The Australian Government no longer works in the interest of the Australian people.

As such, along the lines of Gandhi's "SATYAGRAHA = SOUL FORCE", I NO LONGER recognise the government - either Howard's Liberal Coalition or Beattie's Labour as LEGITIMATE political bodies with the right to determine Australian direction.

Regarding "SATYAGRAHA" - It is a form of non-violent protest where people make a, individual and personal, conscious decision to withdraw their moral support from governments and others that don't behave in a manner that the person making their own uncoerced decision deem appropriate.
