What am I meant to do with a block of Philadelphia cream cheese?

Hello is anyone out there?

I think the Pauline might just do it. Got no evidence to support though
spread it on those flat burger buns from woolies it's awse

I've already voted libs then RUAP CEC Lab in the Senate

>spread it on those flat burger buns
Do I heat them up in the microwave?

I have tasted some of the cheese and it seems kind of sour. I don't think I am going to like it.

>voted libs
Why would you do something silly like that?

is it fresh? (the cheese I mean)

you can also smear the shit onto a rice cake
celery stick
carrot
cucumber
on toast with mustard

loosen up a bit and just have at it you're an Aussie do what ya fuckin want

>Will Based Pauline win a spot in the Senate?
She has very widespread support and I honestly think she's going to romp it in.

couldn't vote Lab in the lower house and none of the minors were interesting to me. I'm worried my seat will fall to Lab so I wanted to vote directly against that.

let the name calling begin

>romp it in
I hope so m8. But she has a history of falling just short of victory.

>Not reading this thread in a thick Aussie accent

it's a start. now win a sporting medal or Oscar and say you trained for it in Sydney we will claim you straight away

>is it fresh? (the cheese I mean)
I think so. I bought it yesterday.

>let the name calling begin
Poofter lizard.

Did you delete one bad post just to make another one m8?

I have pity for you. What is going wrong in your life?

Yes, I need help.

>bought yesterday
Should be right it does sometimes have a tangy smell
>poofter lizard
didn't see that one coming

you me and one frenchy. pretty quiet.

did you vote Xenophon

I've met Malcolm on four occasions over the span of 10 odd years.

I want pauline hanson as PM

Cool how'd that come about what line of work you in

Working as 2ic for my polling booth (~$700 gross for one days work). Ask me anything.

>one frenchy
I think he is Russian.

>did you vote Xenophon
Yes, in the lower house. Voted for One Nation and a few others first in the senate.

How did you get that job m8?

Yeah, but hasn't that been running for an MP spot? Senate is a state-wide vote, so us rednecks can gang up a little better

Going to vote at the consulate for Lib Dems on the 2nd

Can't be a more based party.

Voting Libs for house because my other options are literally Greens or Lab

My entire family and I voted ALP.

For reasons involving the property market. Labor and Greens are going to go full communist mode on property.

I signed up previously just through their website 2 years ago during the last election as a declaration vote issuing officer. Did a good enough job and then out of the blue they called me up offering 2ic. Once you're in their system you stay on it basically. Very easy to get a job too. No interview needed. Its probably too late now to get one.

yeh I'm pretty flagnorant whoops sorry comrade
Yeh a lot of people are gonna vote minors this election you can see it in the polling.
Personally I actually think the libs have got a better handle on MY mindset (definitely more so than Labour) for where I'm at in the job market etc... But I don't want a fuckin big business free for all so I went minors in the Senate as I'm sure quite a few will. be interesting to see what mix we get, but I'm pretty sure no one party will hold the balance through both houses that's for sure...

Wow the Anglosphere is so busy except Canada the most irrelevant country.

Negative gearing is ruining the property market for first home owners.
However im voting lib purely because of labs stance on immigration

You guys already had a chance to vote.

You chose Weed Man.

You still got a raging bushfire though right? Preeeetttyyy jeeeaaalloouuss

m8 she has run and lost for senate in Qld and NSW in the past. She also lost running for NSW state upper house.

Do you own a home yet?

What do you mean by full communist what do you envisage

...

top kek

Property prices aren't going anywhere, even if they do eventually pop, it's not going to pop like it did in Japan or the United States.

Negative gearing is keep rental costs down right now for all the people who can't afford to buy. At least right now people can rent and save for a house. If you take negative gearing away rents will increase and people will be stuck renting unable to ever save for a deposit.

Also; Greens want to take away pensions from elderly people who are living in million dollar homes so they will be forced to reverse mortgage. I have grand parents on both sides who living million dollar properties and I don't want to lose that future inheritance.

What's he like lad?

I haven't really been keeping track. In any case, I've noticed alot of support for her this time around, even shopkeepers having pamphlets in open display on their front counters.

>that feel when you seat is "safely liberal or labor" and has been for 30+ years
>that feel when you vote literally doesn't matter
>no infrastructure construction bribes like the swing seats
what do?

> Negative gearing is keep rental costs down right now for all the people who can't afford to buy

why do you think they can't afford to buy now?

The only Federal politician I have met is Jamie Briggs. He was handing out HTVs for the liberals at an SA state election.

He got pissy when I told him I hadn't voted liberal. I was only bantering but he couldn't hide his immature reaction. Complete tool. Had no banter at all.

>Negative gearing is ruining the property market for first home owners.
Nah, it's just an easy target. Neg gearing has been around since the 80's. The property market didn't really boom until the 2000's.

Yeah she has got s lot of publicity this time around and seems to be running a pretty good campaign.

She will do better now she is back in Qld. When she ran for senate in NSW in 2013 she only got 1.22% of the vote.

The banks didn't start going nutso with their lending policies until the 2000s.

They even loaned to my mother to buy a rental property even though she is poor as fuck and can't manage her finances at all.

Why is our election so boring compared to all the other elections going on?

My vote is pretty much pointless.

Fuck this shit.

It was nice of him to let you cuck his wife that many times. Is he good at prepping the bull?

He prepped Turnbull.

Labor is $4 on sportsbet i might throw a lazy tenner on them. May aswell vote for them also

Very bad attitude you have there m8.

