The next leader of the Liberal party (which won’t be Scott Morrison) will have to back bold and decisive action on climate change. In the wash it will be clear that gone is the period in Aus history where a path to gov can be found without backing climate action.

When Labor is competitive in Sturt I don’t see how they don’t form government (at least in minority) from here.

The atmosphere in Richmond all week has been getting increasingly desperate amongst the ALP team. Story went untold in the media. I expect Justine will get strong preference flows from the Nats but the Greens will win this seat - just a question on whether it’s now or in future

Pretty clear that Australians are saying that we expect the next term of government to act ambitiously on climate!

Senator Pocock will be making the trip to Capital Hill when the parliament next sits. Congratulations @pocockdavid - I’ll call it first!

No doubt this was a #climateelection - Please RT. Let’s spread the word!

Andrew Constance, strongest voice in the modern Liberal party on the need for climate action, bucks the trend. #climateelection

PM on his way to concede defeat at the Sofitel Wentworth. He's just left Kirribilli with his wife, Jenny

This would have been the perfect moment for Julie Bishop if she was in the Parliament. She would have been the perfect leader to rebuild the modern Liberal party. Perhaps they need to draft her back!

Tomorrow's front page - pardon me TODAY'S front page.

Not a good election for AGL Australia - change is coming. Mike Cannon-Brookes 👨🏼‍💻🧢🇦🇺

It’s not getting much coverage but we’ve got a huge right wing vote in the northern rivers that could mean prefs flow to the discredited local Nats candidate pushing them above the ALP, leading to Labor preferences electing Mandy Nolan - Greens for Richmond and giving the Greens another seat.

Thank goodness for some sense from ABC Canberra tv tonight. Finally saying what was obvious last night. @pocockdavid can’t lose from here. Far too many progressive preference flows. The Canberra Liberals have to return back to a more progressive future as they rebuild.

Just tuned in to Sky News Australia for the latest shouting match. Incredible. Bronwyn Bishop is arguing that Libs should try to steal elections in the future by changing the system and throwing out preferential voting. It’s like the US republicans - if we can’t win, rig the rules.

When it comes to your money, tell fossil fuels to #FOFF. Flip Off Fossil Fuels from your super, power and bank.

September quarter energy market results are out. Great summary from ⁦Giles Parkinson⁩ Tl;dr renewables grew a lot, high gas and coal input costs drove prices up. reneweconomy.com.au/wind-and-solar…

Opus Dei has deep roots that go beyond NSW. When I was running for the ACT Senate our team discovered the connections into the most senior members of the conservative Canberra Liberals. We chose not to make this public given the impact on the families involved.

Very sad news. RIP Professor Steffen. A giant of the climate science community.
