'Rats In The Ranks' - Worth a watch.
Rats In The Ranks -
"Every September Sydney's Leichhardt Council elects its mayor. Incumbent Larry Hand is popular with the citizenry but they don't vote for mayor – the 12 councillors do – and after three years of Larry, some of them are after his job." - ABC TV."Ambition, courage, envy, betrayal, disaster, triumph... In other words, a classic study of politics.Politics is a bruising business. The best policies in the world mean nothing unless you've got the numbers. Rats In The Ranks takes a behind-locked-doors look at how politicians get the numbers.Rats In The Ranks screened at many film festivals and has won numerous awards, including the Silver Plaque for Social/Political Documentary at the Chicago International Film Festival in 1996, the Critic's Choice Award for Documentary at the Sydney Film Festival that same year and the Logie Award for most outstanding documentary in 1998." - ABC TV.

"It is true that you may fool all of the people some of the time;
you can even fool some of the people all of the time;
but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time." - Abraham Lincoln.
