Election Day in Australia

[Sam Slater]

'Labor' is the original Latin for 'toil' no? Still a bastardisation though !wink!

'Labour, favour and neighbour' are much more refined.

I am amazed at how our voters have overwhelmingly supported the incomming Prime Minister - Kevin Rudd because many people find him slimey like a bad used car salesman. But often elections are about choosing the least worst candidate. Its like - "What will it be then sir, your hands chopped off or your eyes poked out?"

That'll certainly be what the next election is like in the UK, Deano.

And to think that without the French, they'd never have won independence.
