Change of Leadership

[MusicMan]

Australia has had a change of leaders.
Tony Abbott has been replaced as Prime Minister by Malcolm Turnbull, in a Liberal Party vote.
It remains to be seen how effective this 29th Prime Ministership will be.

As far as I read Turnbull sounds more liberal, but I must admit that I'm not holding my breath, since the saying goes: Meet The New Boss, Same As The Old Boss. But as you wrote, lets wait and see and what he really does in the end.

Turnbull is also a Goldman Sachs man, I read. So, yeah, not expecting anything better than Abbott.

Not to down-play Australia's position but the U.S. is desperately in need of a change in Leadership? I've noticed this "habit" our President mindlessly displays, in at least two news clips, in the past and I just came upon a back dated article that has photo's of this same trait.

Absolutely.. Only time will tell, there is a chance that his pulling out the planes could have an ulterior motive as well. Lets hope its a positive not negative.
