"I for one welcome our insect overlords" - The Politics Thread

[dibo]

So awesome thing today (N.B. not awesome).

The Libs released a policy advocating mandatory opt-out internet filtering, and sent people out to advocate for it (in detail - see here http://www.zdnet.com/au/coalition-confirms-internet-filtering-by-default-7000020272/). Turnbull was on TripleJ advocating it too.

Fast forward a few hours, and Turnbull gets on Twitter:

The Coalition has never supported mandatory internet filtering. Indeed, we have a long record of opposing it.

Policy released today wrongly indicated we supported an opt out system of internet filtering. That is not our policy and never has been.

Policy disappears from the website, Coalition gets into full speed reverse.

f**king shambles.

In a LOL-worthy night, it looks like Clive Palmer will actually end up in Parliament thanks to Labor and Greens preferences in his seat.

As if that guy needs more perks...
