It is nothing more than a political football. Even if it makes it through the vote on May 19, there will be an election one way or another before it makes its way though the senate. This is going to die on the order paper as sure as I'm writing this comment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11333084.post-1116355106862507522005-05-17T16:08:00.000-02:302005-05-17T16:08:00.000-02:30It looks like the Liberals will get a chance to go...It looks like the Liberals will get a chance to gorge themselves at the public trough for a while longer.<BR/><BR/>So much for the wheels of democracy.

That would mean the speaker would need to break a tie and would most likely vote in favour of the reigning government.<BR/><BR/>Question: Are Belinda and Peter still an item? If they are, does that mean that we might see him move to the Liberal side as well, (pillow talk can have funny results sometimes.)<BR/><BR/>All very interesting stuff. It should be fun seeing how this fleshes out.Patriothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17364831921954903098noreply@blogger.com
