What's so bad about a world government?
Julia Gillard's in office, but who's in power ?
To me, that's half right. Labor is jumping around with the information release date while Bob Brown is looking in control of the whole process. This to me is very damaging for Labor and the Greens know it.
Labor is dancing like a cat on a hot tin roof and it's the Greens providing the solar power. I suspect Bob Brown knows exactly what he's doing and the Labor leadership are yet to wake up to it.
I think a JFK moment needs to happen to our political system to pull these clowns into line and show them they can't run around and do as they please and assassinate Australia's industry........
You may think it radical but look at the road these koala's are taking us......cull one and the rest might pull their heads in......
I can't do it ,i have a thing for dumb animals: :
There will be no escape for Labor under the government he leads.Dr S, I agree with you. Brown is the de facto PM, with a gun in Gillard's back. That is why he looks so smug all the time. I think he is starting to suffer from delusions of grandeur. He wants a world government, led by Australia (if I heard correctly), and I presume that means him. He wants to shut down coal mines, but we can't have nuclear power.................. he's in a fantasy land
If you cant do it because you have a thing for dumb animals you'd have to be supporting the ban on cattle export!!!!!!!
The Government's a joke. Stuff up after stuff up.
LABOR will rethink doing preference deals with the Greens in Victoria, after a review of the Brumby government's election defeat questioned their value.
Love them or loath them, the fact is the Greens are currently the only political party in Australia with a clear philosophy and a leadership possessing conviction.

It is an unusual time indeed when politics is mainstream conversation just about everywhere as it is right now. And the biggest issue by far is, of course, the carbon tax.And you might need your tin hat (figuratively speaking) because Aussies are not going to put up with this rubbish. There is rising anger. People are talking freely about politics, even strangers. I don't think I have ever witnessed politics to quickly become the topic of conversation - and apart from a few die-hards on forums - the consensus is that Gillard with her greens and indies have to go ASAP for the sake of the country.
The Greens only have the balance of power in the Senate when the government and the opposition do not vote together.
So if the Greens were to fulfil the potential for damage which they're showing already, the government would have to oppose their proposed legislation and hope the Coalition will do likewise, in the national interest.
However, this raises the question of what is going to be the main driver of opposition behaviour from now on. Will it truly be in the national interest, or rather an attitude toward the government of "you got yourself into this diabolical situation and we will not help you get out of it" even if this means the best interests of Australia and its people are badly served as a result?
i.e. wouldn't it be fairly natural for the Coalition to want to see the government's stakes fall even further as community anger mounts, thus ensuring the electorate views the Coalition as more definitely the saviour?
They're all politicians first, and guardians of the best interests of Australians second, imo.
