Just so its clear, the purpose of this thread was to joke a little bit of australian humour, and find out (apart from who has it in their location[never seen half of you before!]) who lives in australia.

If you want to argue about Australia further, please, mods, move this to the backroom.

Yes Queensland is a bit corrupt, the federal government is better, but we dont have a great choice here. The Queensland Liberal Party can not do anything, theyve spent nearly 10 yrs(unsure) trying to get the coaltion working. So we are forced to vote for ALP.

Likewise in Federal. ALP for Federal cannot do anything right, so we are forced to vote Howard back.

To quote (yet again) The Chasers
And we also thank John Howard, in this week of his tenth year in power, for keeping this man out of officeFull screen picture of Peter Costello
I am a Queenslander, I however, do see that change is needed, but growing up in QLD, I have also the slight fear of change, or for lack of better words no reason to embrace it. I understand why other states think queenslanders are rednecks, the fact is, most of us are.

Toowoomba recyling water poll. Yes or No. Better to have named it

(yes)Drink water thats perfectly safe, but new in the world (machinery made etc) and you have an inbuilt distrust of, or
(no) Continue drinking pure water and die.

That is the fact, Australia will get less rain, and unless we recyle water, and desalination plants are put up (more than one on the gold coast) we will not be able to support ourselves. And then we might have to move to NT.

No one wants to do that
