I am surprised that you are such an apologist for this government. I love your blog and jelly beans work though.

Thanks for responding, I did read the content of the link in your post and browsed over all of the authors other posts however upon googling the authors background I find it difficult to accept that his is a balanced view given his past employment in the office of the current PM and the fact that he offers 0 by way of anything positive relating to the opposition party.

Cheers

P.S. I see that you swap comments with Cav often, I don't know him but he is apparently very handsome!
