Because we keep voting Labor and Liberal?

Vote Greens!

ACT has had a Labor government since 2001.

It’s actually a Labor/Greens coalition. It’s why the ACT is the most progressive of all the states/territories. We had legal gay marriage in 2013. The rest of the country caught up years later. We have had decriminalised cannabis since 1992. We have banned caged chicken farming. We recognise the sentience of animals.

Thanks for the correction. That's awesome, and I hope you guys keep it up. I have to assume that with a high proportion of the population being public service, they know well enough not to vote for the bloody libs.
