As for Hasbeen, Tuesday, 5 October 2010 11:47:58 AM, any talk of "20 years of High Court challenges" is just ridiculous. Unlike many other constitutions, with ours the people have the final say, under section 128. A democratically ratified constitutional amendment cannot be unconstitutional, by definition. There is simply no room for the High Court to overrule the manifest will of the people, and anybody who's worried about judges "rewriting the law" should be a staunch constitutional republican. We have the power - let's use it.
