We never see any change.

So, Julia Gillard had to resign as the Prime Minister after she was stabbed in the back by her own party. She has been replaced by Kevin Rudd who was deposed by her in 2010 after a leadership challenge as Rudd had become extremely unpopular. Rudd is a former diplomat, speaks fluent Mandarin and is a Chinese lickspittle. Since he lost his leadership of the Labour Party and the post of Prime Minster he has been plotting to bring down Gillard, never mind the damage to the party and country. Unfortunately for her Gillard failed to win a majority in general elections in 2010 and was obliged to form a coalition government with the Greens who forced her to levy a carbon tax which made her deeply unpopular because she had ruled out such a tax when campaigning for the elections. This, however, does not excuse the vicious and disgusting personal attacks on her over the last 3 years. She was called a bitch and a witch. Some recommended that she should be killed. They made fun of the shape of her body. In a recent interview on radio she was asked whether her partner was a homosexual. Australians, while claiming to be a developed nation, never accepted the fact that she had never married, did not have children, was an atheist and was living with a former hairdresser. Still that does not excuse the kind of abuse and insults she had to face. Leader of the opposition Liberal Party, Tony Abbott gave speeches while standing in front of banners saying " ditch the bitch ". He attended a dinner where the menu described a quail as having " small breasts, huge thighs and a big red box ". Kevin Rudd talked about honor when his actions were dictated by revenge, vindictiveness and a complete lack of chivalry. Shows how politicians are repulsive everywhere. However, there was one very positive aspect to this story. Julia Gillard has announced that she will not be contesting the parliamentary elections due to be held in the next 3 months which means she is effectively retiring from her career in politics. Here in India our politicians are the most repulsive in the world. Not only are they completely without any morals but there seems to be no way to get rid of the scoundrels. There is no term limit so they continue to hang on to their seats which gives them the opportunity to loot. There is no age bar so we have to see the same ugly old faces forever. And they do not die so nothing changes. Is there any other country more unlucky than us?
