The Australian Parliament has a tendency for no-holds-barred debate.

People who think the British Prime Minister's Question Time is the shit are missing out.

Yeah, everyone's seen this.

Oh wait, did I say everyone? I meant everyone EXCEPT THE WHOLE NATION OF AUSTRALIA who are busy being lame and not paying any attention.

Gah. This whole hung parliment has been permantly in chaos becasue Abbot's whoel strategy is to agressively bang his head on every wall imaginable to try to force a new election.

Slipper was a Liberal, now independednt, kicked out of the Libs for taking over the speaker role.
