Australian Prime Minister calls general election for Aug. 21
Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard has announced that a general election will be held on August 21 and has called on Governor-General Quentin Bryce to dissolve Parliament.
For days, speculations ran rampant as to when Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard would call for an election and when it would take place.
On Saturday, the Prime Minister announced that Australians will head to the polls on Aug. 21 when the country holds a general election, according to the Telegraph. Gillard called on GG Quentin Bryce to dissolve Parliament.
“This election, I believe, presents Australians with a very clear choice. This election is about the choice as to whether we move Australia forward or go back,” said Gillard in Caberra, reports Xinhua. “Moving forward with confidence also requires a strong set of convictions and a clear set of values. So in this, the forthcoming election campaign, I'll be asking the Australian people for their trust. I'll be asking Australians for their trust so that we can move forward together.”
SHE IS CONVINCED THAT BEING APPOINTED BY HER PARTY ON 24 JUNE 2010
DON'T COUNT.
I DREAD THE DAY THE AUSSIES WILL REFER TO OUR NAJIB AS
JELLY KNEED
(Australian Slang)
adjective:- to be a weak person, a coward or someone who is procrastinating doing something emotionally difficult.
RECALCITRANT
that was bad enough, remember?
Jelly kneed is so apt for the PM who has no balls but to increase prices. What freaking people first slogan is this? What a Plonker !
ReplyDeleteMat Aris
"Jelly Kneed" is an understatement!
ReplyDeleteCorrect word northerners use is "teloq kecut".
The red hair saw kevvie losing ground and did a turn around.
ReplyDeleteTo get the right mandate to be a PM is to call an election to proof that this is what the people of Australia want.
In Boleh land, it is the other way.It is about power and not seeing what the people want.
That is the difference between a mature Aust PM and a inmature Boleh land PM.
Mine you all, she is a lady where else yours is a Guy and she gots guts!!!
Our PM Najib is not the people PM He is the PM of corruptions first degree. Should is not then resolve the parliament and proof that he is
ReplyDeletethe people choice.
He is definitely jelly kneed, otherwise what reason is there for him not to call a GE when his popularity is at an all time high of 72%?
ReplyDeleteOr is it...he can't get the jelly kept tightly held between Rosemama's knees out??
ReplyDeleteSooo ... when is Rosmah going to make a similar announcement?
ReplyDeleteCoz Najib's too busy trying to figure out Perimekar's next move.
In Oz there are so many things that are far more superior than Bolehland other than politics and that's what make Oz a true democracy. No comparison lah. One is a civilized and developed nation whilst the other is still a third world country with third world mentality amongst her leaders. How to compare?
ReplyDeleteJulia Gillard is NOT a man but is a woman.
ReplyDeleteA woman that have the balls to let her country to make the decision.
najib?
I will not waste precious bandwidth dwelling into him.
....That's the reason, why I prefer to pay my taxes to Australia...I have repaid every cent I owed to Malaysia, sadly, it can be safely assumed that my hard earned money had gone to the wrong channel...to those blady bastards
ReplyDeleteThese UMNO SOBs just do not have the class and integrity to do the right thing!...and. this UMNO PM simply have no balls!
UMNO Prime Minister have no marbles, a C-C asshole... NOT FIT TO EVEN WEAR A SHIRT!
ReplyDeleteWhy should Najib call for the GE?? Is he required by law to do it like now??
ReplyDeleteZorro, why dont you take your same logic and ask Khalid to dissolve the Selangor State government?
The GE will come. Will you lot accept the mandate of the rakyat then??
Julia Gillard is a woman called for GE since she gotten Attantoya Man's Balls in her hand, that's why.
ReplyDeleteJulia Gillard doesn't need big balls to prove her competency in Leadership, a small Attantoya Man's Balls is good enuff.
Tong Najis is just another piece-a-shit created by Martians to pollute the Earth ecology!
I think what APCO had meant when they proposed the 1Malaysia concept should have been 'Sapu Malaysia'. So I strongly urge those Malaysians who are still in 'Bodohland' to wake up and let us 'sapu bersih bersih' Putrajaya of the slime balls, frogs, kangaroos etc. in the next GE.
ReplyDeleteThe simple and correct answer is GOD gave the Australians Julia and the Malaysian Najis.Australians behave like bees and have their share of honey and since we love the pesky flies in bn and pr,we gotta SHIT
ReplyDeleteNajib may have no balls but he is not as stupid as the other UMNOites. If he calls a snap election that will be the end of him.
ReplyDeleteBeing the ex-PM is one thing, but having his ass hauled to jail quite another.
(LOL)
Anon9:49...you just don't get it, do you? Just like Julia Gillard, your Jibby was made a PM by their respective political parties, NOT by the people! And in quite similar fashion too I might add, by toppling their leaders. But the big difference here is that Julia knows she has to go back to the people quickly to get a mandate to govern. This shows true guts and convictions and what true democracy is all about...let the people choose! Whereas here in your bolehland, the corrupted leaders hide behind the party apparatus and govern as if the country belongs to his grandfathers! Of course he would call an early election because he knows he will lose big time. There is too much to lose for you lots lah, just admit it lah, don't think people are 3 year-olds lah. You think people still believe you lots? Dream on......
ReplyDeleteNew Fart, thanks for doing what I did not want to do. I try not to rebut comments by people who are chronically thick up there. The Aussies would say: Dribble shit= Someone who talks a load of bull..LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks again brother....just hope your comments will permeate his thickness.
Anon9:49...Just as New fart said, you just do not get it right and he had explained in clear English to you.You must be a damn d@#$Head not to understand at all.By the way, did you study at Bodohland or Bolehland!
ReplyDeleteIt is not rocket science!Julia went back to seek a mandate.
Did "Shit" went back to the people seek a mandate?
Either way a snap is called now or when his term is due in coming GE...his odds is slim!
Anon (9:49am),
ReplyDeletePerak would be the 'better' example for 'moral' courage, if Najib dares.
And that's the crux of this posting which is somehow lost on you, isn't it?
Your fuzzy logic remains .. fuzzy still.
Seriously though, if you're THAT dense, don't play "knock, knock" games.
SOFT KNEES COMING EARLY
ReplyDeleteWeak knees often come with old age
But for weak politicians at any stage
To chicken out may be an inherited heritage
Not worthy to be included in any history's page

