Thank You so much for all your comments thus far.
I regularly probably like so many voters watch the
various news programs, read the papers, read various
opinions, and try to make sense of our current
political scene. And I have to admit that at present
I am becoming more undecided about things. One minute
I'm sure of where I stand, then something happens, and
I change my mind. To me, Mr Abbott is an enigma. I can't
quite figure him out - I thought I had - but he keeps
surprising me. I am concerned about the recent development
of the suggestive changes to the pension. If this goes
ahead it will affect my mum very badly. She's barely keeping
her head above water now. But I suppose I should wait and
see whether these chnages are merely up for discussion at
present or whether they will really go ahead. There are
therefore a few concerns - and perhaps are people are feeling
the same way. The same goes for increasing the retirement
age to 70. That would be great I'm sure for those who want to
go on working for as long as they can - but what about those
who can't physically work - or those who try to get jobs
(workers in car manufacturing) who are over fifty - nobody
wants to hire them. Also what about taking jobs away from
young people. Many questions to be answered.

I guess we have to wait and see what develops next. And I
certainly don't have all the answers. Hence this discussion.
I'm hoping someone here on OLO can contribute to a more
in depth analysis (politics aside).

cont'd ...

I forgot to add that a PM's physical attributes don't
matter to me as much as his skills to do the job.
Skills such as initiative, leadership, drive,
negotiating ability, willingness to take risks,
and persuasiveness. I accept that changes have to be made
especially in the system of taxation, but I would like
to see this done in an even-handed manner. If we're going
to talk about the "Age of Entitlement" being over - this
should apply to everyone and not just the most vulnerable
in society.

foxie..ya cant take opinion..out/of poli-ticks..ouT OF POLY-TRICKS
its the winner take all....[full steam ahead...pause your dead]
eg..just a pHoto of some kids in water..AND YOUR POLITICO PENSION/...BEGINS ITS PAYOFF..
