Jeez anyone with half a cat's brain could have seen it coming.

And you've still got to indulge yourself in post-mortem who-flung-dunging

Get with the program!I Ifyou're an Aussie-true-blue, support your elected-by-the-people-of-Austalia Prime Minister!

If not, you'll get your chance to voice your discontent in the next election.

In the meantime, hold your peace!

Icy,I  don't quite see what your problem is,  As you say, there was an election, the Liberal party won, Mr Abbott is our new Prime Minister, everybody knows that.-  what else do you want them to get"?

Sure looks like a slidey slop to me Polks

It's Labor's own fault they lost. Little party unity or cohesion and lots of internal sabotabge for personal gain. Thoroughly reprehensible and they deserved to lose.

The LNP didn't gain outright control of the Senate and it will be interesting to see how the allegiances fall out come next July.

Anyway, I think we all have to reserve judgement until (what is it, October?) when Mr Abbott's parliament commences (or whatever the term is) and we see just what he is going to actually do.
