    True, Rampage.

    Yes, I would like to see how my MP votes too but, sadly, there is nothing we can do it if we don't like it except wait for three years to have a say.

    And, don't forget that labor seems to have a policy that their members HAVE to vote as required by their leader. As such, the ALP itself seems to be undemocratic by not allowing MPs to properly represent their electorates. This is what gives Gillard such dictatorial power - and she also has a friendly senate which makes it worse for the majority, imo.

    I do think there needs to be more power in the people's hands for serious issues in between elections.
