75 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.

As I tried to explain elsewhere, Liberal with a capital L are the conservative party, in Australia...
Though "conservative" just means... Somewhere in between the Dems and Reps in the US. They're not all that conservative in reality.
But they aren't what you think of as "liberals", or at least they don't brand themselves that way...
Hence, we use "progressive" to describe the people you are talking about, down here, generally speaking...
Confusing, I know, but that's the general idea.
I explained it more in one of my earlier comments.
