The year my vote broke..

The story so far...

After 10 years of Liberal government in Australia the idealistic youth are looking for someone who might actually succeed in winning power at the next election and reversing at least some of the backwards steps we've taken in these past years. We see the imposing figure cut by Monsieur Kim of the ALP, we listen to the objections and interjections they level at the Liberals and we think... perhaps this just might work.


Little did we know that back in Canberra..

In todays SMH in an article about policy change and uranium a caucus spokeswoman said: "We can have a debate without a split" a wonderfully salient point that emphasises the importance of dissent and debate within a robust democracy or political party . She continues: "we can have an argument without damaging the Labor brand" Aaaargh! So close and then talking about branding? Please god no! Perhaps soon the ALP will cotton onto the hipness of viral marketing, now there's a campaign to ponder.
