    I dunno. Spent a bit of time down there a bit ago. All the mates I met then absolutely hated (in their words) the bitch PM y’all had then: Julia Gillard. I heard so much shite about her when I was there that I looked her up. Y’all got no room at all to talk.

    Keating was our Trump. Crass, uncompromising, combative and plain speaking - with an actual vision for the country (like it or hate it).

    He also won an 'unwinnable election' amidst a polarized electorate.

    No denying her.... she lied and broke promises and was dumped by her party.

    At least our political parties have the guts to get rid of shithouse leaders...

    Ah, that really makes me homesick. The true outback!

    Here's a couple from our property.

    ...


    We have an old shack and are building another house, but I won't post pics for fear giving away my identity. They'd disbar me for sure

    But your parties can change the PM because you have a parliamentary system. Parties have no ability to remove a President in our system except by impeachment for serious crimes or if he's incapacitated.
    I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.
