  4. Sticky Thread Important: Australian Politics

    A thread to discuss domestic political events that dont quite warrant their own thread. A substitute to fill the vaccume left after the big election threads. Discuss, laugh, cry. Will be more lax on spam here, as long as it's broadly Australian politics.
