Reality show?

What's going on?

The Australian media keep spruiking talk of a leadership challenge to the PM based entirely on reports from the Opposition.

There is turmoil on the global markets, where in Europe, Merkel and Sarkozy are  engaged in a grim danse macabre and in the USA dysfunctional politics threatens to tip their country into recession.  A case of politicians turning difficult economic conditions into catastrophe.

Meanwhile our politicians are obsessed with a manufactured 'crisis' about a small number of asylum-seekers  coming here by boat. This hokey-pokey is just part of

                 the growing tendency on both sides of politics to put the Left
                 policy in, and take the Right policy out, the Left policy in until
                 voters shake us all about. Then do a quick opinion poll and
                 turn around, and that’s what it’s all about!  See here
