The new Senate which includes a real handful of absolute whackos is diluting the power of the current budget in the name of self-interest and flawed ideology.

Trust the people Mr Abbott, call an immediate election and test the resolve of the electorate.
Not to do so would simply erode whatever authority you have and further reduce the standing of both houses of parliament to that of junk status. There may be a few casualties along the way but you and your party’s integrity would not be one of them.
Believe me the massive mandate you received at the last election was because of the lack of integrity shown by your opponents, please do not let us down.
