God I wish we had more than two parties here in the States. Being able to support a left-wing third party, however flawed, with a nonzero chance of electoral influence, like the Aussie Greens, would be a fucking godsend.
Gotta fuckin’ kill FPTP here. It’s killing us.
And fuck anyone who says that giving votes in the fucking legislature to a left-wing party is somehow sabotaging anti-conservative efforts. There may be a few circumstances where strategic voting is needed - but generally that’ll be coordinated on a large scale, like the massive effort in France to deny the far-right a legislative majority, not simply supporters of the less progressive party starting (metaphorical) brawls with supports of the more progressive one.

Unfortunately we need to count on liberals to free us from FPTP
