I listening to the ABC podcasts called "Russia if you are listening" Covering 6-8 years leading upto and post USA elections..

I would prefer to vote for a political party which stopped making billionaires overseas funded by the exports of Australia's natural resources and follow the Norwegian (= Norway's) example...
