Abbott has promised lots of things.
In fact, he's pretty much promised everyone whatever he or she wanted to hear promised, to the point that his own shadow finance minister, Andew Robb is now distancing himself from Abbott's wild, on-the-fly commitments, which so far have generated a 70BAUD black hole.
Who do ya trust?
Maybe not Gillard, definitely not Abbott.

Abbott wants to cut health education and public service. Normal areas for coalition govt; Tax breaks for the 1%, pledges is blood, crap, no, 70 billion $ black hole.
Every thing a coalition is expected to be.
What is the next installment.

Abbott wants to cut health education and public service.
579,
now you're copying Belly's lines. It's not about cutting jobs, get that into you instead of trying to misconstrue & angling for negatives. Just because you don't understand the definition of waste doesn't mean we want this waste to continue. I don't know Tony Abbott personally but I have met many Labor cronies. I can confidently say that the Coalition Has a far greater degree of integrity than Labor. I have had that proven on a number of occasions.
No politician is perfect but no Coalition politician has as little integrity/competence as those in Labor.
To me anyone who is pro Labor is anti Australia.

The coalition are doers for believing what they read in the paper, and that is where i get my info from.
He makes wild statements and it gets printed. They are up to 70,billion in the red.
So i am not surprised he is looking for govt; cuts. Hospitals and education, are easy targets, as with public servants. The vic; conservative govt is doing just that also. This is how they operate.
Big Joe is not popular with the 1%, he gets figures wrong. He says 20,000 will go.
Protect the noalition all you like, i can only repeat what i hear or read. News papers don't tell lies, do they.

579,
I suppose the term natural attrition is foreign to you. My guess is that you lot are trembling with fear that we might just get a Government that asks you to pull your weight.
It must be scary for you to contemplate a living based on your own expertise & competence under a Labor Governments policies.
