Accidents do happen, if you let them : Comments

By Graham Young, published 3/2/2015

If Annastacia Palaszczuk becomes premier of Queensland, it will be a colossal accident, but one engineered by the ALP and facilitated by the LNP.

Suse,

There's "no way" Abbott is going to take the Libs to the election.

In fact, I think as this evening unfolds we'll find that it is "on".

Suseonline and Poirot I agree.
And after the Rudd/Gillard show it's our turn to gloat!

Just another of the things the LNP is going to have to revise is climate change policy, an issue on which they have no credibility under Abbott. Switching to Turnbull is the only way to change their politically disastrous policies.
Not just Abbott but Hockey and others also have to go. Bloody hypocrites; it's only those who have something to lose, his partners in crime, who have been feebly supporting Abbott.

Bring it on! It's grand entertainment : ))

It does not matter which party comes to power as the result will be the same.

Back in the 1970's we went off the gold standard and Henry Kissinger came up with the idea of the US $ being backed by oil. Hence the dominance of the US petro dollar. This was the inception of fiat currency created by private banks without shackles. The result has been inflation that requires the debt money creation system to create exponentially more money in the present,to pay for the debt of the past.

This system is now reaching its climax of total collapse. It is like using one credit card to pay off the last one.

Squeers, Suse, that is exactly where you are wrong. Turnbull is a dirty word to many Liberal supporters.

I think & hope the Liberals realise this, but the conservative voters are smart enough to realise the global warming scam is a UN/lefty/academic scam to destroy western peasant wealth.

We saw Turnbull as a full traitor when he backed Rudd in his attempt to get a full global trading scheme up & running. It is a pity he did not have the decency to resign, but he is that type of course.

Nothing on earth would get a very large proportion of conservative voters to vote for a party he lead. Bishop could have the same trouble if she started sprouting her global warming leanings. Any Liberal leader, who can not see through the scam, & communicate that fact, would lose an enormous level of support.

I really do wish you would claim him & take him in. With Labor's lack of talent, we would be a real asset, & the conservatives would be well rid of the fool.

Hasbeen, you are wrong.
Abbott's refusal to believe the global warming/climate change science was not even a vague reason why he and the Liberals were elected , it was merely because of the mess the Labour Party were in at the time.

There is absolutely no doubt that climates change, nor that this past year was the hottest on record. Only a fool would refuse to believe the statistics.

Abbotts refusal to believe in climate change is only one of his many 'problems', but it is by no means his worst one at the moment.....

My take on the matter, Graham Young, is that there must be a lot of Greeks moving to Queensland.

The usual pattern of Lib/Lab governments, is that Labor gets in and spends and spends, borrows and spends, borrows and spends, and all to buy the votes of the welfare dependent and the public service. The Libs get in and repair the damage through austerity measures, and the pattern repeats itself add infinitum.

But if Greece is anything to go by, that model may now be in danger. People don't like austerity measures by responsible governments, so any party promising prosperity by decree can still win office. The party promising prosperity by decree can hardly spend the money it hasn't got, and it can't borrow it, so it is only a matter of time before the electorate realise that they did a really dumb thing.

I think that Queenslanders will soon figure out how stupid they were, but I am not to sure about the Greeks. The behaviour of the Greeks towards the international banking community that is keeping them soluble reminds me of the old "Blazing Saddles" movie lynch scene, where the black guy sticks a gun to his head and declares "Get back, or the niigger gets it!"
