No one has answered the question;
What system has worked better than the Westminster System ?

Bazz,
The Swiss system !

Dear Bazz,

The question has been answered but it's beyond the
comprehension of some who can't see that our country
would benefit from an Australian being able to get
the chance at having a crack at the top job.

As a country we would grow up in the eyes of many in the
rest of the world because we're still seen as a British
colony because we still have their ghead of state and their
flag on ours.

We'd get our own national identity, our own flag and finally
we would be able to sort out our own Constitution and make
sure it serves us and not a foreign monarch.

However, it all should not be about benefits - but about
growing up and not having the PM ring up Mrs Windsor and
tell her which military officer/ lawyer he has chosen for us
to represent her in Canberra.

That would be a major benefit.

That would be a major benefit.
Foxy,
Symbolically perhaps but how do you see this transgressing into economical betterment ?
You really need to come up with something the working class can relate to. You've been a Public Servant in Libraries so you have no way of knowing what's important for blue collar families.

individual,

Actually I've had a very varied career. Not only
in public service and libraries. Plus I've also grown
up the western suburbs of Sydney. You can't really
make assumptions about people you don't know.

As for economic benefits?

How does it benefit us to be tied to the Crown?

Foxy,
Being a constitutional monarchy has brought stability, the stability that makes Australia such a good place to live; that’s why so many people from other countries wish to live here.

Example, France is a Republic but people are risking their lives in small boats to get across the Chanel and into a Monarchy.

As for the flag, do you or any others see Hawaii as being a colony of Britain because of its flag?
