We Judge.
Ha! So Billy Boy’s going to go it alone and force the minority neoLibNat government into acting in the best interests of the People of Australia. Fat chance, I say.
Now why not ask the People of Australia – via some sort of online plebicite … I’ll set it up, easy – whether we want one. We need one for sure. Judging by the rubbish, misinformation and obfuscation we get from these fools who believe they’re ruling – ruining – the country, we should have had one years ago. In fact there should never be a time when one isn’t in place.
So, first, lets get all the publically paid representatives to sign the Fitzgerald Principles. Should take all of a few minutes, we just need to print a single copy off and send it around while they’re sitting down, for the first attempt at a debate, of the new term – no excuses. There are only seven principles and even Christian the Clown couldn’t laugh them off. I’m happy to volunteer to take it around and that way it won’t cost the country a cent! Not one single cent. Hell, we could televise it! I’ll drive down there for free, and deliver it to all the news outlets within 5 minutes of the signing. It’ll be posted around the country 5 minutes later.
Now, we shouldn’t really need to waste parliaments time, and our money, fighting over whether an Anti-Corruption Integrity commission is needed (because, boy, the neoLibs are going to fight against it!) – we will have one. We’ll post the signed copy up in every Pub, Bingo Hall and Laundromat in the country too. There’s out Commision.
Of course we’d have to be prepared to lose most of these publically paid representatives before the end of the first day – we can give them that chance. They can walk out and disappear, no questions asked, no pensions. I’d expect a very very quiet day.
But the next day we’ve got em!
