10. country folk.....
Hi foreigncorrespondent

What I find interesting is that if you change your sentence from

"And many of my country folk the same way as I do."

to

"And many of THE country folk the same way as I do."

it still holds true, and not wishing any offence, but once the rural (typically Lib/Nat ) voters turn against them they are in a fair bit of trouble.

And, in case you have a tinfoil hat, do you think they have agreed to this dirty little "free" trade thing as a great way to ensure the Nats disappear at the next election? Surely the Nats will be punished in the rural seats not the Libs in the city, and if the libs are out anyway, it would be much easier for the libs to retake the seats from the left than from the right at the next election. Lucky it's too hot for foil in Qld :-)
