THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT FIT TO GOVERN- CALL AN ELECTION
Rise Up Australia Party President Daniel Nalliah today calls upon the Governor General to initiate a federal election because the Government is not fit to govern the country, regardless of who wins Monday’s leadership spill. If Kevin Rudd wins the ballot, it does not automatically make him Prime Minister. The Governor General has reserve powers to approve the appointment of the Prime Minister, and she needs to be certain that whoever is chosen by the ALP as their leader also holds the support of the House.
Julia Gillard says she will resign and throw open the position, but even if she wins a leadership ballot, it still leaves the ALP, already a minority government not able to govern in its own right, in total disarray and split down the middle. They cannot possibly work together with the level of hatred and character assassination being displayed in the public arena. How can the Governor General approve a Prime Minster heading a Party so completely dysfunctional and unable to govern? Robb Oakshott today said if there is a change in the ALP leadership, he will be calling the Coalition.
The Caucus is so divided that the Caucus Secretary, ALP MP Nick Champion, resigned today to send a message to his Parliamentary colleagues about his disapproval of the tactics which he says are “bringing the whole Party into disrepute”.
A brief look at the history shows that the hatred, lies and deception are systemic within the Labor Party and between Gillard and Rudd especially. When he was still PM and Ms Gillard was his deputy, she talked Mr Rudd into back-flipping on the Emissions Trading Scheme, which proved to be his downfall. Then she promised No Carbon Tax, and she brazenly broke her promise, giving the people a tax on CO2 (the air we breathe out) which she now she claims it was a great reform! What spin from an accomplished liar. A tax is not a reform. Big minerals rent tax, which threatens our mining industry, is another “great reform” forced on the people against their will which Gillard claims as evidence of her leadership skills.
