Total workng hours last week from 7th to 13th of May was 8, 8, 6, 8, 8, 7.5 so 45.5. Not bad. That of from 14th to 20th was 8.5, 6, 7, 7, 8, 6.5 so 43. Not bad.
The reason I've been keeping my working hours is because I've been working in more than one company. I don't want to lose sight of how long I worked in a week.

This week I will work like 8, 8, 6, 8, 8, and Saturday is off. The introduction of plot crime is waiting for us.
Basically Tory is in favour and Whig is against. However since we voters gave Tory an overwhelming majority, it is easy for them to pass the bill, although according to a poll held by some internet company, two-thirds of people are opposing to implementing this law.
Now is like a calmness before storm. Other important bills -almost all are slightly conservative are passing without opposition by Whig, and the bill will pass after all the other bills passed. This will be the new beginning of the Dark Age of Japan. I have to get out of this country soon.

seems to me like very outdated translations of the names of the political parties. for example, in the UK, the two main parties used to be called Tory and Whig. The Whigs changed their name to the Liberal Party, and are now called the Liberal Democrats. The Tories changed to the Conservatives. Lots of people still call them Tories though, although they themselves don't like this name and insist on being called Conservatives.In the USA and Canada i understand they also had Whigs and Tories, although I don't know why or when. My understanding is that in the US, these names are sometimes used to refer not to specific parties, but in the way I might use 'Left' and 'Right'. Perhaps this is why you use these terms.Two-party democracy is the same everywhere, which is how you can tell it doesn't represent the views of the people..

National Socialistic German Labourer Party- Hilter included nationalism and socialism in the name of his party. Nobody understands well what his party was representing. Socialism? Nationalism? or both?
Japan's Conservative Party is Liberal Democratic Party and Japan's Labour Party is Democratic Party, whose relationship is similar to Republican and Democratic Party in the U.S.A.
I thought sometimes the name of parties doesn't represent their political aim well, so I chose to use the term Tory and Whig.
Slightly conservative bills are rushing to pass without serious argument. Democrats are proudly claiming that they have no problem to pass these bills under the mutual consent of not forcibly having 'plot crime' passed. Liberal Democrats haven't been mentioning anything. The end of post war democracy might come soon.

Take Australia: our conservatives are called the Liberal Party, while our other major party, Labour, haven't really represented workers for years since they're only slightly to the left of the conservatives. Then we have the Democrats, who nobody votes for; One Nation, which succeeded in dividing the country on racial issues; and once we had the Nuclear Disarmament Party, in a country with no nuclear weapons.It makes as much sense as the rest of politics, I suppose.

I need to know a little bit about current racial tension in Australia so that I can judge well whether Australia is suitable for me to be the destination of possibile emigration from my country.
I spent 10 days in Sydney in October 1998, I stayed in one backpacker's inn where many foreiners' staying, who are not only Asians but Europeans too. One day we had fire-crackers thrown in our house. The crackers were lit and we had sharp sound and lots of smoke. All residents were evacuated. It turned out to be a malicious trick by some offender, of course we couldn't know who committed it but probably it was done by someone who had some racial motif.
When I had lunch in cafeteria in some department store located at the midst of city centre, I noticed some graffiti on wall of toilet that says 'Get out Asians'. It was written about 1 metre long, I mean it's not ignorable. Recently your country had a minor racial incident in Bomdi beach. How about now?
