AUSTRALIANS - STOP MOANING

Rudd

Gillard

Abbott

We're a long way from being Aussies yet but here's how I understand this:

º  In 2007 Australians voted in the Labor Party (ALP) into government in an ALP led coalition 

   

º  Kevin Rudd led the country as Prime Minister until 2010 at which time his popularity with Australians and within the ALP had waned considerably

º  Julia Gillard challenged Rudd for the party leadership in 2010 which she won unopposed and duly became Australia's first female Prime Minister

º  Gillard announced a date for the next general election which happened just months after her appointment. The vote resulted in a hung parliament and Gillard was ultimately supported by 4 of the 6 crossbench MP's maintaining Labor in power in a minority government

º  Gillard's popularity waned within the country and Rudd saw fit to challenge for party leadership in 2012 which he lost 71 - 31 votes, thus Gillard remained PM

º  In March 2013 another ALP leadership spill was announced with Rudd nominated to oppose Gillard. At the last minute, Rudd withdrew and Gillard maintained the leadership

º  Uncertainty remained within the ALP and in June 2013 Rudd challenged Gillard again and retook the leadership role becoming PM once again

º  A general (federal) election was held yesterday (7th September 2013) with the Liberal Party led national coalition headed by Tony Abbott defeating Rudd and Labor by 89 - 57 seats with Abbott set to be the new PM

º  Aussies are already moaning like hell about Abbott....

What the fuck do you actually want, Australia? Do you know?

At least you seem to have the power to change things whereas here in South Africa we don't.

STOP FUCKING WHINGEING!
