Australia Has the First Female Prime Minister

[Blackleaf]

The thing i like about the Australian and the UK Parliamentary system is that the MPs ultimately choose the PM. The Party System that Canada has adopted essentially puts the petty party ideologues in charge of picking the leader at Party Conventions.
That's how we ended up with a nitwit like Justin Trudeau with no leadership ability or no political vision beyond a slavish subservience to feminism, homosexuality, radical environmentalism and, multiculturalism. His ideological franchise exists solely in the Liberal Party of Canada.
What this does is disenfranchise the ridings and and electorate from choosing the Prime Minister through their MPs. It's really why a mediocrity like Harper held on for so long. Scott Morrisson took over from his predecessor, Malcolm Turnbull, when the latter proposed eviscerating carbon taxes on the country and supported same sex marriage and was given the boot by the Conservative alliance.

Rather unfortunately, in 2016 Tory MPs elected May as PM, who turned out to be the worst British PM since George Canning, but that's only because he was PM for just four months in 1827 until he died from severe pneumonia and a gunshot wound inflicted by a Cabinet colleague.

And May is head and shoulders over Trudeau and probably twice the man!

It's a bit of a tough call. Both are very bad. May isn't even a Conservative. She's a liberal. And so was Cameron before her. The only REAL Tory leading a British party at the moment is Farage, and his Brexit Party is set for a landslide victory in the UK segment of the EU elections on Thursday.

By the way, he was here today in Bolton giving a speech at a packed-out University of Bolton Stadium (home of Bolton Wanderers). Chock full of placard-waving, cheering, clapping worshippers, it was. Farage is almost like a god in Britain right now.

On Thursday, the Remainer MPs, British Establishment and EU aren't even going to know what hit them.

The mighty Leavers are back in business...

But at least the Parties in Britain can get rid of ineffective leaders. As Britain would have if they could get any kind of consensus in Conservative Party for a replacement for May. In the Canadian System the Party Leader has virtual dictatorial control of party policy through the PMO office until he ultimately leads them to defeat at the polls.

All party members got to vote for the leader of the CPC. Same when we chose Harper.

Sadly the milk lobby had so much cash to throw around . Pretty hard to support kept men .

It still disenfranchises the riding's electorates in favour of party hacks and electors stacked with new members of questionable quality and authenticity garnered through candidate membership drives.

I've been less than impressed with Andrew Scheer who has failed to establish any kind of vision, clear policy platform, identity, profile in his time as party leader.

It's a system that allowed Justin Trudeau to 'sign off' on candidate papers providing they pledged to support unfettered abortion in glaring contradiction of the Liberal's traditional position of not imposing policy over matters of MPs personal conscience.

I'm pretty sure Trudeau is history in November. I just have no idea what Scheer will provide. Canada needs a Donald Trump, a combative iconoclast not subservient by the Conservative, NeoCon, Free Trade, Corporatist, Establishment and I deeply doubt that Scheer will provide that.

Canada needs an economic and cultural nationalist. And it needs a real social conservative who doesn't view that as a cynical device to tie up a voter demographic without any real imperative to follow through (as with Harper).

We haven't had someone who fits that bill in decades of Prime Ministerial mediocrity of both main parties.
