[QUOTE="Australian, post: 765471, member: 8793"] The Australian people don't get a say on who is the Prime Minister. They get to vote for which party they want in power.This dismissal was by his own Labor party. The new PM was his deputy. The labor party is a very union orientated party. Labor party members are back stabbers as can be seen by yesterdays events. A lot of Australians are disgusted by the events of yesterday, when the former PM had only a few months to go of his 3 year term. Most rural voters in Australia support either the Liberal or the National Parties. There are increasing numbers that vote for The Greens ( environmental type affiliation) and Independents ( who supposedly have no allegiance to any party). The Greens often tend to side with the Labor party and often Independents are people that are disillusioned members of the larger labor,National or Liberal parties. The Labor party was set up to supposedly support the rights of workers etc. Now they tend to support the non workers and freely give handouts as they get a lot of support from those in our community that choose not to work much. Under our previous government Australia was a much wealthier country than what we are now, the government were good budgeters, but in the lead up to the last election the former government chose to suggest that they were to bring in new workplace laws ( that seem to scare those non workers and their supporters.) The present government have instigated a number of initiatives that have failed and this is what has seen such a large fall in Labor popularity. They brought in a home insulation scheme whereby householders were given a rebate to have their homes insulated so to say power consumption for heating and cooling.
