Community Independents and Greens holding the balance of power is our only hope of an improved future. Even then, we await to see how prepared they are to make much needed progress.
I have little faith that either leader will rise to the challenge that you set for them in your final paragraph. Both appear trapped in the old paradigm. Dutton lacks the ‘moderate’ Liberals. Mainly because there are so few moderates left in the Liberal Party (AKA Teals) to temper his policies and rhetoric. Albanese is still bitter and twisted by the games that the Greens played during the Rudd/Gillard/Rudd era so he is unwilling to create a coalition with them

I think it’s time the parties either changed with the times or got out of the way… DL
