Hello folks,
In the Australian state of Victoria we have two elections to participate in this year: federal and state. Neither election has been called yet and both are due to occur this year and both have an incumbant Labor government. With the as yet un-elected Brumby state government plagued with issues, such as: MyKI (mine still doesn't work and the ticketting system is still holding my $50) the appaulingly delivered transport ticketting system; the water de-salination plant , and; various potential corruption issues such as building and development dumb-ass Justine Maddon, it's a surprise the opossition Liberals can't wage a decent shredding of the Labor government.
At the Federal level it's more of the same except with deaths thrown in: the appaulingly delivered home insulation scheme (four deaths and 93 house fires); an environmental push to curb contributions to Climate Change by man-kind that defied any criticism of it's factual basis, and an ETS scheme that was so ill-concieved that even the Labor party itself had to dump it; questionable policy decisions such as the mining Tax, and; so many Number One Priorities, that it has become a national joke.
Compared to Rudd, Brumby is good government. But really, we should have a better choice on our ballot papers than currently exists.
