what will the weekend surprise be from labor, page-15

This was talked about a bit on radio(and i think also on tv) yesterday. The speaker of the house has the right to hold off by-elections after the date has been announced. Example given was i think the 1993 election where a by-election was held off for 4 months in the lead up to the federal election.

Can't verify, just what i picked up listenening to the tv and radio
