Ah. No more Huang parliament.

Very disappointed in this whole government issue.

Firstly, I thought from the beginning that a re-vote would've been the best option for a number of reasons. One, I don't think it's right that a few people, with their own biases and pre-formulated opinions, should be able to choose our government for us. The second reason is that nothing is going to get done this way anyway, and, as Zara said, the government will probably be dissolved or something in a year.

Secondly, I don't like Gillard. As in, I dislike her more than I dislike Abbott. They both suck, but he sucks less.

A little bit off topic, but I think Gillard sucks in another respect apart from her lack of policies or any real statements. Actually, Labor in general sucks for the reason I'm about to put out.

She (or they, depending on your point of view), had a bajillion seats more then the Liberals after the last election. They went from that, and having the most popular Prime Minister since Australia has been populated, to having to make deals with cowboys from Queensland and other such 'colourful' politicians in order to form a government which will be the most indecisive thing since girls started shopping for dresses. Not that I liked Kevin Rudd anyway. Not one bit. But I just found it surprising that they would be fool enough to replace somebody so popular.

That's all from me today. Not much else to talk about from memory. Or nothing relevant/important.

A Huang parliament. Boom boom.

So, I decided to vote Liberal yesterday, and tried to ignore the fact that I was indirectly voting for Tony Abbot. I kept telling myself that I was voting for the party, not the leader.

And look what's happened. A hung parliament. And it's my first time voting as well. Should be exciting times ahead. Hope Labor loses.

In other news, Arsenal defeated the mighty, mighty free-scoring Blackpool 6-0. They, who scored four against Wigan away from home last week, could not resist the might of a half-strength Arsenal. Forza Arsenal!
