SM,

Evidence please?

Simply repeating the same message over and over
again, keeping it short and simple - does not make it
so. It only makes it propaganda. Where is your
evidence that so many people support the Liberal Party?
things are changing, the press is questioning
Mr Abbott stance on many issues, he's not got the support
of many truckies (very few turned up for the Canberra
drive) butcher-shop owners didn't want him in their
shops, and BTW he did loose the last election. Despite
his attempts at tryiing to convince the Independents
to go with him and his party.

Nobody but you seems to believe your
party's rhetoric anymore. And what's all this rubbish
about your not belonging to any party? You've made it
quite clear that you're a Liberal Party supporter from
way back. TRTL has summed you up beautifully.

Lexi,

I would appear to have support from Newspoll, Galaxy polling, Essential research etc.

Where is the evidence for your claims?

Well, well, well,

It looks as though the Health services union has been shamed into action, and are finally going to refer Thomson to the police.

I guess complaints from their members has trumped loyalty to Labor.

Lexi when I review the activism I have witnessed in Australia over the past thirty years it was almost exclusively generated by the Left, be it union, lobby, or community based groups the Left orchestrated them all, I marched in many anti Viet moratoriums to keep me at home, I have tracked to desolate places to support our environment, I have attended meetings or gatherings focused on changing the existing laws on various matters and all have been Left agendas.

Lexi the protests from the "common pleb" as opposed to the activist speaks volumes, Aussies have never got off their behinds as they have now and made an effort to convey their dismay over a government or legislation since the grand Eureka stockade bitch. I speak to professions, I speak to management and I speak to working plebs five days a week and even though the polls reflection that 28% of individuals support the Gillard Labor government, it is not evident among them.

So I can only extrapolate that the majority of the 28% are not in the business or work environment. So my appraisal of the Labor support base would segment into the unemployed citizen and unemployed migrants, the stay at home benefits recipients, and a load of Belly’s and ideologues looking for a cause.

Selective reporting from the free to air stations is expected as a payback to Labor for dropping license fees. The first Rally in Canberra was reported in the hundreds, but there were thousands, the second rally was reported as a thousand but there were four thousand and the convoy was dispersed so as to minimize the impact as well. The reporting was stage managed to minimize the impact but everybody except yourself and ideologues know we the majority have had enough, enough failure, enough lies, and enough debt for us and our kids.

Lexi "butcher-shop owners didn't want him in their shops" not enough detail to be certain what's true but the reporting of the detail is all pretty similar to this

'"This was a long pre-arranged visit (to the shop in the Canberra suburb of Dickson) but once a media alert went out the business in question received an aggressive phone call, as I understand it," Mr Abbott said.' http://news.ninemsn.com.au/national/8286490/swan-is-a-mug-with-carbon-tax-mp - I've not heard any contradiction of that story.

If true then on the face of it it's about a butcher deciding that the risks to his or herself or the business from Abbott's opponents just wasn't worth it. Stand over tactics.

Dear RObert,

I received my information from the following source:

http://www.news.com.au/national/tony-abbotts-meat-and-greet-goes-off/story-e6frfkvr-1226116733049

Perhaps the butcher decided that Mr Abbott's entitlement to
warn us that the price of meat will rise under the carbon
tax - was a bit of a furphy - and wanted no part of it.
Especially when economic modelling shows a piece of steak
will cost about one cent more.
