Examinator, I reckon you're saying the same thing I did about the Dem's, just more specifically identifying the process involved.

since women are gaining more representation everyday,
a male proposal to restrict representation
has the odour of misogyny,
especially when the motive involves
the prediminantly male
"useless time-servers and party-hacks,
and the "favours" system,
corruption etc that infests our Parliaments".
speak for yourself, Maximillion.

the whistler has a point[but the thing is those woman who do get into higher positions in politics..only endup out bloking the males].there is too much testosterone in poli-tricks

proper politics would see govt become like the mother..[not the strict diciplinarian father]..the last thing we need is more judge judy/anna blight/magot thatchers[pirates]..running the hen house..[that seems full of living feather dusters..[roosters]..ruling the roost

woman are just as capable of party loyalty[and partisan politricks as any male]..and likely to..in the end outplay,,,the feminised males now running things..[look at the simple beatup of the bird pig mutant flue,..that is closing down schools..[lest the children get a sniffle]

its a boys club..full of sisies at the moment..[that are so full of girlie girlie fears one woulds easilly sumise..that wiman allready run both houses..[a pox be on both of em]..

be they federated or statuted

[its time they didnt get their life-time gifts and bonus..[post their 'service'..[sir-vice]..for a few terms of self service]..we wont even get into the intrenched..[inbred elites running the public self/service..as a privatised franchise..[for the other big multinational business boys clubs]

I can not understand or take whistler as anything other than lost in a world of her own.
Far from reality and the world as it is or ever will be.
We have a woman as deputy PM
Only complete blindness could bring her to say men are keeping women down.
Right now headlines cry about untrustworthy politicians.
Do not fear Foxy, they are fabrications, watch closely, more real danger to Turnbulls leadership exists than Rudd or Swans.
Here is the very root of why we let the wool be pulled over our eyes.
In the 1975 was it? the Ship Lake Illawarra hit a Bridge and bought it down in Tasmania.
The then opersition blamed the ALP PM for it!
We must consider what we want from our countrys parlement, truely want.
Are majority happy with the current senate make up?
That foolish senator who thinks climate change is not happening?
We do not need to fragment our house, more like the SA senator for that river and against poker machines?
Shall we vote whistler into the senate to confuse us all about womens rights?
And sorry CJ Morgan and others but greens have much power, more to come after the up comeing election, how many are happy to see Bob Brown with that much power?
We must change politics from within the existing partys only they can win government, few take the time to join and act in the party of their choice.
If you branch is privatly owned like mine is I DO NOT BLAME YOU.

All politicians are simply people like you and me, but they have been led astray by the lawyers in Parliament. The Democrats were particularly led astray, by their absolute failure to recognize that sixty five percent of the population of Australia claim to be Christian, to a greater or lesser degree.

There was only one party, that voted to abolish prayers in the Parliament of the Commonwealth. They hold no seat whatsoever since. There was one party that thought they had the Christian vote rusted on. They were stopped at the pass by a leader who recognized the great truth, that Australians want a Christian Leader, and would not vote for an atheist. He only just won the leadership, but the rest is history.

I upset a lot of you by asserting that our system is Christian. I ask you to consider the Prayer that the Parliament of the Commonwealth says: It is the Lord’s Prayer, lifted straight out of the Sermon on the Mount, in Matthew 6 verses 9-13. Who is going to argue with the sentiments expressed in it, Hallowed be thy Name, Thy Kingdom come, finds it expression in the creation of Royal courts, Thy will be done on earth, as it is in Heaven. How on earth can the will of Almighty God be done on earth, as it is in Heaven, while we have no Christian courts. The Parliament of the Commonwealth is accepted as a court, and a Christian one at that, but the politicians, have extended their long fingers, to abolish the courts of Our God. They are now State Courts, not Christian courts.

Give us this day our daily bread. This is a very charitable prayer, and finds practical expression in the Centrelink system: A bit like St Vinnies and Anglicare on steroids. Centrelink is the charity arm of a great State church, and sometimes as cold as charity. We pray for the Parliament of the Commonwealth to deliver us from evil. They have done this, but we have a blockage in the gatekeepers at the Courts. They fear jury trial

Overheard in the House of Reps. Canberra:

"You're the reason God created
the middle finger!"
