Australia *has* a ginga PM
Aussie PM Kevin Rudd has called for a leadership ballot tomorrow. Deputy leader Julia Gillard may be Australia's first female PM.

I don't really follow Australian politics that much, though I heard on the radio her described as like a 'young Helen Clark'. Which if true could be a good or a bad thing depending on who you're asking.

NZ Herald now reporting that Rudd has stepped down.
I have to say, as far as leadership coups go, this seems to have been flawlessly executed. |

Must be more wary of Hughes & Norman. Could be the start of a sinister ginga invasion.

Nicely done by Gillard. I've always liked her. But unless she ditches the Labor Party's insane Internet policies I'm going to stay in a position of FUCK YOU.

lol, GINGZ!!!
Isn't it peculiar how both NZ and Aus got their first female prime minister by way of a coup... Moral of story? Don't trust a womins. They'll kick yo ass out on the street and take everything you've got.

It's the only way it could ever happen in Australia.
In the good news category for the morning, however, is the fact that Australia's next Prime Minister appears to be a godless atheist. Praise the lord. |

How so?
Being a lefty does not mean that you also MUST be an anti religion, turtle neck wearing, theatre going 'intelectual' as well. I'm pretty sure that the only religion that pretty much means you're 100% going to be right wing is Catholic. These new age "christians" are as fruity as JP. Just look at lightspeed, total fucking lefty care bear tool who thinks he's an intellectual, and yet claims to be 'christian'. |

I think that you can be a 'christian' without being a 'Bible basher'. A bible basher is fundamental about the bible. This necessitates being against gays, other religion, abortion, non-nuclear family types, sex, drugs etc. All these things are conservative rather than left wing.

Holy fuck, woke up to find that the mining industry has just overthrown Australia and installed a ginger puppet as the new dear leader.

Julia Gillard just got sworn in as Prime Minister by the Governor-General.
Gillard read a secular affirmation. She did not hold a Bible, Koran, or copy of Dianetics. Fuck yeah. |

I'd be just as disturbed by her holding a Bill Maher dvd.

But does she support an 18+ rating for games?

I notice that the Australian Christian Lobby is deathly silent over the fact that the leader of the country declined to be sworn in with a Bible.

Yes baited. But I mean, jesus. Also the point is much better explained by the distinction between parties and ideologies. Almost all 'intellectuals' I believe you are referring to, would vote Democrat in America. Yet the Democratic part is to the right policy wise of many ideals of 'conservative' parties in NZ and Aus. The term Nanny State is retarded, but just those two words would be a better explanation than yours mate. There's nothing uniquely Christian about knee jerk reactions about issues people do not understand. |

I don't want to call her a homophobic biatch, but I don't see how an "unregistered cohabitation" is equal to a registered civil union (gay marriage).

Feels weird to admit to myself that after a few beers I'd possibly tap the Prime Minister.

Jeez you buggers are easily taken in by a bit of make up and a bit of sympathetic lighting.
