I honestly don't know anything paints, I hate politics, but not as much as I hate the freaking current 'leaders' of this (soon to be) ruined nation!

Hoping others can explain all concerned and give some insight into whether or not we actually having a decent chance at getting rid of the tossers in charge .....

No, it was just another lie. Abbott said he would go to DD if budget not passed. Now says he won't call DD.

DD can be called by the government to resolve deadlock between house of reps and senate. TA would be mad to call DD. And I, as much as I would love to see him kicked out and fading into oblivion, am very worried that many voters are too impressed with PUP, and would vote for them. Palmer is too unpredictable to be given even more power than he has now. I am happy PUP is putting brakes on LNPs damaging policies but I do not trust them not to develop into something even more worrying than LNP.

Everyone had their chance at the last election. The majority won, so we all just need to live with it until the next election when you get a chance to vote again.

There is no way I could watch/listen to Bolt no matter who he had on he would have to be the most fake unconvincing person I have ever had the misfortune to tune into for 5mins on one occassion.

Abbott repeatedly stated that he would go to a DD rather than deal with independents or minor parties and that is why people are talking about what he said about a DD.

Abbott is both a repeat liar and anti-democratic then.

I don't trust him, I have no respect for him and I would never ever vote for the Liberal party while he is still a serving member......front/back bench or throne room.

OK I don't watch much TV either, as you, I'm mostly on the computer, where it's easy to check the TV programme. I check the Yahoo news page, click on the TV link, then the TV guide tab:

I'm sure it will be aligned to to 4pm WA time, anyway.

Well your vote didn't make any difference at the last election and probably won't at the next, paints.

But a DD can be called from someone other than the PM surely? Otherwise, what is the point?.

ie: If someone in your family had been found 'not of sound mind' or similar, you could apply for Power of Attorney to protect assets etc, on behalf of said peerson, why not something like that in govt.? A vote of no-confidence or something?

Like I say, political dummy here, but surely someone can step in and put things on hold until the governing morons get a grip on reality or better still, a replacement with a brain is nominated.
