Technically they did in the vote to suspend when all the independent crossed the floor. The vote was the precursor to the no confidence vote. Katter abstained.

The independents made their point. This minority government has no support.

I think today just exemplifies why you don't vote Labor ...

Oakshott & Windsor are not going to contest their seats in the next election. The two of four that gave Gillard her Prime Ministerial position. Bob Brown has already left.

Whilst the minority power brokers are leaving Rudd, the man who wouldn't challenge, challenges again. Gillard's response is to challenge Rudd to retire if he loses as she will be doing. Fall on your sword?

Seriously Gillard, stand up and take your and let Rudd take the loss of his seat at the next election.

But you won't do that ... Like the independents you'll just leap from the ship full of holes. Holes which were created by the worms you let give you the captaincy of that ship.

Gutless!

The knifer has been knifed herself. About time. Still don't think Labor has a snowball's chance in hell on Sept 14... a few marginal seats might swing Labor's way but I still predict a landslide win for the Coalition.
