Well said Lexi, I have watched question time from the day it was first possible, when ever I could.
I listened to it and any parliamentary broadcast on ABC radio too.
It has always been as it now is.
We are not well served by what appears to be a high school bully's fight.
Both sides place mates in the house ,some ex trade unionists like the current left leader, an export from England we can do without.
But we should look first not at them, we out do them hands down here, some at least.
While my mission was to remind we should look at every view, every idea every answer,others reminded me.
Of the reality, they come to put views they can not in real life.
To insult and defame, in the end them selves.
Wednesday Australian time, a debate begins that will change the world, and maybe the way we talk and read about issues.
British Parliament sits, the inquiry in to phone hacking and much more gets a move on.
13 now have been arrested more to come.
If any of us, me you, Col, owned news international we would use it for our thoughts and biases, lets be honest.
But to break the law?
Communications will never be the same as this unfolds.

What a DUD!
What was I thinking about?
We did not need such a thread.
Just look at us,read the posts, consider the views expressed.
I can not work out what cactus said, even stood on my head but no idea.
Got the all men are evil bit, and the not only women betray partners.
Read the polls, saw the comments Julia is gone but maybe not until some one wants the ejection seat.
Have a few candidates but they are also put up as full time replacements.
So forget all views have value, I no longer think that.
Let us dive in to the mud and have fun!

its your thread to change or use as you chose

""Got that all men are evil bit,
and the not only women betray partners.""

[often we say things we dont believe...i heard yesterday..that the waverage conversation contains 2 lies every ten minutes]

that we people
lie at least[average]..of 50 times per day

mate you and i know we only tell things as they are
[or as we think them to be]

or in the hope others can help find the truth
[but mate the truth isnt in them [or us]
only god knows it all]

YOU..."Read the polls,
saw the comments Julia is gone
but maybe not until some one wants the ejection seat.""

awe mate
what i love about you is your loyalty
[just like ol shadow...who i have many disgreements with too]

[no emotion]..the same voice wether its saying good or bad
the same tone wether its truth ot lie

At least we agree on that Belly

What a DUD!

Dear Johan (OUG),

Did you by any chance watch "Q ans A." last night?

People who know our Prime Minister and work with
her seem to hold her in high esteem. Describing
her as a decent human being, an intelligent leader,
and extremely capable. I wasn't aware, as I suspect
many Australians aren't - that so far, since the
election the Government has steered 130 bills
through Parliament. This is no small feat. Bills
dealing with health and the disabled being amongst
them. She is determined to push on with the agenda -
and will achieve a great deal before her term ends.

Criticising someone and jumping on the Opposition's
bandwagon is so easy - isn't it? But at least this
Prime Minister is achieving something for us all.
And BTW - the heads of the National Bank and Westpac,
(two of Australia's biggest banks) have supported the
carbon tax. As they showed on "Q and A," last
night - we won't be badly affected (maybe by 1 cent)
at all - people should listen to the experts - not
the mentally deficient Opposition - with their own axes
to grind - whose "direct Action," plan will cost Australian
tax payers more than double what the Government has planned
and won't achieve anything except for certain - more
cuts in infrastructure and essential services. The only ones
who will benefit from their schemes (as always) will be
those who have always reaped their benefits - the rich!
