Are there any left leaning Australian political commentators that don't blindly follow The Greens and that also isn't Friendly Jordies?

I want to get a better understanding of what's going on in politics at the moment but I don't know if any politics communicators that are left leaning but also acknowledge that The Greens are a POS and are willing to point out The Labour party's many flaws while still acknowledging that they're the least bad option to vote for atm.

I've tried friendly Jordies and I like/agree with a lot of what he had to say but a lot of his videos have too much fluff and go too fast for me to fly understand what's going on. Does anyone else like this exist or is Australia cooked?

Petition for a new train line between Springwood and Richmond to use the old V-Sets on

This is half a joke and half serious in i think it would be convenient but I also have no idea about the logistics of building a train line and also have barely any clue what the terrain is like in this spot in particular. From what it looks like on maps it would theoretically only have 3 stops aswell so maybe it's not worth it but I think it would be kinda cool

Edit: How does this stupid brain dead idea have 105 upvotes? Are they all from people who have the same level of rail construction knowledge as me? Is this a situation of an idea that's so bad it's funny?

Specifically this first one of Doctor Who and The Daleks. Even if it's not available for free, it's there anywhere I can buy it for relatively cheap?

I decided to watch 1 episode(not serial) every day and then review each one on my instagram. idk why I'm posting this to be honest other than just wanting to share how much I loved every bit of it and to encourage others who may be considering watching to go for it because it's so worth it. Even the telesnap reconstructions of Marco Polo were an absolute joy to watch(apart from the yellow face). My favourite story was Keys of Marinus because I think it really took great advantage of the serialised format, giving a vastly different episode for each instalment. Hartnel was absolutely the best part about this season. I loved his commanding presence and how well he meshed with his co-stars

I also used the "TARDIS Guide" website to sorry every single story from oldest to newest and read some of the comic books that were released in between the airing of season 1 episodes. Specifically:

"The Dalek Book" and

"Doctor Who and The Daleks" cadet cigarette sweets collectable cards. I quite enjoyed those little stories as well.

I also made a playlist of all the background music used in this season that I quite enjoy listening to. I'll link it in the comments for anyone who wants to give it a listen.

If you want to start watching the classic seasons as well but don't know where to start, I recommend doing what I did. These sprayed weren't made to be binged, they were made to be watched once every weekend. So just watch one episode a day and you'll be finished with it faster than you realised.
