As for Economic incompetence:

"The Victorian government’s spending on public servants has exploded by more than a quarter since Labor came to office — the fastest-growing wages bill of any Australian government ahead of November’s state election.

The rising wages bill, driven by new hiring and union demands for higher pay, will lift the state’s employee expenses to an estim­ated $28.9 billion this year, or more than 45 per cent of general revenue.

Nationwide analysis reveals Victoria’s wages bill grew almost as fast as Queensland’s, where the public sector union has warned the official statistics are unreliable because they fail to ­acknowledge people employed on commercial contracts or through labour-hire firms."

Toni,

If you have a problem with the terminology the police use, then take it up with them. From what I can see the terminology is as non-racial as possible without providing a completely useless description.

Belly,

What is MT protecting Cash from?

Foxy,

A left whinge opinion piece from a left whinge Peter Lewis in a left whinge online newspaper from 4 months ago bemoaning the fact that MT isn't as left whinge as PL would like. You must be getting desperate.

As for the election in November, first term governments have the benefit of incumbency and generally don't lose without a scandal. The Last poll showed Labor/libs 51/49 2pp and that was before the police decided to investigate pressing criminal charges against 20 Labor MPs.

I don't believe Shorten has any true beliefs. He flip-flops according to political necessity, such as over company tax cuts.

Turnbull is herding cats but his goals are preferable to Shorten's on several fronts, including energy and investment.

On energy, the nuclear option must be put on the table with more chance of this under Turnbull. I'm concerned that the renewables path mitigate neither power prices nor AGW.

Investment in Australia will be stifled by high company tax rates, or, winners will be picked for subsidy/support by a bureaucracy with a very poor track record for doing so. Only through growth can there be greater services delivery without higher taxation fro all.

SM well done, switching the subject as an answer, Cash in her lets say well informed use of the media so she could turn union bashing in to a spectator sport pushed the boundaries of honest government way too far, the unpleasant woman ,if in any other party would be mop and bucket in hand if she was to enter parliament

Belly,

I get that you don't like Cash, but perhaps you could point out something that she said that isn't true?

As for the other ALP talking points that you trotted out, really?

Investment is fleeing the country as Aus moves to the highest tax rates, power rates and Labour rates in the world and the Labor ideal would be to de-industrialise as has happened in Tas and SA.
