A new type of democracy in Australia?

Here’s another reason why I think our democracy is in good shape.

Can we see these blokes – alongside the Greens and Andrew Wilkie and Nick Xenophon – as the new guardians of democracy in our nation?

I think we should all start really looking at voting in independents into our parliaments, and see the end of the tyranny of  Major Political Party.

I am sure there is a lot one or all of these blokes would say/believe in that I would disagree with; however I am confident – based upon this very simple elucidation of their ideals and and opinion on how parliament should really function.

And listen out for Bob Kattar’s beautiful, and poignant, comment at the end: “We’re moving out of the 19th century and into whatever we’re in now”.
