Upper house is a lot different and interesting; the government does NOT have control, with a miserable 14 of 40 seats! LIBS/Nats have 16..... Shooters 2!! interesting times for shooters in Vic, lets make hay!!! cause the government is going to want everyone on their side or they wont be passing jack sh-ite in Vic for the next term!
