byelections have a different character to full elections though, because they have a strictly local focus. so it's difficult to say whether this is a litmus test of the whole electorate or not. that being said labor is in big trouble

That hypothetical means nothing in our case. A republic interpretation of our current constitution would encounter serious difficulties as I have explained above. An American-esque Constitution would be more appropriate for an Australian republic in a perfect world, but we can't just change our...

Privy council decisions were the one exception because they formed part of the Australian court hierarchy. However, the sheer rarity of such decisions meant that they had very little practical effect. Again, the Australian government had the legislative powers to abolish privy council appeals...

She would have little to do with us even if she was Australian born. And wtf do you mean by 'technicalities'? Queen of Australia is a title with far more than technical significance because it emphasises the central political role of the Crown. How the fuck is it that I can put up a long and...

human nature is human nature and suggesting that it can be changed or controlled in pursuit of some subjective ideal is freakish leftist bullshit
