I don't fully understand what's going on over there, politically.

Just Google Emily Scott.

You're ripe for Real Democracy then. Their may be a language barrier and the people we will repress will be Caucasian for a change but hey seems like a done deal.

Maybe you'll get a taste before the Caliphate... I guess time will tell but things are looking up for your continent.

Australian Women Left Directionless After Minister For Women Loses Job

Australian’s women are desperate for guidance and uncertain of their future today, after the nation’s highest female representative, Tony Abbott, was forced to stand down.

“I’m not sure where to turn to, or who to look to for advice,” said Sandy Couper of Melbourne, capturing the sense of uncertainty Australian women feel following the fall of Mr Abbott.

In particular, women say they are concerned that a carbon tax, or a similar scheme, may be reinstated, setting back months of progress for the feminist cause.

“I fear that Malcolm Turnbull will bring back some sort of price on carbon. Where does that leave woman’s rights? Where does that leave equality? Where does that leave equal pay for equal work?” Josie Thompson of Brisbane said, adding that Mr Abbott had done more for ironing costs in this country than any other leader in living memory.

Mia Aish of Perth said that while she would have her female friends for support, all Australian woman had lost their strongest supporter. “He knew woman better than we know ourselves. He has a wife and three daughters for god’s sake”.

Thousands Of Flags To Lose Jobs
By The Shovel on September 15, 2015

Thousands of the nation’s flags are out of work today after Tony Abbott was deposed as Prime Minister.

At an emergency meeting this morning, Australia’s flags were told work would be cut back, with many to be made redundant. Some, they were told, had already been hoisted up the flagpole for the last time.

A spokesperson for Australia’s flags said it was a dark day for the trade. “Employment for Australia’s flags has grown considerably under the Abbott Government. Now we’re facing unemployment rates of up to 50%, possibly higher for younger flags”.

He said there could be a whole generation of flags that may never get a job at a press conference or take part in a 10-flag security announcement. “That in itself is a tragedy,” he said.

One flag we spoke to said he was one of the lucky ones. “I’ve been in this game a while, and I’ve had my fair share of work, particularly recently. But I do fear for the young guys coming up, especially – dare I say it – if there’s a move towards a Republic”.

He said he should have seen the change in leadership coming. “I’ve spent my life looking at poles. But we were taken by surprise. Really for us, last night’s poll was the only poll that mattered”.
