Title: Should Australia Have a PM That Doesn't Know Any AC/DC Songs?
Post by: Zzzptm on August 22, 2018, 07:52:13 PM: "Australian politician Peter Dutton failed to name a single AC/DC song during a radio interview."

Hells Bells, I'm sure he could have thought of at least one!

Shambolic!

And the answer to your question is NO. Same goes for anyone that want to migrate here.

Traditionally by popular vote, but 3 out of or last 4 Prime Ministers have been elected by a party ballot i.e. leadership spill. About to have another one tomorrow.

That's odd, seems like there is not specific rules established, i.e. term length, who votes and so on.
