*sigh* I hate german politicians. In a way, I'm glad I'm a year to young to vote in this one (yesterday). I can't decide which party sucks most.... gah!
1. despite the fact that no one won, everyone seems to be claiming victory (maybe more so in germany...)
2. the parties all sucked arse imnsho
coinicdence given they happened in the same weekend? I THINK NOT!!
The citizens of Germany and New Zealand can count themselves lucky, the pollies are going to be so busy arguing amongst themselves that we'll all be able to get on with our lives with out worrying about what new laws they'd otherwise be pooping out.
Expect gummint spending to take a welcome dive while they compromise party principles, double deal,make and break coalitions as they all scramble to get their hands on the reins.
