    OK, you are entitled to your view, but once voiced on HC I have the right to question it. If you resent being questioned, don't publish.

    I cannot see how a House of Review which is dominated by the party with the majority in the House of Representatives can function as a House of Review.

    I don't see the benefit a popularly elected government being frozen for three years, not being able to enact the legislation it had a clear mandate to enact.

    So what purpose does the House serve, should we abolish it [instead of reorganising the Senate] as ineffectual, and turn over government to Palmer and assorted crazies who couldn't agree on a dog registration policy?
