'Excused from the services of the house' means you lose your seat indefinitely, the ayes have it, what the hell does that have to do with ringing bells?
@LordAkira only the house of reps is for over 18s, the kindergarten down the road accommodates ages 1-4 years. I say we swap them around, put the 4 year olds in Parliament, and the Opposition and Government in the kindergarten down the road and see what the 4 year olds make of government.
Good old Wilson Turkey.... uh..... Tuckey...... typically acting like the hormone fueled juvenile he always is.... he can't help but disrupt the class....
i think it's relevant that it's only the opposition party and not the governing party which was elected on the back of Rudd's popularity within the mandate. That and Turnbull's replacement wasn't a stab in the back but a clear policy disagreement which the party confronted him with. And I much preferred Turnbull to Abbott but I still respect Abbott because at the very least he's honest and not afraid of holding unpopular beliefs
their parliament is a joke in comparison to the UK. the speaker just makes everything worse by speaking over ministers and kicking everyone out. It's amazing how bad it is really!
it's a bit different when they were only replacing the opposition leader who in Nelson's case was a dud who they never intended to keep until the election and Turnbull whose policies were unpopular with the majority of his party. Labor ousted Rudd without warning when he was the elected PM of Australia for no apparent other than that they thought they could win by doing so. Which they fucked up anyway
@ilikevines I could say the same about Turnbull and Nelson and then Abbott and Turnbull ans it is Malcolm is still removing the knives from his back the Tony firmly placed in there
What the hell? Why do they need a vote to chuck some old wanker out? It's this kind of officiousness and pomposity that's made the Australian parliament so disinteresting.
I thought the British House of Commons was unruly. Damn, lol. Actually, I kinda wish the US Congress debates were more like this, the US house sessions are so damn boring, and overly ass-kissing. These politicians need to face more opposition once in a while.
@KillerKoala56 Kevin Rudd = one of the best PM's in Australian history that goes wrongly unrecognised for his great achievements in his extremely short term.
Why do you ozzies call it the House of Representatives. Why not the Commons like back in the UK or in Canada. Just sounds a bit American to me. But thats probably just my bias because i think the Westminster system is better.
@SuperGareth007 this is the Westminster system its just had a few changes in Australia. For example Australia is structured like a Federal Republic like the US but follows the basic principles of the Westminster system that we inherited from you.
@SuperGareth007Because the terms House of "Lords" and House of "Commons" is inherently offensive to an instinctively egalitarian society like Australia.
You really think the unelected House of Lords is the pinnacle of parliamentary documentary? Inbred, aged peers snoring in the corners or justifying having their moats cleaned at taxpayers expense? Muslims who arrived yesterday and handed their red robes on the same day because of rampant political correctness.
Ahhh yes, "fuelwatch" you can add that to "grocerywatch", "home insulation" (watch all those house fires and DEATHS), ETS ("the moral Issue of our time" LOL - which vanished overnight) and over priced School Halls to the looonngg list of FAILED Rudd govt programs - a govt so TOXIC, Rudd's OWN CO-MEMBERS, dumped him in LESS THAN ONE TERM in the PM's job LOLOL - I'd bet Tuckey and alot of other people in and outside the House were up in arms! How many BILLION$ did the Rudd years flush away????
@mrsgritoli1 He lost his seat because hes division changed due to the abolished seat of Kalgoorlie... he got about 1.5x more area in his seat.. significantly changing the voters in the area
Woah Your Speakers are so Pathetic...I think it is about time they Showed there Authority in that House. He just sat there saying.. .... Member is Warned..Ha Ha Ha.
If Tuckey really wanted to he could become an independent as he normally has his own views and doersn't really follow whay his own party says! No point arguing with Wilson, he'll argue for 24 hours straight if need being!
Wow, what a heart-touching speech. As a keen motorist, I couldn't have agreed with Tuckey's words more. I believe this man has what it takes to take on a nation - lead Australia towards motorist-freedom and develop further intimate bilateral relations with other nations that heavily rely on motorists to support their economy, like India and China. Such heart-warming words of wisdom there, always brings a tear to my eye.
This man will surely promise Australia good days to come.
Can somebody tell me what the difference is between being warned, named, and kicked out under 94a? can u skip being warned and named and just get kicked out ?
@bmorant1902 well the speaker can kick u if ur being annoying or disprtuive in the house so under order 94a standing u can be kicked for being warned several times
Wilson is an honest man which you will never find in union leaders and labor party members. You know, ive been around the world ok people, and AUstralia is by far the best country in the world. Try going anywhere else and have this standard of living.
mate wilson is an embarrassment to the liberal party. I am a member of the liberal party and he has caused the party far more harm than good. he was one of the ringleaders who got rid of howard in the 80s and was actually stupid enough to boast about it on tv, foregrounding divisions in the party to the public. he has no loyalty to the party and was so dishonest he used his position as minister to try get his son off a ticket.
@BornskiAECC another bleeding heart ! there has never been a country in the history of the world that has gone through some form of hardship during the 19th century. get over it. affirmative action has failed and is a waste of money that has been spent on people who have no understanding of a modern society. go live with them ...