Anon 9:49AM,
ReplyDeleteToo blur to notice or deliberately don't want to? Najib deceives all the time, he definitely lacks moral and political integrity. See how he allows pitbulls to do the dirty job that umno must not be seen doing? - to spit racial slurs and threatening non-Malays eg recently BN coalition partner MCA VP Wee KaSiong. ...and MCA is doing nothing, yes still waiting!
If we allow Najib and his BN retards another term, it goes to show we Malaysians are no better than those "retards" who aren’t concern for the future of this country!
Dear new fart, Anon 7.15pm and shar101,
ReplyDeleteBefore you lot pull down your panties, please re-read my questions again as below:
Why should Najib call for the GE?? Is he required by law to do it like now??
Before you go about calling someone else thick, please take a good look at your sorry selves. Where is it written in our Constitution that Najib is required to call for the GE??
And where is it written in our Constitution that our PM should be decided by the people?? Where??
I mean before you lot go about calling me names and all, please lah get your facts right first.
If my views dont agree with you lot, engage or debate me in a civil manner rather than resorting to petty insults. Have some class, at least.
And Zorro, looking at your response, all I can say is that it reflects on your maturity.
"Perak would be the 'better' example for 'moral' courage, if Najib dares." - shar101
Perak would not be what it is today had PR selected better quality candidates.
If you cant get this, I guess your thickness is beyond help.
Thank you Anon (9:49am & 9:05pm) for re-affirming your dense-ness (sic).
ReplyDeleteYour pathetic attempt at equating a mandate pre-requisite for Najib to sustain his premiership on legalistic grounds is sooooo .. Perkasa-ish as in their misguided reference to Art 153 to prop up their ketuanan melayu agenda.
For the sake of argument, you wanna rebut the following:
Despite the FC being the supreme law of the nation, there's nothing there about the appointment of a DPM except that it's the sole prerogative of the PM of the day.
Najib took over as PM from Badawi due to UMNO Baru's real-politicking, and not because Najib had the people's mandate through a proper referendum.
Gettit?
"Perak would not be what it is today had PR selected better quality candidates".
Then, pray tell us how on earth did BN lose 4 states (never mind Kelantan) and its two-thirds parliamentary majority during GE12 if it's not for the losers populating the BN stable.
Still don't gettit, huh?

ReplyDeleteI just looked up, the law does not prevent me making a pass at your mum, sister, wife or daughter. And except maybe for your wife, I might go further with the rest with no legal conswequences, unless of course your sister or daughter is below 16.
What stops me doing it is my morality! Get it!! So stop talking cock about law and constitution! It is no thte be all and end all!
shar101,
ReplyDeleteStay on subject, will you? You are going all over the place. Calm down else you are looking more like a mong.
Again ... is Najib required by law to call for a GE like now?? Take your time on this one. Think it through a little before you shoot your mouth off.
As for our PM, again where is it written that it must be chosen/selected/voted by the people?? Where is it in our Constitution that says our PM must have the people's mandate?
Dont confuse yourself with Perak regarding BN losing 4 states and 3/3 majority in the last GE. Perak was lost due to PR fielded wishy washy candidates, period.
In Malaysia, the moment the GE is concluded, the winning party shall decide amongst themselves who shall be the PM (usually chief of winning party) and the DPM shall be appointed by the Agong with the discretion/advice of the PM.
ReplyDeleteThis is off the top of my head.
The rest of you should watch this video made by the winner of Freedom Film Festival on the Perak Issue. It's excellent.

