You are obv from overseas, this government and PM esp DON'T listen to anyone.

750,000 of our 3.5 m (at time) population forwarded a petition calling for tougher sentences for crims, she (PM) accepted it and then said WE DON'T have do anything YOU say.

I'm sorry, but what makes you so different ?   Back in dear old blighty we've had a petition against road pricing signed by 1.7million +, and our b***d politicians, including our "beloved" PM, won't listen, either.  :'( :'( They want snooping technology in every new car - they'll tax us if we break wind soon, as it's bound to contribute to global warming   ::)

We used to say our previous govt. was sleazy, but our current lot outdoes them all in spades in every area  >:(

Rant over - back to a semblence of normality  :)

and the real strange thing is,  they are both LABOUR governments.


Doesn't really bode well for either country, when the 'peoples party', starts acting like something out of an Orwell novel.


oh well, at least Summers finally arrived down under !
