Is Mise,

The Green vote is steadily going south; shouldn't be much longer before they go the way of the Democrats.

It's not about what would or wouldn't have hurt the Greens/APL/LNP at the Batman/Federal level, it's more about what is hurting ALL of us here in the electorates.

Plain & simple, there is not one decent pollie in the whole of Australia, and what should have happened when the "Citizenship Saga" erupted was for the G-G Cosgrove to exhibit some testicular fortitude & dissolve the Parliament in its entirety.

But even he could not prejudice his 'retirement strategy' by doing so, & thus we are stuck with the whole rotten & corrupted lot until another crises ensues or the incumbents turf poor Malcolm out on his ear.

PS: Paul1405, even 3 days dead Koala tastes alright, lightly seared over coals when you're 2 weeks into a survival course, & there are just not enough Mountain Pygmy Possums left to make a decent mouthful.

Recently in the US we had a vegan, peta activist and woman shooting up people in a place where guns are banned. The perfect candidate for the Greens and their dumbed down supporter. Of course no coverage by the abc, drum q&a etc. Funny also how a party that screams diversity have no coloured leaders among them. Why don't they come straight out and call it the party of Marxist and hypocrites.

"Plain & simple, there is not one decent pollie in the whole of Australia, and what should have happened when the "Citizenship Saga" erupted was for the G-G Cosgrove to exhibit some testicular fortitude & dissolve the Parliament in its entirety.", says Albie, and he is dead right.

The GG can do this, but I'm not sure what the procedure is. I believe that the Opposition would have to block supply a la the Fraser/Kerr removal of the dud Whitlam government. As far as I know, the GG's reserve powers are still available, and they are another reason why we should never be conned into a republic.

The sooner voters get to making a decision, the better - before we are rooted beyond any hope of redemption.
