You know, I remember a time when parliament was a place for debating legislation based on policies.
Still, it's a nice way for our pollies to finish up before their 6 week break
...and people wonder why I'm anti-partisan.
ZOMG! "UTEGATE"!

I would never advocate lying from a politician, but honestly - we've had far worse situations than this, and nobody has made a peep.
But all of a sudden, now our parliament can't pass any laws until they're done screaming at each other to resign.

Must of been the same people who gave Howard evidence on Iraq...But Mr Turnbull defended his actions saying the opposition had acted "reasonably and responsibly" by basing its accusations on evidence a Treasury official - Godwin Grech - gave to a Senate inquiry on Friday.

Zzzzzzzzz.
But hey, never mind, holidays soon. That's the period of time when politicians aren't meant to consider and pass legislation.
As opposed to the time when they are, but don't.

I'm sick of the media appending "-gate" to political scandals...
that scandal wasn't even in this country....
