Peter, it works like this. There is no secret ballot, one of the things that Kevin was wanting to change. All the votes happen in one room where everyone is together with the heavies standing by the exits keeping an eye on the proceedings and giving the evil eye to those who are suspected of not voting the right way. When it is finished they wash the blood from the walls and floor.
Now I see why OZ is so good at Rugby. By the way, don't the PEOPLE have a say in all 'this'...or are they only spectators in the 'rugby' scrum? Good luck in getting a democracy some day.....I know we don't have one in my country either. The various forms of 'representative democracy' the elites have figured out are all constructed to give them near total power and the People all but none!
