The "secondly" panel is important, and I do wish more people would take that on board, even with FPTP. - Jimbob wrote:

We don't share a view on that then, as I consider the environment far more important than any economic matters, as with no environment, there is no economics. However, I am not voting Green, which I do most of the time, rather, I have to go with Labor as I despise Tonty Abbott and his Tory politics. He thinks it is more important to give rich woman highly paid maternity leave than it is to give poorer parents money to help out with school costs. That is only one of the many reasons I despise him, including giving us a much crappier version of fast internet and giving rich companies big tax breaks. But, to each his own, that is why we have a democracy. |

I'm another "environment first" voter. That tends to ally me with parties that use taxes to pay for environmental subsidies, i.e. lefty parties. But if we had the Australian system, I'd be all over the Green Party. It's not like they'll ever get elected to national government anyway. |

My sister would disagree, he had been working at the chip mill for like 30 odd years and that and because or state gov got into bed with them and saved more trees and some other crap they did all the mills got closed down. Although it is fun messing with the greenies as well |

I disagree, respectfully, but it iss the economy that put your dad out of work. The market has changed and competition from other countries made the market unviable. His job was only there for the last part because of tax breaks - subsidising the industry. The Greens are just an easy scapegoat, as they have been protesting for years and years, with only limited success. I do empathise with him losing a long held job, but it happens to many people in many industries. I hope he has managed to find some kind of employment. |

Nope- the rules were that it could happen when the serving government decided to call one, so long as it was no sooner than X amount of time after the last one and not too long after- in practive, every four years-ish. As of the next one, it's fixed at every five years. |
