[3×3 GRID OF DANCERS, ALL FACING UP: Center-person is the Prime Minister. Often given a symbolic hat (will be passed on to the next PM). Term Limits: You only get to be PM once! “Rows” horiz., “files” vertical.]
[Music: 64-bar reels or jigs, 3 times through. E.g The New Parliament House Jig. Reels: Rickett's Hornpipe / Lamplighter's Hornpipe.]
Right-wing; caucus: The Right 2 files take skater's hold, promenades CCW around the “far left”; the leftmost file.(16)
Left-wing; caucus: Left 2 files take skater's hold, promenades CW around the “far right”.(16)

“Moderates” (the four in the middle of an edge) “run rings” around the PM; circle-left(8) then right(8).
“Extremists” (the four corner dancers) run rings around the Prime Minister. [Left, then right.]

Lobbying: The PM makes a Right-Hand star in the front-right [NE] corner(8); then a Left-Hand star with [NW] front-left.(8) Frontbenchers, right wing, then left.
PM makes a RH-star with the back-left [SW] corner(8); then a LH-star with the [SE] back-right.(8) Backbenchers, right wing, then left.

Descend into usual Parliamentary chaos: Hey-for-3 in each file: The head dancer faces DTHall, the other two in his file face up. He starts the weave passing R-shoulders with the middle person, weaving down and back(8+8). [Each dancer ends up where he started.] Orig. has Heys along rows, rather than files. Files seem easier for the PM to get in to.
Change of Government: Front-row faces right, and puts R-hand on shoulder of person in front, in his row. Front person arcs right, around and behind the middle row [which steps fwd to become the new front] then arcs left around the back row [which becomes the new middle]. There isn't much time for this bit, so move smartly. Ok to permute psns, doing this, so everyone can be PM.

The dance represents the system of Government in Australia.
