You are incorrect and wrong. The common law is judge-made law in Australia, which is law established on centuries of wisdom beginning in Great Britain with the Norman Conquest. Unlike the Civil Law countries of Europe which codify their legislation, the legislative enactments by parliaments in Australia can be seen to modify the common law. I mean, that's not even my question, but you're right about one thing -- if the electorate don't like a new law they will attempt to vote the mob out for enacting it, lol.
