Election Day

[den]

Oh yeah. Yesterday was election day. The conservative Liberal Party have been voted out, and the liberal Labor Party have been voted in. If the 150 seat in the House Of Representetives, Labor got 86, gaining 33 seats over the last election. Quite a few seats will come down to postal votes so we don't have the final tally yet.

I am rather pleased about this result.

I'm very pleased that Australia woke up to the damage Howard has done to Australia both internally, and on the international stage. I hope that Labour reverses the so-called Labour reforms.

I doubt they'd reverse all of them, but they'd certainly attempt to reform them

The real beauty of yesterday was, John howard doesn't even get to be opposition leader, As he got voted out of his safe seat of 30something years.

yep, they kicked him out for a labor minister
