There has been a major stink up in Oz Parliament this week, due to the Leader of the opposition siding with the Labour Govt on the Emissions Trading Scheme bill. Five MP's have resigned from the front bench over it, and it looks like our current Liberal leader (Turnbull - who was against the inquiry into Scn), will be voted out of the leadership on Monday - It would seem that either of the two candidates who would take over his position, would be more favourable towards an inquiry than Turnbull has been.
Given the time of year (our summer holiday season is about to start, in which time many workplaces shut down or go into slow mode), after next week, Parliament won't be sitting as such, till Feb. Next week no doubt, all attention will be on sorting out who is who in the zoo. There's no doubt that once it's all sorted, Sen Xen and we, will have some different MP's to "enlighten" as to why an inquiry is needed. That is something we can do before Christmas.
Now is also the time to get any and all docs, petitions, etc, together, so that we can forward those to Sen X in order for him to get others on side before xmas, and before Parliament comes back in early Feb to vote on it.
Time is on our side, but it will be wasted if we don't use it....let's do so.

In addition to the above, any and all protests by Anon, and signed petitions, would be grand!
Thanks, C
