WHAT DOES A HUNG PARLIAMENT MEAN CONSTITUTIONALLY?
The potential of a hung parliament in Australia, following yesterday's election, has raised questions about the constitutional situation.
The final decision of how many seats each party has will probably not be known for some days but, once all results are in, if it is found that no one party has a clear majority, negotiations will commence with the Green and independent members to enlist their support.
The Governor-General is vested with constitutional powers to commission a person to form a government but, by convention, these are never used in an arbitrary sense.
The duty of the Governor-General is to commission the leader of the party which can prove it has sufficient support in the lower house of the parliament to survive a vote of no confidence. Until then, the incumbent government continues in caretaker mode.
If, in the future, those independents who had pledged support, decide to withdraw and support the other party, then the Governor-General will, upon being certain that the other party would survive a vote in the House of Representatives, commission the leader of that party to form a government. If the situation is likely to continue to be unstable, then the
Governor-General will seek a consensus on holding an election.
The number of electoral votes gained by any one party is, in a constitutional sense, immaterial - although it may influence the non-aligned members. It is all about votes of elected members in the House of Representatives.
The whole process is based on providing the country with the most stable government possible.

Is Julia Gillard validly a Member of Parliament?
On the 23rd June 1999 the High Court ruled that Heather Hill could not validly hold the seat in the Australian Senate to which she was elected. Mrs Hill was born in the United Kingdom on the 9th August 1960. Under British law, birth in Britain normally confers U.K. citizenship. British citizenship ceases on registration of a declaration of renunciation.
Mrs Hill became an Australian Citizen and pledged her "loyalty to Australia and its people, who democratic beliefs I share, whose rights and liberties I respect, and whose laws I will uphold and obey". She applied for and obtained and used an Australian passport. At the time of her election to the Senate no renunciation of British Citizenship by Mrs Hill had been registered.
The problem for Mrs Hill was that section 44 of the Australian Constitution declares that a person holding citizenship or rights of citizenship in a foreign country (including UK) is ineligible to be a member of the Senate or House of Representatives. The fact that Mrs Hill was an Australian citizen was not in doubt. The issue was whether she could hold dual citizenship, to which the High Court answered "no".
The question is : "Has Julia Gillard renounced British citizenship in proper form and has the renunciation been registered?"
A FUTURE VISION for Western Australia in which Government offers strong and enduring incentives to city and rural business and their communities to grow existing towns into viable and sustainable new regional cities.
A policy where the requirements of local communities are always addressed ahead of foreign aid, immigrants, asylum seekers and the affairs of minorities.
An ECONOMY based on incentives for all. A fair reward for an honest day’s work. Drastically reduced red tape. Predictability and sound, balanced, economic planning.
A firm focus on HEALTH AND DENTAL EXPENDITURE. Genuine health care, rather than bureaucracy or the state v federal squabble.
To create completely unique and affordable HOME OWNERSHIP options for all Western Australians.
To fight and preserve FREEDOM OF SPEECH and end POLITICAL CORRECTNESS and the failed experiment of MULTICULTURALISM which divides Australians into toxic warring tribes and harms our children.
To rid our schools of the poison of left wing political interference, political correctness and multi-culturalism. To pursue pathways to excellence in our children’s education.
To reward PENSIONERS with a wide range of new financial and other benefits befitting their status as senior citizens. These will include relaxing income earning capacity and reducing tax.
To stop the IMMIGRATION FARCE whereby citizens are created via the backdoor path of student entry, permanent residency and easy citizenship. Entry of family members will also be closely regulated.
To firmly stamp “temporary” on TEMPORARY VISAS and block this pathway to backdoor citizenship, while also limiting the right of appeal.

