Nationalists facing wipe out in Australian state election

[Soph0571]

The resurgence of Australian nationalist politics has been halted at a state election in coal-rich Queensland, with Pauline Hanson's One Nation party at risk of being almost completely wiped from the state assembly.

Australia's center-left Labor party is leading in the tight race after three-quarters of votes were counted following Saturday's poll, while Hanson's party has yet to confirm victory in a single seat.

The official result may not be known for several days although political analysts believe Labor will win the 47 seats it needs to govern in Queensland 93-seat assembly, a result that would allow it to form a government without support from independents or minor parties.

"I am confident of a Labor majority," Queensland's Labor Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk told reporters on Sunday.

This is good to see - one might hope it is part of a new wider trend?!

1. Let's hope so.

I commend the 26 countries that will not allow white jerkoff Spencer to visit their homeland. Europe suffered greatly from the two world wars. Thank the heavens they have not forgotten.
