Yes bury the dead, but we will have to put up with the STINK of them for years to come, thanks a lot labour
Gillard Labor has been finished for a long time.
It's just unfortunate the electorate has to wait to bury the dead.
Well here is something from a different angle.

Agree with the article, Joea. Even if labor change leader, it's unlikely to change the underlying driving in the wrong direction. A new leader would have to start listening, quit the lies and start representing the wishes of the majority.
Labor's nadir has been a team effort, the work of a party that operates as an extension of the big unions rather than the 82 per cent of ''working Australians'' who do not belong to unions. Federal Labor can share the blame for its dismal 27 per cent standing in the polls, not shunt it onto their leader.
The low standing of the labor government is a team effort - not just Gillard's doing. From the above article;
The Premier, Barry O'Farrell, has told the NSW Parliament his government will seek to pass urgent legislation to ensure an administrator can be appointed to the scandal-plagued HSU East branch.
The move follows an application to the Federal Court this morning by six branches of the Health Services Union for an administrator to be appointed.
The application was put before Justice Geoffrey Flick this morning.
Workplace Relations Minister Bill Shorten has made a similar application.
Justice Flick was told the federal government may not have the jurisdiction to seek the order.
The court heard a minister had not attempted to make such an order in 100 years.
12 bloody submarines!! Why would we need twelve?
We need 4, two based in Darwin, two based on the east coast.
Any more than 4, then they will just run into one another.
joea
How many do we have at the moment?
6 Collins Class subs.
How many are operational? 1.....
Don't stress too much joea, if all goes to plan and Gillard+Co. get booted out in 18 months time, this submarine plan by the current Government will get amended with a new Government in power.

Cannot see anybody coming from the south.
Any more than 4, then they will just run into one another.

Not half an Age journo is she - any opposition to the carbon tax and mining tax is 'shouty, superficial and shallow'.Wow - check out this article

It is mind-numbing paralysis. Labor's best chance is a time-machine, or for someone to click their fingers so they can awake from this nightmare.
Tony Abbott could take control of both houses of Parliament at the next election, and Labor's legacy is gone.
Carbon tax gone. Mining tax gone. Prospect of history judging this Labor government and this turbulent period in national affairs more kindly than the shouty, superficial, shallow present verdict ”” gone.

Carbon compo 'not enough' for poorest households
Families and pensioners will soon be getting the first round of compensation for the incoming carbon tax, but there are fears it will not be enough for some low income households.
A new report into Australia's spending habits found that while incomes have kept up with cost of living pressures across the board, electricity prices were growing more sharply than other costs.
Told you so
This will be a disaster, the compo won't even touch the sides and Gillard will be off with her boyfriend on a PM's perks for life.
This will effect everyone, this is just the first report of what I considered an inevitable outcome.
