New Australian Government

Just a bit of late news but one worth posting for historical reasons. The citizens of Australia have voted and we now have a new Labor government and Prime Minister Kevin Rudd.
The previous Liberal Government lasted for 11 years and the Prime Minister John Howard for 11 years too! As a record he will be the second Australian Prime Minister to lose his own seat resulting from the election.
Petrol pricing is a joke.

See what I mean! Experts that don’t see the obvious. Even the ‘Peak automotive body’ appears to support high prices. Shame on you. Sack your stupid expert advisers and employ house wives and husbands etc…
There aren’t any complex issues to consider no matter how experts try to justify their employment.
If taxes supposedly increase the price of petrol how come in QLD that does not have the state fuel tax is just as expensive as the other states. All these experts sound pretty un-expert to me. We don’t need to be told we’re not being ripped of regardless of tax or not.
The inquiry to me sounds like a waste of time. Especially when they are saying ‘oh because petrol on Tuesday is cheaper everthing’s fair’. What a absolute joke.
We are not stupid!
Oh my gosh!

A lot of news happened today but the highlight was a the APEC summit held in Sydney Australia!
The best moment was when Kevin Rudd – leader of the opposition spoke in fluent mandarin welcoming the leaders of China. S*** Even funnier was his quip about Pandas to offset the current PM Howard’s Panda jibe. Even better was the mention about the foreign minister’s badly received joke about Pandas. It’s Panda-monium! (Been wanting to say that for ages!)
The second best moment was when the Chaser team, a political satire ‘comedy’ show ‘breached’ the security in Sydney today. Funny only because the level of security is described as the best we’ve got.
