careful there fella... the Liberals here are nominally the Conservatives.

Left - Right / Liberal - Conservative , what ever you want to call it. Neither side really has any skin in the game so neither side experiences the downsides of their actions/policies. But they experience ALL the upside.

Actually, you are wrong there AiA...our Labor Party which is the government in power have a reputation for corruption, insider-trading... fraud, and wiring funds/assets back to themselves through third parties.

Eddie Obeid and Craig Thompson and Julia Gillard (our former PM) are but a few examples..then there’s Kevin Rudd and Therese Rein and their company Ingeus Ltd.

An easy way to remember......


Australia’s Liberals are like America's Republicans.

However...

Americas Liberals are Australia’s Labor party.

In Australia, Liberals are the conservative party aka republicans... in America, Liberals are the Left aka democraps.

:thumb Remember....left foot right when doing the conversion.

The Royal family seem to always conscript the males in their family, and not some menial position in the back office or a sheltered bunker.
Yet to hear of any of the females in the Royal family serving their country in that regard.
What was that about equal opportunity for next in line to the throne again.
