Preference the greens last, good idea or bad?

I think this is his best move so far.

Nobody has ever told me how to vote. 

I know the how-to-vote cards are for the dumb-dumbs, but some of those not so dumb think that they must follow directions too.

".......Another is spoilt prats who refuse to accept who the people voted in. If the people vote in a minority that's what we get......."

People did not vote in a minority government,  the election resulted in a hung parliament,  and subsequently after tortuous negotiations by the final   leader  (not the people) eventuated  in a minority government.

Research, produced this from a few months back:
"AUSTRALIA'S flirtation with minority government has been an abject failure, a poll has found. That was the key message to come from a Newspoll published in The Australian on Thursday. Almost one in two respondents (47%) said the hung parliament had been worse for Australia."

"Just 13% said it had been better for governance. "

The people voted in a minority government, as in they did not vote for one party to be a clear winner. 

The recalcitrants in the minority govt were Abbott and crew now he threatens a doubleD if we dare to vote in a minority again. 

He is like a school yard bully and the longer he leads the more he turns me off giving his team anything but the lowest ranking the ballot paper will take.  The Libs have a deal wirth the Nationals to ensure they win. The Nats get nothing out of it but go along for the ride anyway.

I'm not a big fan of Christine Milne, I do like Senator Whish-Wilson and might give him a senate vote. I don't think  Milne is up for election this round.

I think there are going to be plenty of errors, there are thousands of people that can barely read english that will be voting, I don't think it is that they are dumb at all, it's actually quite concerning.

I would like to see you in a political quiz with Lakeland newstart. Knowledge on the subject seems to be one of his strong points.
