The greens were put in a position of power by 'US' the australian people so they are representive maybe not of all of us but enough of us did vote for them that means we elected a government that would have to negotiate to get legislation through the parliment that is not bowing to the demands it is negotiation which we could do with a lot more of in my opinion.

We currently have what’s called a minority government where the government has cut deals to stay in power. They are bowing to the demands of independents Rob Oakshot MP, Andrew Wilke MP, Tony Windsor MP and lone Green, Adam Bant MP to maintain the balance of power in the House of Representatives.

I'd like to see some real vision on reducing mans impact on the planet, like announcing a huge solar power plant in the outback. Just for example. Introducing yet another new tax isn't the answer for all our problems. Surely

I don’t sleep well with knowledge that we are dictated and lied to....we aren’t sheep and should demand better.
