Laws that would force social media companies to police misinformation and outright lies on their platform have been formally abandoned by the federal government. Laws to restrict gambling advertising will also not proceed this year.
The Shit Party and the Shit-Lite Party are both too regressive. Albo is not being progressive but Dutton would be even worse, dragging us kicking and screaming into a second Great Depression.
We need a viable third Party.
Can everyone remember in the 1990s when the Democrats held the balance of power and were able to Keep the Bastards Honest?
The Greens aren’t an option, because they are too head-in-the-clouds to be able to maintain the economy.
But for every fiscally responsible policy they put out there, there is some other policy that is completely unworkable.
Still, unworkable policies are still better than no policy.
And if the Greens were in power, they would probably attract the more progressive and fiscally responsible politicians into their ranks, which would result in more practical policies.
Edit:
I do vote for the Greens first in every election (after any other special interest parties that are more appealing) and the LNP last (ahead of any fascist parties that are less appealing).
The more Green preferences ahead of the major Party’s, the better.

To be fair, they at least want to end negative gearing, capital gains discount and ensure companies pay their fair share of tax.
There’s better options but I’ll still preference them over the major parties