A WARNING FLAG FOR AUSTRALIA!
Third World Immigrants Import Unemployment, New Study Confirms
Third World immigrants into Britain are responsible for the overwhelming majority of unemployed benefit seekers in many areas, a new study has shown.
The figures, which confirm the intolerable burden which immigration has placed on the benefits system in Britain, mirrors the situation in other European countries such as the Netherlands where 60 percent of benefits users are Third World immigrants.
According to the new report, issued by MigrationwatchUK, the “relationship between immigration and youth unemployment is positive and significant in those areas that have experienced the highest rates of immigration.”
Sir Andrew Green, Chairman of Migrationwatch UK, said in a press release that "People have tiptoed around this issue for far too long. Many factors contribute to youth unemployment but this research suggests that immigration is a significant factor.”
The report said that “youth unemployment is an important and growing social and economic problem.
“Unemployment of 18 – 24 year olds is currently running at more than twice the overall unemployment rate (17.5 percent compared with 7.8 percent), with 724,000 unemployed. A quarter of young people without a job have been unemployed for more than 12 months.
“The employment rate for young people is also strikingly lower (at 59 percent) than the overall rate of employment.”
The Migrationwatch report then quoted from the April 2008 House of Lords report on the economic impacts of immigration which said that “youth unemployment has increased by about 100,000 since early 2004 and the participation rate has dropped from 69.4 percent to 67.4 percent.”
In other words, the empirical evidence is clear: large numbers of Third World immigrants are not “contributing to economic activity” or “keeping the welfare state afloat through taxes” but are in fact making the problem worse. Link HERE
Cities like Perth, Adelaide, Cairns, Sydney and Melbourne soon to be at risk
Other evidence of the impact of Third World immigration in London can be found in the book The Immigration Invasion.
In the chapter dealing with Britain, that book reports: “Unemployment in inner London is almost twice the national average — 7.1 percent compared with 3.6 percent in the UK. In addition, some 42.1 percent of children in inner London are eligible for free school meals. This compares with an average of 15.8 percent of children nationally.
“In December 2001, 10 of the 25 Parliamentary constituencies with the highest unemployment rates in the UK were in London. London is, says the Association of London Government, home to more unemployed people than any other region in the UK and more than the combined total of Scotland and Wales.
“According to a report released by the office of the mayor of London in November 2002, more than half the 600,000 children living in inner London are being brought up below the government’s official poverty line.
“According to this report, 30 percent of inner London’s working age adults are already below the poverty line. The mayor of London’s own report on poverty in the capital points out that poverty is highest among ethnic minority groups, with 73 percent of Pakistani and Bangladeshi children and 55 percent of black children living in poverty after housing costs.”
The Truth about Pensions… and the Lies of our Leaders
Nick Minchin on the Tony Jones ABC TV Program Q & A 11/09/2008 stated quite clearly that funds were not, have not and are not collected and held in a bank account waiting for the government to pay it out in the form of the Old Age Pension, or words that meant, “exactly that.”
As an ex Australian Federal Government finance Minister, now shadow defence minister, this man knows that his statement on that television program, was a blatant lie. Full Story HERE
IMMIGRATION FACTS
FACTS AND FIGURES EVERY AUSTRALIAN SHOULD KNOW!
Based upon statements and figures provided by the Commonwealth Department of Immigration and Citizenship.
Introduction
This document provides facts and figures from the Department’s own website and shows how deeply Australia is now sunk in the third world overpopulation, corruption, global migration whirlpool.
Horrifying as it may seem, everything you read here is a consequence of the failed policies and wrong headed actions of previous governments, both Labor and Liberal.
The entire immigration, refugee and asylum seeker shambles is a result of prior Australian governments failing to consult with the people and do their will and also not fully considering the consequences of signing the agreements and international treaties that now bind us hand and foot.
If previous governments had simply consulted with the Australian people, then our nation would be a far happier and less tension ridden place. Now, both the Labor and Liberal parties find themselves in a world of grief. Full Story HERE
A Call to All Patriots to help
stop the destruction of Australia
And how can man die better Than facing fearful odds, For the ashes of his fathers, And the temples of his gods,…" Lays of Ancient Rome - Horatius.
How Indeed? The very foundations of OUR Australia are shaking under the weight of a flood of foreigners.
Once the problem was just Asia, now they flood in from every nation and failed society on earth.
An entire industry of graft and corruption has grown up as more and more of these people drain the vitals of Australia - a silent cancer growing within.
Leaky boats are just a small part of this invasion - a media diversion. Stand at any international airport entry gate at any time day or night when overseas flights arrive and you will see the appalling flood at its full tide.
Hundreds target Australia as a paradise to be pillaged through our generous health and social security systems and lax tracking of foreigners within our borders. Even more slide in on temporary work visas or as "students" - many have the sole aim of dodging or exploiting the system and staying.

What Exactly does a Billion Dollars
look like?
The next time you hear a politician use the Word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about whether you want the 'politicians' spending YOUR tax money.
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective in one of its press releases.A.
A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
B.
A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
C.
A billion hours ago our ancestors were
Living in the Stone Age.
D.
A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
E.
A billion dollars ago was only
13 hours and 12 minutes,
At the rate the Gillard government
is spending it!
Will Labor raise the GST?
Julia Gillard's knifing of Kevin Rudd shows without doubt that Labor will do anything to retain power in Canberra.
As much as we abhorred Rudd's policies, we can have sympathy with the way he was treated and then that compounded by being refused inclusion on the front bench.
Again, Labor shows a complete lack of loyalty toward their own. So how much loyalty do you think they have for the public, for those who voted them in?
Only the PARTY reigns supreme with Labor's power brokers, and obviously Gillard.
Now watch for her announcement of a rise in GST to replace Rudd's other failed tax increases!
UK VAT 17.5% EU VAT 17% Greece VAT 23%
How long will Julia Gillard resist?
Twenty seven taxes and counting...
Today we pay tax on top of tax. From the ubiquitous GST to payrol tax and the big new mining slug. The list was to big to put in this column.
Yet, not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago. And our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world.
We had absolutely no national debt...
We had the largest middle class in the world...
And Mum stayed home to raise the kids.
