Don't give up on hope. The absurd high court ruling which has booted Deputy PM Barnaby Joyce from parliament is explicable. Nothing will really change. Joyce will face a bye election. Joyce was born in Australia and has never asked for citizenship of anywhere else. His dad had been born in NZ before it attained full nationhood status. A NZ regulation claiming that Joyce's father's birth was sufficient to make Joyce a NZ citizen has had Joyce booted from parliament by the ruling. Memo China and Russia, Di Natale and Shorten warrant being your citizens because of their market views on communism. I get it Putin does not want either, but comrade, the Soviet Union was bigger and needs them. The ruling has not affected ALP members yet as they have closed ranks, but it can strike any of them. The ruling upholds the Australian constitution that does not allow leeway on citizenship. So, the ruling is absurd, but it upholds the constitution and won't change much.
Some are jeering, claiming Joyce was not very good. Joyce is an outstanding parliamentarian who has done much for the nation and the National Party. While Turnbull chases fads and casts aspersions at his most effective ministers (Dutton, Morrison and Joyce), Joyce has been supporting the Australian farming community. With 100 dams, Joyce is providing water security for times of drought and flood. Joyce is not the idiot behind Turnbull's energy policy. We need more like Joyce in parliament.
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...
