - and react to how the media skews the data. 2026-09-07T07:38:07Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrltfw2u029gsg67538wqxdfdhgttjhsjw8jzvkk8xfxxh04pmjjszyqnevkyknhclcddd5fganj75rerqdza75mwvpsepzpdd72ehaxgaz7hyw6a In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvlamrfnxu8p0psh935ay4ra7vtarddp5d4q2kf3yesqcg3au9u6c7kqumj'>nevent1q…qumj</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>And yet......<br/><br/>#ACTpol 2026-08-29T01:48:58Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs0th0t7xmdfs5h39c76qkgjeu2z2288jt6m23f2l3n5lxz4y2dkgqzyqnevkyknhclcddd5fganj75rerqdza75mwvpsepzpdd72ehaxgaz2pat9y In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsp37n9022yey5mgnk6zgtnwsdngyqn4cvvz2uyuezsjemuka368qq8sg5h6'>nevent1q…g5h6</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Most stunning day. <br/>I went to Lake Ginninderra for a walk early arvo (1st day vaguely &#39;training&#39; for next trip) and such was the weather, I somehow did the entire 7km walk....<br/><br/>Not so great now, flopped on the sofa barely able to move.

He has confirmed supply and delivered / advanced some of his election commitments. He is using influence as all would, I suspect. <br/><br/>He remains on cross bench and says he will work with all. We should give him - and the others - a chance.<br/><br/>Sorry but I don&#39;t agree he &#39;has&#39; to work with other Independents &#39;just&#39; because they are Independent. <br/><br/>I reckon they will all be negotiating and &#39;doing deals&#39; at one point or other given the election outcome, so no need for outrage yet IMHO.<br/><br/>But thats just me. <br/><br/>🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻 2024-11-09T20:46:22Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs8uy0ua80swv8z7dj7x409ycu6pte24af82xzjzqelhl47jr4mffgzyqnevkyknhclcddd5fganj75rerqdza75mwvpsepzpdd72ehaxgazvmf89h In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspql2xwceu2f38v3mdfa22ha5uff2wx76rngsapf5mvcdm9lhduqstzcr2z'>nevent1q…cr2z</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Will be interested to hear your thoughts on service.
