Opposition for opposition's sake

END opposition for opposition’s sake would be a good place to start.

Change question time so any elected representative from either house can ask any other elected representative from either house a question – a job for the speakers.

Above all the questions should be ANSWERED with penalties for inadequate answers (questions on notice accepted private questions in private) notified to the speaker.

END the media reporting quotes from the person who wrote the Australian handbook on opposition for opposition sake – T Abbott (trained by J Howard).
