Dare I say it? Dare I shout it? Dare I? Yes, I dare!
ALP (Australian Labor Party) were completely and utterly wiped out in the March 24th Queensland state elections!!!!!
Bligh was shown for the lying phony she is.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
The LNP (Liberal National Party) wiped the floor with their lies, corruption, deceit and complete lack of skilful economic management.
Oh, how sweet it is!
For nearly 20 years Queensland has had to put up with the Labor bullshit, but now we are free of the bunch of foul toadies for another 20 years.
Queensland can now begin to rebuild.
"The future looks so bright I gotta wear shades."
Now for the Federal Labor/ Greens/ Independents cesspool of a "government".
Gillard has lied and cheated her way into the top job, but her day of reckoning is coming up fast. She and her cohorts will be wiped out just as Bligh and her scabs were wiped out. Australia will be freed of her Carbon Tax On Everything. Australia will be freed of the insanity, lies, corruption and double dealing of Gillard. For you who are not aware of the depths this "government" will do to cling to power, I say the name Craig Thompson. Do a Google, read up on this sorry union clown and the misuse of union funds. He is being protected by the ALP from justice because they know if he goes...they may go! Corrupt to the core! Lies, it's in the ALP's DNA.
Bring on the Federal Elections....free us from this ALP slime!

I know almost nothing about Aussie politics.

However, I'd definitely like to see Julian Assange's campaign for the Aussie Senate succeed:

The OP is self deluded if he/she thinks the Liberals will deliver a better Australia to the people.
Here in NZ, the similarly aligned National Party Government have created a society where Unions cannot protect workers rights and wages in line with inflation let alone making any improvement in standard of living due to company imposed lock outs at Mafia owned Talleys (owners of Affco meatplants) and Ports of Auckland and Oceania rest Homes. The rich are creaming it here while everyone else struggles to pay the bills. It's called the unregulated neo-liberal agenda and if you think they will create a 'fairer Australia' you really are in for a rude shock.

Queensland - an Australian state with an electoral system that makes China look like a model for democracy.

I know the average Queenslander is a good person, but you do have to wonder if they have any clue at all about politics. This is the state that had a Belke-Peterson government for 20 years before going down the Labour road for nearly another two decades.

It is also the state that gave rise to Pauline Hansen and the One Nation party - a party that appealed to any XXXX guzzling racist.

Queenslanders deserve a good government; I just hope they get it right this time.

Thank goodness it is all over.... til the next election.candyraver dancemj
Damn!!! that's at the end of April when we have the Brisbane Council Elections. th_bi  Then we will have the Federal Elections before we know it. th_l th_l

To be perfectly honest, I have no idea of the name of the guy I voted for; I just voted for the party. To be perfectly honest again, I'm losing my patience with a lot of things happening and things which have happened in the Country generations of my family have fought for. th_l   When it comes down to the wire, I'm with Noel on this one. th_bf
