Fish typically vote Green, Stui. Unhappily for the Greens, most of the fish in the electorate were dead by Saturday.

I make no comment on the intelligence of the average fish.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I agree. If there are going to be people of his ilk in our Parliaments, better that they be in the NSW Parliament than in one that affects us.

NSW and Victoria have very different cultures. I take a glancing interest as I spent all my childhood and youth there.

Me too as I was born there and spent my childhood there - although post this election I was wondering if I could apply to get my birth certificate changed!

Then I realised I can leave Balmain just need to white out NSW :P

Hah, I was born in Vic due to the crap state of NSW rural hospitals, raised in NSW but just being over the border we were more Victorian in culture than NSW.

I'm a New South Welshman :lol: I was born in Newcastle because I was 7 weeks prem and mum was meant to be back in Melbourne in time to have me here. So I've got a NSW birth certificate but spent less than a month of my 40 years up there.

One silver lining: Fred Nile may have finally been sent to the glue factory after 38 years of being the NSW Parliament's resident dinosaur. Perhaps Mark Latham is good for something after all...

They do.

Victoria has culture.

NSW doesn't.
