So, I got home last night and realised the use of the term "bloodless coup" in a news article was actually accurate, and not some journalist sensationalising the events.
Australia actually had a bloodless coup yesterday.
We've never had a coup before - of any kind. We've also never had a female prime minister. This is also the first time since 1975 an elected prime minister hasn't finished his first term in office without, you know, dying.
This is is probably going to be up there with the most interesting things to happen in Australian politics - right along with Holt's disappearance and Whitlam's dismissal.
Strange days indeed
