Aust. Election in 1 week - A review of Kevin Rudd, PM

by fulltimestudent in

i'm still determined not to vote - just to write something unpleasant about pollies on the ballot paper.

if i lived in victoria, i just may, as an act of sheer bastardry, vote for julian assange (of wikileaks fame), but i don't live in vic, so i cant.. my objection to voting is that the political choice offers two self-perpetuating oligarchies (who are something like the governing body).

they make up a slate of candidates and election advertising consists of attempting to persuade swinging voters to vote for their slate of candidates.. anyway, i noted that k.rudd has made a video in chinese, aimed apparently at mainland china.

Don't keep fighting about silly things just go to the polling booth tomorrow and vote for the conservatives and don't forget to vote for the conservatives in the half Senate election. Tony Abbott will make a good prime minister and besides he also a royalist. Barry

"Worlds Apart" A danish movie about a young coming of age Jehovahs Witness , screening on SBS2 tonight in Victoria

friends

i know their have been screenings of this movie before , but this notice is for any newbies here that may not have seen it previously.

it is scheduled to screen at 10:25 pm on ch.32 sbs2 sun.25/8/13 .

maybe other states in australia can view it on-line , or request it be shown by sbs in their state.. it is an interesting movie , and apart from minor flaws , pretty accurate despite the beard,though i am told the danes are a bit more liberal than the west.. the real / actual jehovahs witness this story is based on has a cameo appearance near the end of this movie in the train sequence.. please let me know if you watch it and your thoughts about it .. smiddy.
