@magpie ultimately I think the only thing they would consider vital would be staying in power
-
@magpie other than supply, I don't know what would be so vital that they would go to the polls, unless they were confident of a victory. After all, the "greatest moral challenge of our time" wasn't vital enough!
-
@michaeltstrss76 not really the idea of this place
-
@magpie absolutely I could see that happen, but that wouldn't be enough to go to an election unless Labor wanted to
-
@magpie all I can claim is a passing familiarity with modal logic. I get the impression it is more the domain of philosophers than mathematicians these days.
-
@magpie Abbott cannot force a return to the polls, unless someone peels away from supporting the Govt on supply and confidence motions
-
@magpie it is in the interests of the independents to make it last, so it has a reasonable chance
-
@magpie it will be an interesting 3 years. I think that the Govt will survive and some legislation will get through (eg NBN), but some things will be a struggle.
-
@magpie I thought Windsor and Oakeshott would go with Labor and not Katter. With those two backing Labor, he can maintain face with his electorate but still have influence on any legislation that's a close call.
-
@senexx well done!
-
I have been getting a bit too buried in techie stuff this week: ended up writing a Wordpress plugin.
-
@evo it's a very olde worlde sounding term
-
@magpie I thought it would split the way it did...if only I'd documented that prediction here!
-
@magpie it is impressive and I commended him highly!
-
@magpie which is fair enough, but still an impressive call
-
@magpie his explanation: "cynicism without more than passing glances at historical precedents, which I fully expected to be borne out in the coming years, and shall continue to do so as long as the current system and human greed remain"
-
@magpie by the way, that prophetic comment made on the Keynes post two years ago was written by one of my brothers
-
@zebra look to the left quickly and you'll see the gaffer jumping out of shot...
-
@zebra either that, or smaller parties form alliances to just get to 50%...hard to sustain more
-
Having a look at Protovis...maybe coming to a blog post soon! http://vis.stanford.edu/protovis/
