Oh yeah. However, even worse is the possibility that the Libs will have a majority in the Senate and won't even need to bribe the independent/minor party Senators, to get legislation passed. Thus, no doubt we'll soon see the total sell-off of Telstra, plus a load of new industrial laws that will totally screw the workers in favour of the employers, and the complete decimation of our public health and education services.

It should be a time to cheer but it ain't gonna make any difference.

Yep, pretty much the same system.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yesterday, and after he joined the ALP.

Okay, Gus, you need to stop watching the German dubs or you'll have no brain left.

No, the Australian Labor Party. The Liberals are the conservative party here.
