If you don't like the Liberals you should've voted more wisely on Election Day. Election Day is the day when people have their say.

Prior to the 2013 election Australian politics was filled with instability.  In 2010 Julia Gillard successfully ousted then Prime Minister Kevin Rudd from the top job.  Then in 2013 another leadership spill took place and Rudd regained the top job until the September election.  At the September election, Tony Abbott was elected Prime Minister and Labor was ousted.

Before the 2013 election, the Liberals were unstable having been through two leaders - Brendan Nelson and Malcolm Turnbull before the caucus elected Tony Abbott for the party leadership.

The media is now having a field day with undemocratic commentary.

People vote in elections.  Elections are held every three years.  If you're not happy with the Prime Minister THAT is when you are able to voice your frustrations and THAT is when you can vote out any Prime Minister you do not like.

If people didn't want Tony Abbott to be Prime Minister then simply, that was what they should have voted against on September 14 in 2014.  Election Day is when people have their say on how the country is run.  Or during the political term by joining a political party.  It is not midway through a term and it is not the months before an election.

If people didn't truly want a Liberal Government and aren't happy with policies they're introducing they shouldn't have voted Liberal.  They should have actively engaged more.

If there is a leadership spill then it undermines the entire democratic process.  It says "hey, we don't care what you voted for on Election Day" and worse, it makes us a dictatorship.

A leadership spill mid term does not give people the chance to say whether or not they are happy with the Government and a leadership spill does not constitute democracy.  Why have elections if we're just going to have in party fighting?

If people can't understand why we have elections and can't understand the democratic process which Tony Abbott was elected under then as a nation we have major issues getting people engaged and we need to look more at political participation.

It is not up to the mainstream media to try and create political divisions and undermine democracy.  Do we here in Australia really want to be like the Eastern countries we condemn for not allowing democracy?  What's to say the public don't like Tony Abbott?  I've spoken to people and the majority of them are unimpressed with the media.

How hard is it to wait another 18 months for the next election to have your say?  That is why we have elections, so that if you're not happy you can make a difference.  If you're not happy with what the Government is doing then write to your local MP or a Minister.  It's what I do when I'm not happy (but that's because I can't yet vote as I've discussed in previous blogs).

How are we supposed to be taken seriously on the world stage when the media are trying to undermine democracy?  We have elections.  It's time people remembered what elections are for!  Once every three years people have their say, not once ever 10 months.

According to polls Abbott isn't popular but remember, he was elected fairly and legally on election day.  Malcolm Turnbull and Julie Bishop were not elected as Prime Minister.  Tony Abbott was.
