In my profession we didn't have unions because we didn't need them.
Foxy,
I’m not convinced, the Public Service Union would not have let librarians roam Govt facilities without getting their cut & support Labor.

Mhaze,

Inflation and high interest rates started when Labor won the election. The solution to inflation is well known, the government needs to slow spending. This is something Labor is incapable of and as a result, inflation and interest rates grew like a cancer.

How many lies does Labor need to tell before voters start noticing?

"The most dispiriting development in my 10 years in politics has been the increasing loss of trust in the political process and politicians. That’s why a lie repeated over 100 times by the Prime Minister and Treasurer – that they were sticking by the legislated stage three tax cuts – is of profound significance to every Australian.

Labor’s decision to drop the stage three tax cuts is the most egregious betrayal of trust I have seen in politics. This is from a Prime Minister who promised “My word is my bond”. Some bond. Now we know his word means nothing. Australians now know any promise from this Prime Minister is worth nothing.

The tax cuts were a centrepiece of the last two elections, one where the Coalition won supporting them, and the second where both sides of politics said they supported the legislation (although that was clearly a lie from Labor). Moreover, the Prime Minister and Treasurer voted for the cuts in parliament."

Liberal Party Hack,

Inflation and high interest rates started after the Noalition created a trillion dollars of debt.

"drop the stage three tax cuts" lie, the stage three tax cuts are still in place, they have been tweaked to give a better social and economic outcome. In fact the cost of these tax cuts goes up from $106 billion to $107 billion.

Lets hope Dud Dutton goes to the nest election promising to increase taxes for 95% of taxpayers. That should see him back in the coppers rolling cars, while doing the stations Macca's run on a Friday night! Failed copper, become a failed politician.

Dear ShadowMinister,

«Australians now know any promise from this Prime Minister is worth nothing.»

ANY Prime Minister.

Always knew.

"Inflation and high interest rates started when Labor won the election."

SM, that's simply untrue. Both were rising before the election. Both were caused by decisions of the Liberal government, fully supported by the ALP opposition. This is all down to the Uni-party policies, particularly the bipartisan lockdown policies.

And neither party has any idea how to solve it....or rather they both know how to solve it but both know that the solutions are so politically untenable that neither will propose them. Instead they'll both fiddle at the edges with inane policies and pretend this constitutes genuine disagreement.

"Inflation and high interest rates started after the Noalition created a trillion dollars of debt."

That's completely untrue. The debt never got to Trillion dollars and even if it did, it was a from high base already built by the Rudd/Gillard/Rudd clown show. The debt was built due to the policies surrounding the lockdowns which neither the ALP nor, as I recall, Paul opposed. Indeed the ALP was calling for more lockdowns and higher spending. In fact in places where the ALP held sway (eg the People's Republic of Victoria) spending was indeed greater and the debt per capita is higher than the Federal debt.