Bernard,
ReplyDeleteJust what can we expect from a Spoilt Uninitiated Unresourceful Mummy's/now Mama's boy to "Perform" after being the youngest "Appointed Politician" for donkey's years to being the "Usurped Positioned PeeM"...to compare with Julia Gillard !
Looking at her background...
Julia Gillard, Australia's First Female Prime Minister -
http://australian-affairs.suite101.com/article.cfm/julia-gillard-australias-first-female-prime-minister
The "key factor" that ensured Gillard's victory was "the decision by the powerful Labor Party groups, the Australian Workers Union and the Health Services Union to support her" rather than Kevin Rudd.
Immediately following Julia Gillard's appointment to the post, there was speculation that a general election would be held within weeks to capitalise on the honeymoon period that almost all newly elected leaders are given by the electorate.
In a television interview on the day of her election, Gillard confirmed that a general election would be held in 2010."
Read on Book Review - Power Plays by Laurie Oakes
Taken from Laurie Oakes' Bulletin column of the same name, Power Plays recounts the important events and people in Australian politics.
Julia Gillard, Australia's First Woman Prime Minister's Background
Born in Wales in 1961, Julia Gillard's parent emigrated to Australia in 1966 and settled in Adelaide in South Australia.
She attended the city's Unley High School and then the Universities of Adelaide and Melbourne where she became active in national student politics.
"Elected to the Australian federal parliament at the 1998 general election, "she carried a number of opposition portfolios ( Population and Immigration, Reconciliation and Indigenous Affairs, and Health)"... before becoming Deputy Leader to Kevin Rudd when he became Prime Minister in 2007 following the Labor Party's overwhelming victory over John Howard.
In addition to being deputy prime minister, "she also held the post of Minister for Education, Employment and Workplace Relations."

In just about 12 years since elected to Federal, this woman made it as the PM of Australia & still wants a G/E to "Re-Affirm" her status to move Australia "Forward"...
On Saturday, the Prime Minister announced that Australians will head to the polls on Aug. 21 when the country holds a general election, according to the Telegraph. Gillard called on GG Quentin Bryce to dissolve Parliament.
“This election, I believe, presents Australians with a very clear choice. This election is about the choice as to whether we move Australia forward or go back,” said Gillard in Caberra, reports Xinhua.

One of the Attributes & Great words of a "True Self-Achieved Leader"...
Politically she would put Jibby & his Jaguh Kampung Morons "in her pocket in 2 minutes (Maggi Mee Lor!"
You be the judge,
Cheers.
Anon 11:15PM
ReplyDelete..hmmm which 'wishy-washy' characters are you refering to in Perak?
The mastermind of Perak Powergrab made 2 trips there with "YOU help me, I help YOU" long before Sibu!
Anon,
ReplyDeleteYou're being deliberately dense on the matter.
And the '3/3' majority reflects on YOUR state of mind.
It figures.
JIBBY IS ON BORROWED MANDATE TO RULE AND CHEAT THE RAKYATS WITH ALL HIS EXCESSES ALL HE CAN NOW, RM12 BILLION FOR PM DEPT, AND GOT NO BALLS TO PROVE HIS WORTH, NOT LIKE THE FIRST AUSTRALIAN LADY PRIME MINISTER WHO DARED TO ASKED FOR FRESH MANDATE OF HER OWN IN WITHIN 2 MONTHS OF TAKING OVER THE GOVERNMENT
ReplyDeleteBASING ON THIS WE SHOULD ALL KNOW WHAT IS JIBBY AND HIS WHOLE REGIME OF CHEATING THE RAKYATS WITH ALL HIS EXCESSES IS WORTHY OF OK?
yeah anon9:05, hide behind the barking constitution for all you want. That's the best you lots could do...just hide behind the constitution every time when issues concerning your people are debated!!! You guys are just so good at it that it seems pathetic!
ReplyDeleteHi Bro Zor...no problem mate, it's always a pleasure trying to enlighten some of these skunk-heads on you blog. But guess it will be a long hard road. But fair dinkum, although it would not be easily fixed in your lifetime and mine, I am sure the future generations will continue the struggle!
ReplyDeleteshar101,
ReplyDeleteThe 3/3 majority was a typo. Should you want to blow that up, its up to you.
But since we are on that subject matter, please take a look at what you wrote below:
"Then, 'pray' tell us how on earth did BN lose 4 states (never mind Kelantan) and its two-thirds parliamentary majority during GE12 if it's not for the losers populating the BN stable." - shar101
"Pray"??? Going by your standards, I guess it reflects not only your state of mind but level of education as well.
Now I get it why the likes of you have trouble understanding basic stuff.
Dear new fart,
ReplyDeleteWhats there to hide behind the Constitution??! Facts are facts la. Just because certain things in the Constitution dont agree with you, do you really have to act like a 3 yr old?
And resorting to petty insults is the solution for you?? Real class, dude. Class!
