The point you miss is that was not the case in a lot of these places until recent years and many people baling out the garage find it hard to support a climate change denier when the threat to where they live alternates between record high temps leading to bush fires then record high temps leading to flooding.
From what I read where Morrison was mostly hurt was his insistence in concentrating on his own "red wall" mining areas to maintain support at the expense of his traditional support in the more affluent areas who went over the the Teal parties - wonder if the Tories are taking note?
I suggest you look back into history blue and start with the early seventies when Lismore was under higher flood waters.
Most bushfires are caused by lightning strikes , arsonists , cigarettes and a build up of fuel and an unwillingness to remove that fuel in an efficient manner plus some ludicrous red tape that doesn't allow for proper clearing in native forests for example.
its like our ludicrous laws to ban nuclear plants that we should have been building many decades ago when it was much cheaper and could compliment the incredible work done out of Lucas Heights.
Their highest 5 year temperature average were recorded over a century ago.
Climate warming is real but to link it to floods and fire is not based in science and our chief scientist has alluded to this fact.
I can assure you the floods and bushfires and drought in this country will continue long after we decarbonise.
You may not have heard of Cyclone Tracy which occurred long before Al Gore went to University.
What we don't so well is mitigate well and use for example the skill of our first nations people that lived with fire flood and drought in this country long before the English began to inhabit it.
What we don't do well is build to the climate but we won't see the rich and pompous selling their harbourside mansions or their C02 guzzling lifestyles all we will see is them spouting we must take action on climate change and that includes all those Teal and Green phonies very few of them true Conservationists happy to continue to emblazon their fossil fuel driven lifestyles.
As the former Labour Bill Shorten said the affluent areas of Melbourne , Sydney and Brisbane having been going Green and Teal went Green and Teal because the vast majority of them are affluent and have little to worry about.
They are taking votes off Labour as well in ever increasing numbers.
They particularly the Teals stand for little in reality and have little real empathy and will to change for the better for all and don't care about anybody but themselves but will be the first to complain if the lights go out.
they were funded by a self righteous pompous son of our first billionaire who didn't want to run for parliament himself the last impacted by food shortage and increasing power prices and I suggest you look at some of the reasons why the gap between the rich and the poor is ever increasing with the power and wealth in the hands of elites that levy government to make them richer at the expense of those that place them into Canberra.
Morrison was a weak leader and he had to go although I have little faith in Labour and the vast majority of those struggling and many of those wishing a better life for their children will struggle and living standards for those will continue to deteriorate.
Labour are coming from a primary vote of 32 per cent yes 32 per cent their lowest primary since 1910 could you imagine Biden being in office with a 32 per cent primary vote in the US.
