While Abbott asked the Australian voting public to put the 'Adults in Charge', it seems instead that the 'inmates are running the asylum'. People are entertained by fools, but they don't take them seriously and they don't listen to them.
It seems that even before this government has completed its first year in power, thinking Australians have written them off... completely.
A great deal of money and influence went into installing the current government. Not least from Gina Rinehart who personally bankrolled a significant proportion of Barnaby Joyce's campaign to enter the lower house. She also personally attended Barnarby's election after party. Gina has also installed herself as a sage to whom all Australians should listen to closely. Following Gina's prescription will enrich Gina herself, but she assures it will also enrich the nation... if we are willing to accept wages in the order of $2/day.
Gina has been rightly lampooned for her attempts at political influence and advocacy.. see below.

But perhaps it's best to leave the last laugh to the Cartoonists - haven't they had a field day since the September election?
