Hassy, you are delusional, get Nursy to give you a double dose of your medication before its to late. The in house bingo starts in five minutes. So on your zimmer frame and off you go, you bloody old fool.

G'day HASBEEN...You've said it all, my friend. I agree with everything you've said!

Paul,

Spare me what you think is snappy repartee. If we didn't have an LNP government you would never have brought up this topic.

" What is needed is a move away from the conservative ideology…..". Yeah. Sure. Let's have some of that old extreme Green socialist ideology. That'll put things right. It's worked so, so well in the past! And it was going to go the same way with Green-backed Labor this time if the electorate hadn't been on the ball.

Yeah lets follow Venezualla like the abc/greens/regressives were so keen on not long back. Just ended up like every other marxist diaster.

Paul while we differ and always will on your party's worth you get kicking after kicking for? holding another opinion!
Rest old mate.
We are about to see this government come a gutser, believe it.
Albo will lead us out of the wreckage and even you may like him
Let us NEVER forget apart from our views about each others parties we swim in the fair go mate end of the pool
Watch our up and coming next Hawke, leave you to name him but it is not Albo [our next PM]

Paul,

What are you on about? There were no GDP announcements today. Or any time recently. No question things aren't great but let's stay in the rough vicinity of reality. OK?

" If we exclude mining, the market sector of the economy is performing even worse..." bblah blah.

And if I exclude my left leg, I'm the ideal weight.

Why willy-nilly exclude mining? And did you exclude mining when making your 1992 comparison or any of the other comparisons for that matter.

Again, what the hell are you raving about?
