This headline could have been streamlined:
"Oz politicians SUCK."
Actually, even that looks to have one too many words:
"Politicians SUCK."

To the story - we are getting this. It will pass nearly unopposed and almost completely un-amended. Consultation will be minimal and those demanding - begging - to see the draft so they can have an input will be left to say: "told you so".
Some days I feel that my heart is just broken. Melodramatic perhaps, but that's how it feels to watch the country I love throw away it's identity and the freedom of its people in order to to watch it tag along with the US, trying so very hard to emulate and impress it and so readily agreeing with it. You were great in the game last night; can we carry your books?
