i got as far as when CJ Morgan
mentioned unicameral
and knew i could sleep safe
in Australia tonight.

rechtub, do not let your dislike of all things ALP blind you.
Voters who put them back in power knew what they wanted.
You should confront the truth.
The other side has been so bad for so long they could not win.
In NSW my leader the head lemming is so bad I fear him more than his opponent.
In fact the only chance so very slight as it is, is that voters may think he [the opposition leader] can not be trusted!
Believe me Barry O,Farrell is trying hard to convince us he is an idiot.
In asking why Labor is doing so bad, if that is what you think, ask why your side has done much worse for so long.
And if your team was in power? for a start the well known adversity to debt may well see much savager cuts to spending and tax hikes, that from either side is the best outcome.
No gain without pain.

I think that the discussion "How to restore democracy in Queensland" at http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?discussion=2842 may also be relevant to this discussion.

To rehctub and Belly, I did stand as an independent because it seemed to me that no other candidate would raise all the important issues that I believed to be at stake in that election.

To my knowledge I was the only candidate to have anticipated that the Labor Government would attempt to privatise even more of Queensland's publicly owned assets (although Greens candidate Robert Huston did point out how the privatisation of the retail arms of Queensland's electricity had been a total shambles (see http://candobetter.org/node/1139)).

I e-mailed both Fraser and Bligh before the start of the election campaign and asked them to tell the Queensland public of any intentions to privatise any assets during the election campaign, but was ignored. I repeatedly tried to get Fraser, Bligh and Opposition leader Lawrence Springborg to debate privatisation, but was ignored by them and by the newsmedia.

the entire idea of “cleaning” the atmosphere of carbon dioxide seems a bit ridiculous when you realize that by historical levels we are living in a CO2-starved environment,

that global ocean temperatures are dropping,

that key proponents of the manmade global warming theory have been caught faking data to support their arguments,

But why let actual science get in the way of a good scare story,

Australia will continue to suffer as long as we continue to believe that we can have nine Gods in this Country, and God is a majority in Parliament. Most of what you are suffering in Queensland is because you are enslaved by the legal profession.

In a widespread and systematic attack on the civilian population, the legal profession has used its influence in the Queensland Parliament to establish a regime where no one is safe anymore. When Wayne Goss abolished the Supreme Court in Queensland in 1991,democracy died. On persistent complaints that he could not do this, the Parliament enacted a declaratory Act the Supreme Court Act 1995, but the lawyers who are Judges in Queensland have continued to oppress and enslave everyone, without any fear of the Commonwealth.

Anyone who has been before a Queensland Magistrate and mentioned the Constitution,knows that you may as well talk to a post. The Commonwealth Parliament has made this conduct a crime. It carries 25 years imprisonment,and every Supreme Court Judge and District Court Judge should be charged, lose his or her superannuation, and be reduced to the status of a criminal.

Has Kevin Rudd got the will. That is the question that requires an answer. He is an Australian but has he the ticker to do the right thing by all Australians and let the Federal Court loose. They have the power, but are too palsy walsy with their State Judge Mates, to make democracy work.

your correct peter..[i have attempted to use the constitution in qld and act/court's...i never got real far...i was going to try to appeal the high court...[re divergence states laws/clause]..falling subject to fed juristiction...but fed hasnt made laws re the plant
