@Mick, a word goes deeper into a person of understanding than a 1000 blows into the back of a fool.
Some people don't understand that Julia lied, bribed and deceived her way into power.
Something that most Australians would be ashamed of but not die hard Labor goons. Whatever it takes was the motto just ask Andrew Wilkie.
In under 24 months, the mugs thugs and deperados will be gone unless Australia fails the I.Q. test at the next fed election.
As mfor me , I will not forget.

@Another Proud Aussie
It seems you can't find much to like about Australia although you proclaim yourself to be a proud Aussie. Maybe you should take a bex and have a good lie down and read a nice upbeat self help book to calm yourself down.

Everything this LIEbor Govt say are all lies & deceptive spin.
The unemployment figures are NOT 5.2% 2011 ABS figures but 10.3% with over 1,278,000 unemployed & rising according to Roy Morgan Research Jan 2012.
Is there NOTHING LIEbor will NOT LIE about?
Leadership?
There is NO leadership.
JuLIAR & Rudd are as bad as each other & we do NOT want either or their rotten LIEbor Party.
Broken promises, Australia Day Riot, Thomson cover up, Carbon Tax Scam, NO Border Security Scam, NBN Scam, BER Scam, Pink Batts Scam, Cattle Fiasco Scam & $Billion Dollar waste & debt.
Lie after lie, scam after scam by an untrustworthy arrogant LIEbor govt.
LIEbor Rudd followers should look at the disgraceful allegations reported & issued to every Senator last week regarding the Heiner Affair in the cover up by the Qld & Federal LIEbor Govts.
http://blogs.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/piersakerman/index.php/dailytelegraph/comments/senators_receive_heiner_allegations/
A rotten self serving LIEbor Govt that will do or say anything to cling to power.
Blaming Abbott for their reckless mismanagement is NO excuse & it is LIEbor who ARE negative & ARE deliberately destroying OUR nation!
The people are NOT duped & will vote them out at the first opportunity.
Had an absolute gutful.
ENOUGH!

The people do NOT want JuLIAR but we certainly do NOT want the $billion dollar man & do NOT support his quest to the UN as Ruler of the World.
The $Billions of taxpayers money Rudd is sending in Aid to impress the UN is disgusting.
The hundreds of millions of taxpayer funds Rudd is spending wining & dining UN & EU officials jet setting around the world 1st class for this delusional grandiose self serving dictator.
The people are NOT bloody conned by this pretender with the fake grin & the imbecile who calls us folks.
The same bloke who was the right hand man of Goss who was at the centre of the Heiner Affair, with the shredding of critical evidence in the rape of a child in State care & a political cover up, should have stopped him years ago.
The same pretender who tried to dupe the people with $900 cheques, $billions for BER, Pink Batts, Moral BS of the Century SCAM & SCAM Mining Tax.
The $230 Billion Dollars in debt we are in costing $100 million a day, which will take a decade or more to pay back.
Rudd was the instigator of the dismantling of our border security & instead of having 4 people remaining in detention we have had over 14,000 unidentified unauthorised illegal Middle Eastern Muslims arrive by boat & allowed entry to gain welfare, permanent residency, use our courts & bring thousands more with family reunion scams.
This is now costing $3Billion Dollars & they still will NOT stop the boats, reopen the Rudd/Gillard dismantled Nauru & issue only Temporary Protection Visas to stop the pull factors.
Neither Rudd or JuLIAR can be trusted just like the dire entire LIEbor Party!

mick, a couple of things, the only way any government was going to be formed as a result of the last election was through a coalition.
Our system whereby the members of parliament determine the government has been in place since 1901,
I think people like you, who want to change the way we have governed ourselves since the first parliament, should seriously consider moving to another country where they would be happier.
