Rewroted section on Australia. The Senate didn't actually vote against supply, they refused to vote on the subject.

Thanks for clarifying that. JTD 02:48 Jan 4, 2003 (UTC)

Supply has a capital letter because it is a formal constitutional term in a definition. Supply with a small 's' means something different. A 'Motion of Confidence', for example, would also have capitals, as a formal term. JTD 22:52 Jan 4, 2003 (UTC)

"In the wake of World War II, in Japan" I wrote but I am not sure about the details. Sorry for confusing. Taku 01:18 Jan 5, 2003 (UTC)

No problem, Tak. I look forward to reading the full info when you have it. JTD 02:02 Jan 5, 2003 (UTC)

Is this vandalism or just poorly worded?[edit]

I just removed the following from the article:

Fierce opposition to Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott's controversial 2014 Australian federal budget resulted in supply blocked by a hostile Senate composed of a large number of crossbench senators, including members of the Australian Greens and Palmer United Party who rejected several spending measures of the budget twice, causing a trigger for Abbott to call for the dissolution of Parliament. Senator Nick Xenophon described the budget as "mean, nasty and dumb".^[1] Independent MP Andrew Wilkie implored the opposition and crossbench MPs to go so far as to block supply in his opposition to the budget.^[2]

Obviously the Senate didn't actually block supply, so if its not vandalism what's it trying to say? Colonial Overlord (talk) 15:22, 2 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
