The Ball Keeps Rolling

I'm not one who understands or has the patience for politics. People who argue and state things that they may not actually agree with yet feel the need to state in order to keep favour with the general public are not worth the air they breath in my view. I am well aware of the need for politicians in our society but throughout my time I have had dealings with several over multiple issues in the past and have not once had one come forward with the goods promised. I was pleasantly surprised when the link to this video arrived in my in box. It was titled

"Last night, at 9:15pm, the Act to End Poverty was moved through the House of Representatives!"

Of the hundreds of politicians the road trip came in contact with three seem to have the courage and voiced up for our cause. The video is the three politicians moving the motion (i believe that's the correct terminology) through the house of representatives. After these three finished speaking the motion was passed. The motion has now passed in both houses of parliament. Whilst this does not equal the completion of the campaign it was such a massive steeping stone. Its difficult to lay out in words my feelings right now but as Vishal Sood said to me last night.

"I was an active member in a campaign that was passed through both houses of parliament"

That's got to be worth some form of bragging rights.
