Jesus bloody Christ... You know how coups are normally done AGAINST a government? This is effectively the opposite of that - a coup against the public. Never in my wildest nightmares would I have thought it would come to, in Australia... We're a lost cause, at this point. - Kotaku In Action 2

FYI, Liberal with a capital L down here is the "conservative" party, in theory...

Theyre Conservatives in the sense that their just a bit Right of the Labour Party. Never forget that it was a "Conservative" Government that disarmed us, fuck you John Howard

Yeah...

I mean, even when Menzies founded it, it was more "economically" conservative/laissez-faire, than anything else... I don't think they've ever been overly socially conservative, Howard be damned...

If anything, as you say, they've always been sort of "middle of the road", centre right, even under Menzies and his direct successors...
