I don't fully get why qld labor are staring down the barrell of electoral wipeout. I understand the part about the way qld gov is set up leads to more of a winner take all scenario. But i don't really see what Labor have failed on so hard to warrant such vehement electoral rejection?

In other words, where'd it all go wrong?

Edit: Or right, depending on your perspective.

I mean, I don't think QLD Labor have done anything major to warrant being voted out. Unless your my Mum, who "just doesn't like Steven Miles, he speaks a little funny." Parents also watch 7 news constantly, and think youth crime is out of control.

Shakes head.

That's democracy for you, everyone can have their say, even if I don't agree with it.
