        I’m not about to vote liberal, but feel disappointed by some Labor decisions. The anti-protest law in particular seem to have bipartisan support despite democratic resistance. Protests over freedom of association were once the backbone of union membership and strength.

        That’s true.

        The Greens proportionally deserve 18.4 seats, but have only 4.

        Labor deserves 48.9 seats but has 68.

        LNP deserves 53.6, but has 58.

        One Nation deserves 7.4, has 0.

        It’s actually a very easy calculation to do yourself. Literally just 150 × percentage 1st preference votes. Obviously it’s not perfect, because if you change the voting system you also change how parties campaign, which changes how the votes turn out. But it’s a good rough idea.

        But uhh…I’m not really sure how this is relevant to this thread.
