You would love Australian politics if you thought U.S. was bad. We've got
- the ENTIRE country flipping out over ~1000 refugees (half of whom are apparently going to the U.S.)
- Environment Minister who doesn't believe in climate change and wanted to dredge the Barrier Reef for a coal mine
- A PM who is incredibly unpopular and is likely to be overthrown, making the potentional number of non-democratic leadership spills 4
- Dail-Up internet being the only affordable option in several rural areas. (Including where my grandparents live :/)
- An opposition leader who is pretty much our Hillary Clinton, (reallly sketchy union business/trials, terrible legal history) and won't shut up about his opinion of Trump
- half of a states' senate (Queensland) going to Pauline Hanson's (only notable for being extremely anti-aboriginal/anti-immigration) One Nation party, with most of the people electing her coming from the part of Australia with the least number of immigrants
- Adversiments being aired about 'the benefits of coal' on most major TV networks
And the next (democratic) election isn't until 2019.
