    Love the mining companies throwing money into the air in celebration of their deal with Gillard. These guys are on the ball.

    Very accurate summary of the situation, despite me being unable to understand anything that was said.

    The likeness of Abbott looks more like Vladimir Putin.

    Fantstic on so many levels.

    well i reckon the people of australia should have a re vote and allow some other people to run as candidates for the top job, we now have a goverment where no one is prime minister, so bring on another election date let it be soon , if the people of australia trusted either gillard or abbott their would of been a clear win for one of them so lets have another vote with the people of australia and let their be some others run for a posititon in goverment , if its up to the independants and a green to get either gillard or abbott as prime minister they will cruisfy the person who puts them into power nearly straight away , the same the did with rudd and turnbull , so i hope these independants and the green man have their prioyities right because they are now the ones who can ruien australia or make it better ,

    i say to the people of australia lets re vote and have other members of the australian public run for goverment as this might be our only cance to bring justice and stop the coruption in this contry neither of these leaders gillard or abbott , had ever mentioned one thing about the forgotten australians , the child migrants or the stolen generation , these are the very people the goverment apologised too yet never gave them one heart felt mention in their election , as if with were still non excistants in australia , and thats the way both goverments want the australian people , not knowing about us victims who were abused raped made slaves , tortured , soddimissed, starved , bashed, deprived , by the very goverments of australia we are real victims the goverment of each state and territory still continue to cover up about , we are real people whom still live with the suffering of what we endured as children in these state and territory institutions through out australia , orphanages, girls homes, boys homes, state ward homes, foster homes , out of home care, non state and territory church run homes ,neither of these goverments have not cared about us if they did they would mention us victims but no we are still no good for the parlaiment members of australia as they are a shamed of us victims thats why they won’t speak of us , how gutless are they no compassion at all towards us victims , still treating us all as their political pawns , and hoping no one will talk or mention anything about us , well ive got the guts to talk about us and always have done and ever politican is aware of us victims but don’t want to mention us , if this is the case why are they worth anything to be in parliament ,

    i hope their is another election made by the australian people and this time things might go right for australia , kind regards micheal brown , huffnpuff brown, mick brown , a real forgotten australian , by the australian goverment
