Dear rehctub,

May I politely suggest that you actually read
the link I provided earlier. It clarifies
the entire situation regarding economic "confidence,"
in our community and why we should not believe
the spin that's currently being politically flaunted
for political gain.

Well, that was a joke....

Hockey announces costings....no detail...8 pages of what?

These are not extensive costings.

A few questions and Hockey and Robb scurry away.

Yep, should be an interesting few years if these jokers take the helm.

Dear Poirot,

It scares the heck out of me especially
when the Coalition has announced that there
will be a Commission of "Audit," which is
a Liberal tactic that has been used in Victoria,
Queensland, and NSW to not tell voters the
massive cuts that will be heading their way
in basic services and infrastructure, health,
education, transport, and so on. It now appears
that everything is on the table - despite the
re-assurances that this is not so,
in the Coalition's attempt to garner votes.

We need to ask, why haven't they costed their NBN,
their "stop the boats" policy, and their "climate-change"
policy?

Instead we got - 8 pages of nothing.
This is simply treating voters as mugs.

Lexi,

"We need to ask, why haven't they costed their NBN,

The voters are quite happy to be treated as mugs - it seems.

The sheer incompetence of these bozos is breathtaking.

What's more to the point is that the people who are treating them as saviours can't see it.

Amid the trumpets and fanfair, what do we get?

8 piddly pages and no detail - that's Hockey's "budget emergency".

Gawd help us.

Foxy,

(Sorry, so used to Lexi:)

rehctub,

Joe Hockey and his coterie of clowns obviously "does" think that people are stupid.

(and he's probably right, judging by support for the dodgy incompetent Coalition)

They've just back-flipped bigtime on the internet filter.

Here's Turnbull on Labor's internet filter, 2012:

"This was always a bad idea. It was a bad for freedom, it was bad for freedom of speech."

Just gets funnier : )

But then again, Malcolm Turnbull says there's no backflip on internet filtering policy document - poorly worded and incorrect.

Never a dull moment when you leave it all until the eleventh hour - and you're the LNP.

Stay tuned.