Idolsofwood...you calling Tuckey is a moronic imbecile.......well.....his been there over 30 years is Canberra, ruffled many feathers and obviously has no intentions of leaving soon!
Oh, by the way, "you calling Tuckey is a moronic imbecile" makes no sense. It should be "he's been" not "his been". You need to take out the random "is" between "years" and "Canberra". Oh, and one question mark gets the point across. No need to add 4 other superfluous ones. Just some tips.
"his been there over 30 years is Canberra, ruffled many feathers"
he's been there for 30 years and he's been one of the most destablising forces in the liberal party. he doesnt give a shit about the group, if there's something he wants then he does it. he undermined howard in the 80s, was stupid enough to boast about it on tv, and misused his position as minister which is called CORRUPTION. i support the liberal party, and part of that involves getting fuckwits like him out of it.
if by trouble maker you mean someone who consistently puts his own selfish wants and desires before the good of the liberal party than yes.
remember when the whole story blew up about him using his ministerial office to try and get his son off a fine? corruption in a minister reflects badly on everyone in the party, and it shows what kind of a selfish fool he is and how little he cared for his colleagues. he would have know that if it was discovered it would tarnish the whole government.
August 2003. remember the footage of abbott saying how he had embarrassed himself and his colleagues but had not lost their support - that is what being in a party is supposed to be about - caring about the people who support you and you agree with. not risking their reputations and the whole government just because you are selfish enough to try to use your ministerial position to get your son off a traffic fine.
@AussiePolitics ......sort of remember some of it, sounds like Tuckey has a few people by the balls, if a number of the party think like you do. Well why is he still there!
Sounds like Tuckey has a hold over some party members, well thats what I'm perceiving!
because the liberal party is not like labor - it lacks the power to interfere in individual electrate preselections.
tuckey as a few people by the balls? you mean he doesn't care how much he drags the liberal party name through the dirt so long as he gets what he wants. he's nothing more than a dishonest, corrupt criminal who is an embarrassment to the party.
that said mate, even though I don't particularly like tuckey for what he's done to the libs I do find him thoroughly amusing and he is one of the few politicians who makes parliament enjoyable to watch occasionally.
on the positive side i think he's extremely intelligent and could be a real asset to the party in ragards to policy (especially economic) development. furthermore in an electorate with such a high green vote as wentworth he was probably the libs best shot of holding the seat.
on the other hand having him on board is going to be destabilising for the leadership of the party because really he's in it for the leadership.
@AussiePolitics, to be honest, I never did like Turnbull, there was always something untrustworthy about him. Him supporting the ETS confirmed my suspicions, he was a bad Liberal leader, the longer he stays in the party, the more damage he will do, (and thats exactly what he wants to do 'NOW').
Concerning the ETS, Turnbull was using his political position for his own personal financial, his personal wealth would have sky rockered.
He didn't decide it there, He tried to force a division, which is a formal vote, calling all MPs in out of the lobbies, which is why he said, "Division required, Ring the bells"
He didn't decide it there, He tried to force a division, which is a formal vote, calling all MPs in out of the lobbies, which is why he said, "Division required, Ring the bells"
If a matter can't be resolved by oral vote, a division is required.
Wilson Tuckey is probably the only guy with guts in that room!
So WHERE IS FUEL WATCH? WHERE IS GROCERY WATCH? I think Tuckey is right and all you ppl that criticized him better think where has these 2 stupid 'watch' thingies went? labor con jobs.
