i have watched politician Question time quite a few times and am confused in thinking these idiots are supposed to be running this country.
all ive seen since mr Rudd come into government is both parties winging and bitching about each other.

mr Rudd has donre more for the battelers in his short time in goverment than all the others of the oposition has ever done in the bloody 10 years plus.

how much are these politicians paid an hour?
i think the Australian public should be able to see this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
after all its the bloody taxpayer thats paying their wages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

im also sick of seeing and hearing “order” “order” “ORDER” “ORDER” THESE GOOSES ARE WASTING TIME, I RECON 3 STRIKES (orders) and ur out for the day with no pay!!!!!
do it again that month and 1 week without pay!!!!

i thought they were supposed to be getting things done and organized for us the people of Australia. not bullshitting and acting like a cage full of friggen monkeys…………….

get ur shit together and friggen start looking after Australia not winging and bitching and friggen wasting money on crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…..

Actually, I thought there was a really funny incident just after Scott Ludlam asked his questions in the Senate. I kept the stream open for something to listen to and listened as the minister for industry was asked if he thought that expert analysts were talking bull when they said Australian industry was going to continue its decline. Funniest ten minutes of incoherent yammering I have heard in my life

I couldn't resist repackaging this story one more time. See The Rudd Government: One-Term Only?

Correct me if I am wrong. But Conroy actually didn’t win his seat did he?

I dunno Icaria… I’ve seen my fair share of Parliament Question Time, and I’d have to say that that was one of the worst performances on behalf of a senator that I have ever seen. If he made any attempt whatsoever to respond to any one of the questions directed against him, then I can’t remember it. All he did was read notes off his laptop which had very little if anything to do with what was being asked. I know he doesn’t have much to work with in defending such a stupid policy, but that performance was just pathetic.

I’m a little surprised by the …surprise expressed in some of the preceding comments.

Have people never watched Question Time before? Some of you seem to be under the mistaken impression that sessions of parliament are somehow productive or useful.
