With a line up like Peter Dutton, Kevin Andrews, Christian Porter, Greg Hunt and Tony Abbott.
What do you expect, we lick their ass.

Get-up discovered the broad avenue of social media, where dwell the disenfranchised majority.
A sure winner.

Poor old GetUp is struggling to cover its $7.2 million wage bill, according to The Australian. Yes. $7.2 million. Last year they received $12.4 million in donations, 70% of which went on salaries, admin and TRAVEL.

Like big charity BUSINESSES, GetUp seems to be a job-creation scheme for fat cats and frauds. Volunteers (more accurately activists) are "disillusioned", poor, silly sods

I had a glance at their Aust website. Just looking at the board gave me a sense of something not being as it is portrayed to be.
They did not disclose how much of the donations go into "running" this show which has all the smell of a huge con exploiting the idealists !
It's clearly a Conservative bashing outfit with no clue as to why things are the way they are.
It looks to me they're simply having a good lurk by hood-winking well meaning, decent people.
If Getup really & I mean really wanted to do the right thing by all they'd ask people to change not ask them for their change !

Aidan, I'm sorry but I am one of those people who look at things a little more simplistically, and if your description of running the economy is how the govt thinks, I disagree.
You see, I cannot shake this feeling that we, as a country are being manipulated by external forces.
That is, the govt is being led by some foreign people or entity who are in very high positions and have the power to hold Australia to ransom, for their own end or gain.
I always resort to asking who or what is so powerful that they can change the fortunes of a whole country?
The answer is, without doubt or question; The banks!
And who or what runs, owns and controls the banks the federal reserve and so on?
I am angry at these pricks because I keep bookmarking a sight that's headed "Rothschild control nearly all the banks and federal reserves in the world".
Someone keeps removing it.
WHY?
By doing that they are effectively confirming it as being true.
Anyway, it is fact that we, the people are not privy to the truth because if we were, we would have one of the biggest uprisings against the banks and ultimately these scum-bags, and I for one would be more than happy to cut their throats and see that we are never again enslaved by sick demented vial people the likes of which are controlling the world today.

Value for money is an objective not a tactic, and despite their greater business experience the Libs are dismally failing to achieve it. One big problem is they seem to have fallen for the rhetoric of small government: they think cutting funding will automatically result in greater efficiency; they don't understand that it will often result in false economies instead.