...Bob Hawke, John Hewson, Peter Costello and the king himself Paul Keating used to go around. Mate back then an exchange like this was almost considered good manners. Those blokes had WARS, to the point when it was only parliamentary privilege that saved them from defamation lawsuits. Those days saw the mastery of politics, where belittlement and insult were used without fear. How boring Australian politics has become indeed.
Fireworks?? You call that fireworks?? A senile old racist like Wilson Tuckey being kicked out with a few raised voices thrown in?? I tell you what if that qualifies as fireworks than the Australian Parliament has gone very soft indeed. There are no more characters in Parliament, no more knock em down drag em out battles. Everyone is so concerned about maintaining a perfect image that Parliament is now a domain for the painfully bland. Think back to the late 80s and early 90s with the likes of...
Great video by the way but maybe someone can answer a question for me? When trouble erupts in the House, why do the cameras always focus on the Speaker and never a glimpse of the trouble maker?? There may not be a reason, just curious is all.
That is a good question. A clue to the answer lies in the fact nobody is allowed to bring cameras (or indeed any electronic equipment) into the Chamber when Parliament is sitting. The Press have special permission and passes to bring their cameras into the Chamber.
Television and radio broadcasts of sittings are broadcast by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, while sittings and official meetings can also be watched live through the Australian Parliament House's official web site
@CanberraUser Its actually in the contract, that the TV company have with the Parliament. You you watch the documentary, about filiming in the House of Commons, they especially highlight that area of the contract.
NI...Do you mean Ulster? Thats what its proper name is. Originates from the Plantation of Ulster. But i suppose one would be too uneducated to know such a fact.
It is just a quick way to say northern Ireland (I was reffering to the six counties!). I know it is called Ulster. It is one of the 4 provinces of Ireland (our land, not the Brit's) which are Munster (my home province) Leinster, Connaght and Ulster (your one)
Congratulations, 6 of the 32 counties make up Ulster. I have family in County Carlow, which I think is in Munster, you may have to correct me there. And I am a Unionist so I shall have to beg to differ with you on ownership of Ulster. I dont wish to enter conflict, we have had so much over the years but being a Unionist I naturally support the rule of the Crown over Ulster, but I am glad the Dail have some say, afterall my family all come from Eire. And its good we have soem say.
Tuckey's the court jester. People aren't laughing with him, but at him. His generation have had their day and younger people are starting to lead. Howard's gone, 70-year-old McCain lost to Obama in the US. Time for Baby Boomers to retire and leave it to Generation X to clean up their mess.
Whatever your views on the generational change (which I agree with, btw), it is simply not fair to lump the baby boomers in with such an insidious person as wilson tuckey. the man has all the mannerisms of a dog, except loyalty. howard never stood with him, nor would any modern leader.
I know both parties do it when they're in opposition but it does annoy me when opposition insists on divisions they can't win. Labor had the numbers, coalition knew it yet they waste time on a divison, same thing happened in 07 when Tanner was named, Coalition had the numbers but labor insisted on a division anyway, wasting time. If you can't win the vote let it go unless it's a symbolic thing.
NO, that's not the sports minster Kate Ellis... she sits on the front bench. I think it's Kate Collins member for Bass in Tasmania. In addition, this guy is the best speaker in a very long time. You notice that the government places it's best looking members behind the boxes so that they;re seen on the coverage.
ok, so let me get this straight.

