btw the rudd spill has come from gillard's low polling and shithouse take on leadership – if she weren't such a mystifying bell-end they wouldn't be imploding

i.e. if the rudd forces hadn't arced up someone else would have by now
rudd forces have been on constant sputtering arc since Gillard spill tho, if the party had gotten behind Gillard she wouldn't look so rickety

i'm not saying #spill is the solution, i'm saying it's understandable that they would want to save themselves from (a) electoral oblivion (b) just completely dying as a party

http://www.crikey.com.au/2012/02/20/gonski-a-simple-sensible-model-for-a-terrified-government/
It’s clear, judging by both the outcome of the Gonski review and the government’s immediate dispatch of it to the purgatory of COAG, that Labor has lost any appetite for making good the damage inflicted by the Howard government’s SES school funding model, which continues to this day to allocate millions of dollars to Australia’s wealthiest schools.That model was the Howard government at its most ideological, based on John Howard’s personal vision of a taxpayer-funded transformation of Australians into his ideal of Liberal voters — nuclear families, shareholders, privately schooled, using private health insurance. The conservative Catholic school system was a particular favourite of that government, serving as a low-income distraction from the direction of extraordinary levels of funding to Australia’s richest schools (and the rapid increase in that funding).Eventually that vision morphed into a simpler mass vote-buying exercise, as Howard’s social engineering gave way to pork-barrelling on an extraordinary scale that left it with a structural budget deficit and a profound sense of entitlement.
