Belly, "NO chance NONE the NBN will not be put in place"

Lets see:
A social engineering project costed on figures from when the GFC was in place, with technicians that are no longer freely (or cheaply) available, with additional costs and requirements added by the independents, and with a costing system that people in the cities are unlikely to take up.

TA was right this is the BER on crack.

I think the electorates of TW and RO would be seriously unhappy if anyone tried to count their votes as 2pp for Labor.

Shadow that is just silly, surely you know that?
Barbed insults are just words.
You yes bloke you would be singing the praises of these two if they went with you.
Yet they are not part of your team nore are they conservatives.
Their electorates put them not your lost tribe in place.
A few seats did not get included in the 2PP only those votes for you or my mob would be counted surely in these seats.
Silly claims from you include 50% of Australian voters turned on Labor.
You claimed the National party as part of the Liberals.
I think you claimed Katter to be both foolish and a hero in recent weeks.
you did claim him as one of yours.
You requested independents vote with you while claiming to have won 2pp.
Then said it does not matter? on finding out the ALP got it not you.
Julie Bishop or Christopher Pyne could not beat your blind rhetoric
COP IT SWEET second spot is as close as you can get and get used to it your party is in the hands of the Australian version of Americas tea party.

Belly,

I love the way you can continue to crow even when Labor has been given the biggest hiding in 50 years and is so battered that it can no longer even govern on its own.

The Shrew even admitted so yesterday to quote "KEY government promises made before the election no longer necessarily apply" because she will have to make so many compromises with the independents that policy will be made up along the way.

She will be held to account for the promises she made, and they, along with the feeble first term performance will be Labor's legacy.

As for you Belly, as in true Labor tradition virtually nothing you said has come to pass, and you have the credibility of gambler crowing that whilst he has lost his shirt, at least he has kept his pants.

SM wrote, "Labor has been given it's biggest hiding in 50 years".

HA HA HA HA HA HA.

Here's the "truth", from the "official" Electoral Commission results:

Labor primary vote 37.99%
Liberal primary vote 30.46%

Labor + Greens primary vote 49.75%
Liberal + NLP + Nationals primary vote 43.31%

Labor 2 party preferred vote 50.12%
Lib/Nat coalition 2 party preferred vote 49.88%

Election result:
Labor won
Libs lost

Now Shadow Minister, I've made 6 separate statements reagading percentage results and 2 separate statements regarding the actual election result. Eight statements in all. All 100% mathematically and factually correct.

EVERY one of those 8 statements show conclusively that the Libs LOST.

So if this Liberal LOSS is "Labors biggest hiding in 50 years", one has to wonder which planet you inhabit.

Thanks for your support jockey.
No joke I backed a horse called,, yes true Shadow Minister in Sydney today.
Have been on it every start this time up it has the form, about 5 2nd places two failures today was the second flop.
Our Shadow has form, but not enough to back him/her.
I'm baffled every time a post like that last of SM appears can it be this poster believes that rot? surely not!
I know nothing about politics SM said so but watch this space Australia will not elect Abbott ever.
Voters gave Labor a flogging but its up from here.
Confrontation turns people off wait for polling a week after our first sitting of Parliament.
SM if you own your namesake give it a rest spell it too good a horse to kill.
Get on run for Nara its next few starts.

Jockey,

To make a mistake once is ignorance. To repeat it is stupidity.

The liberal party, the LNP, the CLP are actually branches of the same party. The nationals and Liberals have an agreed alliance, the greens and Labor do not.

Regurgitating the same drivel proves a point, but not the one you are going for, and puts you in the category with runner.
