Particularly with subjects such as time devoted to Private Member Bills, lengthy questions that are tantamount to frustration and a closer working relationship with the Senate, parliamentary reform will be one of the first benefits that will accrue to our parliamentary system of government.

Conclusion

Notionally Western society is based on the Greek system of thought. Results, power, and strength are a reflection of success, order and stability. This has fostered the majoritarian mindset that pervades the community through a mob mentality; might is always right. The media themselves repose on this ample couch. Indeed, to exist in a climate of minority government, a definite divergence with the usual assumptions is required, together with a far more thoughtful process taken to governance. No longer is the butchery of majority politics an option. Parliament will now have to think deeply before it endorses policy, while it negotiates policy, and when it addresses the consequences of policy. It appears that the MySchool.com ideology so gleefully imposed upon members of the Teachers Federation is now being applied to all Members of Parliament, particularly a minority government.
