our political chop suey, page-2

a politiacl chop suey served up by the 2 majors

a high in informals since '84 (5.6% or thereabout) and many labor voters handing over their protest votes to the greens

labor shot themselves in the foot so often, one could swear that they had a fetish for it, yet this country couldn't find it in themselves to get the coalition over the line - and that's considering no slip ups from abbott (and kudos to him to some degree)

we are now in the hands of independants who are no doubt going to be wheeling out their pet projects to justify their existence
