the laboral party is the oligarchy. they must juggle the requirements of their supporters, for being on top is not always simple or comfortable. they pass the baton back and forth from one faction to the other, but never, ever, admit that oz is not a <modifier> democracy.

oz is nothing like a democracy. just as well, because ozzians are not citizen quality people. they are 'subjects', unable to conceive of self-rule. they are brought up to accept the rule of people who are selected for arrogance, chicanery, and simple power-lust.

oz could have democracy quickly if they wanted it, and by peaceful means. but like the 'horses' they are, they line up for the saddle when their masters whistle.