A real downer.

Vote for Pauline or RUAP or CEC

you will feel better regardless of outcome

then drink beer in local wearing flag shirt

Because nothing changes no matter who wins. Turnbull is a compromise candidate, Shorten is irrelevant as fuck.

But if Lab wins give it a year and as soon as he's unpopular, PM Bill will become PM Tanya.

I would've voted Liberal but they keep trying to jew me with uni fees.

Is it just me, or is this the most lose/lose boring as fuck election we've had in a while.

Fuck both of these losers, I'm voting ALA or Family First.

I am starting to think Labor has a chance of winning.

Even just one week ago I thought Coalition would win comfy. Now I think anything is possible. Shorten seems to have come out of the campaign best.

Already voted. One Nation and shooters of course. I am curious to see if the situation in europe influences the nationalist vote in aus.

Views on Clive Palmer?

>Based Pauline
Would you finger her in a nightclub mates?

she has kept in pretty good trim.

senate is where it counts m8 its a DD after all

FriendlyJordies is trying SO HARD to try and make /auspol/ labor, it's pathetic.

When half the country are immigrants its pretty fucking difficult to hope for nationalism retard

>if the situation in europe influences the nationalist vote in aus
I think it will. Nationalism is still a small movement though. But definitely has seen growth in the last 12 months.

Higgins here. I don't like le toaster woman and want to see her gone, but the only candidate that can beat her is from the fucking Greens. What do?

RUAP in HoR
LDP, ON, SF&F top 3 in senate

I'm not pure white so I'm pretty sure my finger would get rejected at her borders...

YES GOY VOTE LIBERAL THERES NO REASON TO LIMIT IMMIGRATION

I remember this comment. I made a dad joke in reply.

But that was yesterday. Are you copy pasting m8?

This is exactly my feel and I voted basically the exact same way.

How awesome would it be if LDP or something won a bunch of seats?

Retiring, none of his senators or ex-senators will survive the election.

Funny bloke though

I think it was two days ago and I'm asking again. I still don't know. I'll probably put Jason Ball second last and Kelly last.

But he's a hardcore greens guy. At least labor isn't gonna suck 50 billion out of our medicare though like Liberal will.

Nah m8 I reckon she will have let some non-white fingers into her skirts before. She is not that sort of racist.

As in, Jeff Higgins? That faggot storm chaser?

Anyone voting for the Xenomorph here?

WE DON'T CARE

YOURE NOT IMPORTANT TODAY

WE ARE

No, the seat of Higgins in Melbourne.

>Reducing immigration to 70,000 from 200,000+ per year

sounds good to me

>and Kelly last
Sounds like a good move. I hate that face.

Vote to leave lad

Jordan Bill would be out in two years if he was elected, replaced by pseudo-greens candidate Tanya Plibersek. Truly a JUST moment for Australia if that was the case.

I voted Xenophon and it gave me an erection. I had to wait half an hour before I could walk down the street to put my vote in the post.

>falling for the blatant scare campaign of labor
BEST GOY

>In 2009, William heard then Prime Minister Kevin Rudd declare his support for "a big Australia" with a population of 40 million. He was shocked to discover that the Liberal/National, Labor and Greens parties also supported very high immigration and rapid population growth. This galvanised him into action and in 2010 he founded what is now the Sustainable Australia party.

I dare you to disagree with this when you look at all the overpopulated shitholes in the world and the endgame of overpopulation in Japan

>Nationalism is still a small movement

What happened to us? When I think about the stories my father/grandfather told me about how Australia used to be it just depresses me.

You haven't been important since 1945 and never will be again.

>Liberal party is free market as they come BUT WE'RE TOTALLY NOT FREE MARKET ON MEDICARE THAT'S WHERE WE DRAW THE ARBITRARY LINE GOYS

Good goy

>Jew Zealand not existing both sides

Bloody rippa of a telegram m8

>scare campaign
The best thing to scare people with is the truth.

Libs haven't had the guts to make Medicare privatization official policy, but there is no doubt they want to do it.

Liberlas have:
>added 15 dollars to my doctor bill 4 no rasin
>keep giving coal and mining companies 6 billion a year in subsidies 4 no rasin
>keep negative gearing despite it costing 8 billion in taxpayers money
>going to cut services to get the national debt back into the black while still giving loads of tax breaks and corporate handouts at the same time
>refuse to have property tax because people like Joe Hockey own 5 properties

The only stupid goy here is anyone thinking Liberal would be a good choice ever again.

How bout you vote LEAVE

our fucking thread

Yeah, the cheap credit definitely fueled it. I have an investment property - not for the tax benefits, but because the rent from it makes it cash-neutral so I can afford to pay it off and have a passive income when I go into retirement. I'm doubtful that we'll even have access to our superannuation by the time I'm hanging my boots up.

>I'm doubtful that we'll even have access to our superannuation

why? the companies won't all go under, and if they do you'll be forced to buy into new companies

Noice m8

Probably going to preference them in senate, don't think they're running lower house candidates in my seat (McEwan - VIC)

ATTENTION FAGGOTS:

Unlike most of you, my lower house vote counts. I live in an extremely marginal seat, Labor won by 0.3% last election. Who should I preference - Labor or Liberal?

I used to always have libs sitting in my first 3 preferences. They are now relegated to greens/labor tier in my opinion.

My policy is always to put the sitting member last.

whoever panders most to your own self interest and set of values and phobias

don't let Sup Forums decide