I heard the "NO" is louder? How does the speaker actually makes his decision?
gerjaison 2 years ago
He didn't decide it there, He tried to force a division, which is a formal vote, calling all MPs in out of the lobbies, which is why he said, "Division required, Ring the bells"

If a matter can't be resolved by oral vote, a division is required.

Fuel watch was a fucking waste.
Never implemented properly, never worked, and...there was no watching fuel in my area, hence such a service seemed ENTIRELY POINTLESS.

So WHERE IS FUEL WATCH? WHERE IS GROCERY WATCH? I think Tuckey is right and all you ppl that criticized him better think where has these 2 stupid 'watch' thingies went? labor con jobs.

...Bob Hawke, John Hewson, Peter Costello and the king himself Paul Keating used to go around. Mate back then an exchange like this was almost considered good manners. Those blokes had WARS, to the point when it was only parliamentary privilege that saved them from defamation lawsuits. Those days saw the mastery of politics, where belittlement and insult were used without fear. How boring Australian politics has become indeed.

Fireworks?? You call that fireworks?? A senile old racist like Wilson Tuckey being kicked out with a few raised voices thrown in?? I tell you what if that qualifies as fireworks than the Australian Parliament has gone very soft indeed. There are no more characters in Parliament, no more knock em down drag em out battles. Everyone is so concerned about maintaining a perfect image that Parliament is now a domain for the painfully bland. Think back to the late 80s and early 90s with the likes of...

Great video by the way but maybe someone can answer a question for me? When trouble erupts in the House, why do the cameras always focus on the Speaker and never a glimpse of the trouble maker?? There may not be a reason, just curious is all.
bathroomdealer 2 years ago 2
That is a good question. A clue to the answer lies in the fact nobody is allowed to bring cameras (or indeed any electronic equipment) into the Chamber when Parliament is sitting. The Press have special permission and passes to bring their cameras into the Chamber.
CanberraUser 2 years ago
Thanks for that. So there isn't a National broadcaster like the BBC covering every sitting of Parliament? Just individual reporters?
bathroomdealer 2 years ago 2
Television and radio broadcasts of sittings are broadcast by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, while sittings and official meetings can also be watched live through the Australian Parliament House's official web site

@CanberraUser Its actually in the contract, that the TV company have with the Parliament. You you watch the documentary, about filiming in the House of Commons, they especially highlight that area of the contract.

NI...Do you mean Ulster? Thats what its proper name is. Originates from the Plantation of Ulster. But i suppose one would be too uneducated to know such a fact.
UlsterBankPLC 3 years ago
It is just a quick way to say northern Ireland (I was reffering to the six counties!). I know it is called Ulster. It is one of the 4 provinces of Ireland (our land, not the Brit's) which are Munster (my home province) Leinster, Connaght and Ulster (your one)
theRod1995 3 years ago
Congratulations, 6 of the 32 counties make up Ulster. I have family in County Carlow, which I think is in Munster, you may have to correct me there. And I am a Unionist so I shall have to beg to differ with you on ownership of Ulster. I dont wish to enter conflict, we have had so much over the years but being a Unionist I naturally support the rule of the Crown over Ulster, but I am glad the Dail have some say, afterall my family all come from Eire. And its good we have soem say.

Tuckey's the court jester. People aren't laughing with him, but at him. His generation have had their day and younger people are starting to lead. Howard's gone, 70-year-old McCain lost to Obama in the US. Time for Baby Boomers to retire and leave it to Generation X to clean up their mess.

Whatever your views on the generational change (which I agree with, btw), it is simply not fair to lump the baby boomers in with such an insidious person as wilson tuckey. the man has all the mannerisms of a dog, except loyalty. howard never stood with him, nor would any modern leader.

I know both parties do it when they're in opposition but it does annoy me when opposition insists on divisions they can't win. Labor had the numbers, coalition knew it yet they waste time on a divison, same thing happened in 07 when Tanner was named, Coalition had the numbers but labor insisted on a division anyway, wasting time. If you can't win the vote let it go unless it's a symbolic thing.

NO, that's not the sports minster Kate Ellis... she sits on the front bench. I think it's Kate Collins member for Bass in Tasmania. In addition, this guy is the best speaker in a very long time. You notice that the government places it's best looking members behind the boxes so that they;re seen on the coverage.
