Keep it up, that is exactly what is needed for Howard to lose the next election. If unemployment was measured the same as it was under Hawke it would show an unemployment rate now of 9.8%
Highest interest rates? They were highest when Howard was treasurer. If they rise tomorrow Howard is is deeper poo.
What about shifting Govt debt to private debt? Do you realise the interest payments on private debt are $500 million per week. Remember it was the current account deficit that Keating was talking about in his banana republic speech.
20% of the worlds bulk coal ships are sitting off our ports because our Govt. has dropped the ball on infrastucture.
In the last week of parliament the govt. had one and a half hours of govt business. Disgracefull
And just what is the "unfinished business" in the work choices legislation?
Sorry this tired, dull, vindictive Govt. has finally run out of steam.
