Pretty sure the most recent western election was a socialist party.

No they don't because it is a fiction that never actually happened. The legislative achievements of the Rudd governments first two years were more substantial than that of any government since Whitlam, utterly dwarfing those of the Howard government and this was despite battling the most...

It's not about "justice'' it's about not being scene as some puppet for the trade union movement. People who think Labor's problems are about the carbon tax and BER are ignoring that Labor hasn't won more than 40% of the primary vote since 1993 except under Rudd. When Labor won the 2007 election...

They do now. Apparently he travelled quite well in Penrith but Blacktown, Liverpool, Fairfield, Parramatta(the city not the whole electorate) Bankstown etc were all strongly Labor for the duration of Howard's tenure.

In 300 words explain what your point is.

Pure Blood is a Harry Potter term.

You're a wizard?

Aren't you asian? You realize the Liberal party hates you right?

I'm more inclined to say the conduct of every Australian government until Holt was disgusting with regard to immigration and race. But I'd say that Whitlam went some way to dismantling the last vestiges of it. Julia Gillard and John Howard have since seen fit to reintroduce elements of it of course.
