I'm struggling to understand what's going on here, even if I click up to view context. If we're talking "two republican parties" with a lower case R, I'd think that would be Greens and (some of) Labor.

If we're talking about analogies to American politics, surely that would be LNP, One Nation, and United Australia Party, but the latter has just 1 Senator and zero state representatives, so maybe we're ignoring it to get to 2 Republican parties. Or maybe they meant Liberal and National as two parties?

@Zagorath @unionagainstdhmo
Allow me to focus on the anti-protest law.
How did that arise from the workers?
Isn't industrial action a fotrm of protest?

I genuinely don't have any clue what you're trying to say here, sorry.

@Zagorath
I love most things about the labor party, but the anti-protest laws passed on their watch. The law is undemocratic and does not represent my rights as a worker. Democracy under attack https://www.hrlc.org.au/news/2024/07/03/protest-peril
