And look what will happen. There's going to be a federal election in a
few months and the Liberal Party may be turfed out. Then again it may
not be. It depends on who get the greater number of seats. Given that
the Conservatives are rapidly approaching being disliked in their
powerbase its a tossup.

A parliament system is far more responsive to the public than the US
system. People belive that their participation is far more meaningful
and has much more impact when they are electing their local MP than
when they may be only a vote among millions, rather than among
hundreds or thousands.

Besides that scandal is old news. It broke over two years ago. There
has been a crown commission investigating it and it delivered its
report. If the same happened in the US with the Republicans, they
would have just changed the ethics rules, tried to distract the public
with a false issue,  and then threatened judges whom they disagreed
with. Yeppers real honest politicians. Nice to know how much access
you can buy.
