    Aussies elect new PM

    Curious as to why replace a party that has:

    Sustained an economic boom & enforced a robust immigration policy?
    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

    Fatigue. His party should have arranged a hand-over to a new leader, that way they could have stayed in power for years longer.

    .....Oh no, what am I saying

      Just had a look at the Australian Labour Party Site and saw this :

      Kevin Rudd's Plan for Australia's Future
      1. An education revolution (Education, Education, Education)
      2. Decisive action on climate change (Bye bye 4 x 4's)
      3. Balance and fairness in the workplace (Uh oh.....PC here we come)
      4. Maintaining our national security (ID cards anybody?)
      5. A strong economy delivering for working families (Fund the Chavs with higher Middle Class Tax)
      6. A national plan to fix our hospitals (More money for the likes of EDS then)


      Now, where does that sound familiar ?

      Looks like the Aussies are about to go through the same death sentence the UK went through starting from 1997.....
      Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

        Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers [Homer Simpson].

        RIP Australia; after a few years of Oz NuLiebour in power (PC and all that crap) GB may have a chance of beating them at rugby league .

          yup...it sounds awfully familiar

          "I say to all of those who have voted for us today - I will be a prime minister for all Australians; a prime minister for Indigenous Australians; Australians who have been born here and Australians who have come here from afar and contributed to this country's great diversity

            The answer is IRAQ

            What a nice surprise, Howard is down, Australian conservatives in ashes !
            Australian Labour with Rudd won the election in a landslide victory.

            Rudd already announced, he will fully withdraw Australian troops from Iraq

            And CNN ouch ! And when I think that those fools of CNN brought couple of days ago an expert - to tell us that Howard might win and that of course Iraq has no influence on the election.

            In other words before that criminal dumbo came to power nobody had any enmity towards the Australians not the case anymore.

              Good Riddance! Howard was a small minded populist fool! The economy has been going "gang-busters" mainly because of the mining boom and reforms made by the previous Labor government!

              It remains to be seen whether Rudd will be any better. But anybody is better than Howard!

              btw, it is under Howard's stewardship that Australia has seen record immigration levels - not often metioned amonst all the refugee bashing done over there!

                This is because Australia is like Scotland. All the indiginous aussies are lazy welfare junkies created by socialists thus creating a need to import hard working asians. Dont worry now that labor are back they will be able to create more welfare junkies and thus keep themselves in power for a long time to come.
