Just worked ten hours counting votes, didn't get home until ten minutes ago (1.40am). A few quick notes:
*the right-wing Liberal Party have fallen to pieces, losing about twenty seats to go from narrow majority to clear opposition
*the supposedly-left-wing-but-actually-centrist Labor Party are all but certain to form government, but may not reach the 76 seats needed for outright control because
*there is a
massive crossbench, both out of a strong vote for the Greens and a big movement of "teal independents" who are generally conservative but advertising themselves as different to the LNP - as well as being pro-climate action
*things will be very interesting
