Oz V. US

A new study looks at Australian Labour Party attitudes to the USA:

One in five Labor Party candidates at the last federal election believed the United States was a threat to Australian security...

When asked in the study about US President George Bush, 91.5 per cent of Labor candidates said they disliked him.

The Labour Party is likely to get a public hammering for this, but the fact is that their views are really not so out of touch with the Australian public as our pro-Bush PM's.
