Colleague: What does 'Commonwealth Government' mean?
Me: The national government.
Colleague: Oh yes, the central government. [points to a box that shows 'Voters (the public)' have an influence on decision-making] What does this mean?

Me: Voters, you know, people who vote for the Government. The population.
Colleague: Oh right! Yes that is important for other countries. We do not have to worry about that here.
