Mindless Liberals Embrace Ebola - Video

The WA Liberals have declared victory in former treasurer Troy Buswell's recently-vacated seat of Vasse, despite a swing against the party.
With just over 81 per cent of the by-election's vote counted, Liberal candidate Libby Mettam has secured 53.4 per cent in the two-candidate preferred vote, putting her on track to retain the seat for the party.
But Nationals' candidate Peter Gordon has secured 46.5 per cent, indicating a swing to the party in the South West seat.
The results can be found on the ABC elections page.
Ms Mettam was the frontrunner in the safe Liberal seat, vacated after the resignation of the hugely popular but troubled Mr Buswell last month.
The Liberals won the seat with a 21.2 per cent margin in 2013.
Mr Buswell attracted 57 per cent of the primary vote at the last election.
Ms Mettam said the result had come as a "relief".
"For any new member that has come into Vasse for the first time, the people of Vasse have always made them work for it, and they certainly have done that on this occasion," she said.

Liberals declare victory in South West seat of Vasse, but suffer swing against
October 19, 2014, 1:56 am
The Liberals have declared victory in the West Australian seat of Vasse, although there has been a significant swing against the party.
Libby Mettam, a journalist-turned-media adviser for MP Barry House, currently holds 44.36 per cent of the vote, after 81.21 per cent was counted on Saturday night.
Her closest competitor was Busselton businessman Peter Gordon from the Nationals who secured 28.53 per cent from the early count.
In the two-candidate preferred vote, Ms Mettam secured 53.45 per cent while Mr Gordon held 46.55 per cent.
It was a 14 per cent drop for the Liberal Party since the 2013 election.
Since postal votes can be accepted until Thursday, counting will resume then.
Ms Mettam campaigned that she wanted to see local health and education services upgraded in line with the region's growing population, while also protecting natural assets.
She told a public forum in the lead-up to the election that she was willing to cross the floor on the issue of fracking in the South West region if it was what people in her electorate wanted.
The other four candidates in the by-election were structural engineer Michael Baldock for the Greens, Wayne Barnett for the Australian Christians, and independents Peter Johnson and Teresa Van Lieshout.
