what a win! Of course this huge swing has Federal implications. and the Greens fell on their faces big time in this historic Liberal/NP NSW win. This Coalition win on the Primary vote alone was almost unbelievable.
BUT -
this does not negate the fact that, from July 1st 2011, the Greens will be ruling us Federally - they'll have the balance of power - and can dictate all the Federal Labor policy according to what they will and won't pass in the Senate.
Thanks for that, Ms. Gillard!
We don't want them - but. thanks to your formal signing ceremony, approved by Windsor and Oakeshott beaming in the background, we are stuck with the whole disatrous caboodle for the next two and a half years.
Gillard and Co. seemed to be trying to distance themselves from the Greens at the last minute last week - but thanks to her calculating "Marriage" to Bob Brown for her own self-preservation in a job she was not elected to, we are all still down the chute. And Bob Brown will be step-Prime Minister.
Parliament recalled today. Bet Gillard will be in loudest voice, screeching defiance and abusing Abbott as usual. And bet the only ones the Labor Speaker will throw out will be the Liberals!
Frantically working on all their Spins as I write - and the Dorothy Dixers, in order to keep the Coalition from getting a word in egdeways. Oakeshott DEMANDED Parliamentary reforms as part of his agreement - wonder what happened to HIS principles, as nothing's changed. In fact it's got much, much worse.
