If you ask me

The mainstream political parties are bankrupt of talent and ideals and it is time for a political revolution.

Ifyouaskme, it is well and truly time for a political revolution. Another election is upon us and the major parties are trotting out all of their usual lies and soon-to-be-broken promises in order to con you into voting for them. The Liberals, Labor and the Greens will say anything that they think will gain them votes, make any promise, distort any fact and invent quite a few along the way, too.

However, the moment they gain power they will immediately forget about those promises, they will completely ignore the electorate and they will embark upon whatever policies they think will suit their own agendas. We have seen this time and time again and, whenever one of our elected ‘representatives’ actually changes the decisions of the party room, perhaps because he/she realises that it is against the wishes of the electorate, the party punishes them and forces them to ‘toe the line’. All the while, the people are ignored.

If the major parties were doing the job properly, if they were actually serving the country and the people, would we have so many problems and so many issues that just seem to get worse and worse and which drag on for years and years? We need a new breed of politician, we need an end to the ‘professional’ politicians who just sponge off of the public purse and who provide little, if any, value for money. We need an end to the attitude of politicians, who seem to be moulded in the likes of John Howard who excused his breaking of election promises by categorizing promises as ‘core promises’ and ‘non-core promises’ – what a dishonest and deceitful attitude that was and that attitude still exists within all of the major parties.

We are presently witnessing political revolutions around the world. Whether you like him or not, Donald Trump is shaking up American politics because he is NOT afraid to speak out and he says things that the ‘professional’ politicians, who have all been brainwashed by political correctness, are terrified to say. The British people have opted for Brexit and have told the world that they have had enough of useless politicians, that they want to be responsible for their own future and that they no longer wished to be dictated to by Brussels. Following that, there are similar movements now springing up on Germany, Holland, France, Hungary and Denmark, and I dare say that the tread will continue.

Around the world, people are saying that they have had enough of worthless governments, professional politicians and the general dunderheads that seem to squeeze into public offices.

it is now time for Australia to say the same thing – enough is enough, take a hike you Liberal, Labor and Greens politicians; you have had decades to get the job right and you have failed to do so. Take your self-centred policies, your hidden agendas and bugger off!
