I'm fed up. I look at Aus politics and see the same shit repackaged (but for maybe Nick Xenaphon, he seems fairly principled), I don't agree with him on many issues, but he's now the only politician who doesn't cause me to change the channel when he pops up on the television. They all seem as craven, corrupt, greedy and unprincipled as each other.
I'll keep voting for 3rd parties and independents, purely because I want the two party system (not to mention the two parties) done away with, until my dream party comes along, a moderate libertarian party which is also committed to fielding candidates for ministerial positions who actually know what they are doing and have experience in that field. I want my health minister to at least have seen the inside of a hospital, and my education minister to have been involved in education. Peter Garret from the midnight oils? So he knows his Music, the music industry presumably and law, make him minister for arts (which he was before) then, why is this chap our minister for education?
That they can have major reshuffles scares me.
