Queensland’s Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has won a third term in office, declaring victory for her party and entering the history books as the first female to win three terms as leader at both a state or federal level.
The Labor leader is set to form a majority government, with the computers predicting the ALP to win 52 seats, to the LNP’s 34 – after the state government was rewarded by voters for their staunch handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
This spells bad news for the Prime Minister, as his Coalition Government leads Australia into a severe recession with Queensland voters indicating they aren’t buying what the Liberals are selling anymore.
While Scotty depended on the Sunshine state to get him over the line in the 2019 election, the weekend’s results only confirmed that Queenslanders still swing as erratically as they always have, pending on how they feel on the day.
With all but two states now run by Labor, the pressure is also on the remaining Liberal Premiers to get their shit together before the Labor party paints every single state red.
With the South Australian Liberals in the midst of a identity crisis that has seen resignations and factional white-anting right throughout the party, the NSW government is looked at as the closest thing to a gold standard of coalition governance.
This is despite all of Hot Mess Gladys’s recent boy trouble, that has seen her make headlines day after day for her chaotic trials and tribulations as a high-functioning single gal trying to sort the grain from the chaff in Sydney’s dating scene, and all that ICAC stuff.
With the Prime Minister now pretending he supports the Queensland election results by sucking up to the returning Premier Palaszczuk – Gladys Berejiklian has been overcome with jealousy.
The ALP’s Queensland election landslide have spurred Hot Mess Gladys into a curious deep dive of Annastacia Palaszczuk’s Instagram late on Saturday evening.
However in her efforts to find cringeworthy or perhaps career-ruining photos of her Northern contemporary, Gladys has gone and fucked everything up… By accidentally liking a photo from a bit over two years ago. At 3AM
It’s a photo that shows Palaszczuk and Morrison posing together during his early visits to Queensland after the 2018 libspill.
Gladys rushes to unlike, but she knows Annastacia and her team will be keeping a close eye on notifications as they party throughout the evening.
This is worse than the time the NSW Premier spilt a berry smoothie in her Suzuki Swift on the same day as her personal relationship with corrupt Wagga MP Daryl Maguire was exposed during an ICAC hearing.
Hot Mess Gladys screams into her pillow, before composing herself.
“Love this for me!!!” she says aloud.
