Elections and democracy - Australia doesn't know what democracy is anymore

This is going to be a short post and then I'm opening up the floor to you.  You can comment on this blog, which is an absolute rarity.

The media for the last week or so has been trying to create a leadership spill within the LNP saying Prime Minister Tony Abbott should stand aside. 

He is the Prime Minister.  He was fairly elected.

If there is a leadership spill it undermines the entire democratic process and makes us a dictatorship.  The election is only 18 months away.  Are people really so shallow that they can't wait another 18 months?

Yes the Queensland result last night was appalling but state and federal politics are not one in the same.  At a Federal level there are different issues.

It is time people were educated and learned the difference between the two otherwise why even have state politics and councils? 

The media don't seem to understand that Prime Minister Tony Abbott was elected by the PUBLIC.  Any leadership spill would not be controlled by the public and would make us no better than North Korea or any other nation with a dictatorship.

People need to go back to school and learn what democracy is. 

This isn't it.
