Regardless of your political biases it is without dispute that our Prime Minister Julia Gillard has no mandate to form a government and is therefore an illegitimate Prime Minister!
Now before all of the Green Voting, labor voting people start abusing me let me state my case and then please consider it and I would love to have intelligent thoughtful apposing views that point out the errors of my stance, if there are any. That is how I learn, I am always happy to adopt another view point if it is clearly and coherently stated.
Julia Gillard Is an illegitimate Prime Minister because:-
1: The Coalition won more seats in their own right, latest AEC figures put it at: Coalition 73 Labor 71.
2: The coalition has won the majority of the Two Party Preferred vote
3: The coalition has won the majority of the first preference votes
So by all measures the majority of Australians gave their vote to the coalition.
Therefore even though a majority of the people on this forum I believe will appose the coalition and my stance, if you are fair, you have to say that the "independents" have helped Jullia Gillard's Labor party form Government despite the wishes of the majority of Australians.
We the people have had our wishes ignored and disregarded.

There's nothing more fucked than politicians! It honestly doesn't matter who wins! Nothing will change!
Well then based on their stats, the Coalition would still be ahead 74 seats to 73, so it just makes it even more of a farce than what it already is really.
Wait, the Greens guy and Wilkie sided with Gillard too, so that'd make it 75 to 74 to Labor, but it still doesn't discount the fact that more people were supportive of the Liberals.
Found the comment laughable from Tony Windsor when he said that one reason for backing the ALP was that Abbott was more likely to win any new election.
