Heh, now you know how we feel in Australia. We have jokes about changing the smoke detector battery every time the Prime minister changes. Feels like it has been a while since one finished out their term.

I mean on the one hand yes, and on the other I do feel that "we have no idea yet! whether we're leaving the EU! on the 21st of March! on WTO terms! so they decided NOW was the time to try to stab the negotiation leader in the back!" adds a certain... frisson to the experience. :-p

Well, of course, you wouldn't want to cause a ruckus when things are going well.

The last Australian Prime Minister to serve out their elected term was John Howard.

Now I feel old and cranky.
