	[Kabar-indonesia] Howard Faces Biggest Parliamentary Revolt [5 Asylum Debate Reports] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Invoking the drought, Mr Broadbent said his prayer was that rain would fill the nation's rivers and dams "so that each raindrop would form a mighty flood that is so full of compassion and justice that it would … soften the nation's heart".
		Victorian MP Russell Broadbent said he would vote against the bill because it was "not in the long-term national interests of this great southern land".
		Broadbent also spoke of the Menzies tradition of conscience and free thought, but he acknowledged that there would be some in his party who did not accept its "plural tradition".

	Star News Group - MP denies he’s a rebel - By Paul Dunlop (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		LIBERAL MP Russell Broadbent was at the centre of a political maelstrom, opposing Prime Minister John Howard on tough new immigration laws.
		Mr Broadbent and two other backbenchers last week crossed the floor to vote with Labor and oppose his government’s plan for all unauthorised boat arrivals to be processed on Nauru.
		Mr Broadbent acknowledged his stance may hurt his political career but stood defiant, echoing the words of Mexican reformer and revolutionary Emiliano Zapata “if I am to die politically it is better to die on my feet than live on my knees,” he said.

		Fonda is a confused magician's assistant on the lam.
		Sharon Stone brought Russell Crowe to Hollywood for "The Quick & the Dead" the same year this movie was made and called Crowe, "The sexiest guy working in movies today." He certainly expresses depth and a world-weary sense as Alex Ross, the somewhat burned out detective.
		A wonderful cast-- Russell Crowe is splendid, and Jim Broadbent and Kenneth Mars lend excellent support; Fonda is perhaps a bit too cool and also a bit too unsympathetic at times, but by and large does a respectable job.

		Much as I want to thank Russell for being part of the Gang of 4 I don't think he gets how distorted the whole "border protection" logic and policy is, any more than the rest of the Liberal Party.
		Border protection is supposed to be just one small part of a coherent, planned, thoughtful, humane, long-term population policy for a(ny) country.

		While it is not clear whether the dissent within the centre-right government's ranks would be enough to defeat the legislation, it creates a destabilising rift as Howard seeks re-election next year.

		The reversal was variously hailed as a "humiliating backdown" by the Federal Opposition, a victory by the Victorian Government, a vindication by the developer, regrettable by the anti-wind farm Coastal Guardians and a "real blow" by the local federal MP, Liberal Russell Broadbent.
