taguchi 0 Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 It seems many people don't like their politician in country. Does anyone actually generally like and approve of their government? Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Tony's great. He doing an astonishingly good job of being resolute, and I'm sure everybody wishes him well. That Galloway fellow now, he's a scallywag. Can't believe a word he says. Link to post Share on other sites

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 I was very proud that I had somebody as insightful, wise, trusting, giving, and honest as Newt Gingrich. I really hope he is doing well. Link to post Share on other sites
js 0 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Don't know what all the Yanks and Poms are complaining about - your pollies shine like beacons of hope and intelligence compared to Aussie pollies. The rhetoric, party politicing, contempt and unintelligible crap shites me beyond reasoning. They still treat their constituents, who generally are more educated and experienced, like morons Link to post Share on other sites
Oyuki kigan 0 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Well, Canada just passed legislation for same-sex marriages. Usually, i'm pretty cynical about my government (and any other, for that matter), but i am pretty stoked on that piece of news Link to post Share on other sites

taguchi 0 Posted July 30, 2005 Author Share Posted July 30, 2005 Is it true that before Blair was elected, he was very popular and the Labour Party was like fashionable to like for "working class" people. It seems that change now - why? Is it because before election some people good idea but when elected they realise the limits they work with in government and cannot do many thing they wanting to do.
