>ah... just what the existing 22 always wanted.
It's not that we don't have any nice people in parliament. There used to be Scott Ludlam. There's Linda Burney and Penny Wong. I mean like-Jacinda-nice.
For the next little while our parliament will be fascinating. We enjoy humiliating women, and enduring that and functioning with a hung parliament was Julia Gillard's great achievement. Really rough but not too bad types (Lindsay Fox) came out and said, 'I don't think it does anyone any good to say that the PM should be put in a weighted bag and thrown into the sea. I don't care who said it.'
Perhaps Tony Abbott will be turfed to of Warringah? That's where Jane Caro is standing perhaps. That would be nice.
