That's not what the internal Labor Party polls are showing the Labor Party politicians....who are utterly petrified. You simply cannot lie to the Australian public just before an election and get away with it. They remember !! Don't be surprised if Labor gets completely wiped out in both...

I see the normal pattern of discussion on Somersoft is being followed here. 1. Statement made. 2. Statement disagreed with. 2a. Either outright rubbished, or 2b. Ask for more clarification. 3. Examples given. 4. Further examples and clarification belittled. 4a. Either outright...

...."not many" being the operative word David. The Age's infinitessimally small little poll of less than 4,000 Melbournian on-line clickers after 6 weeks of introduction of the Tax is not representative and cannot be relied upon.....they even say as much right there on the graph. Give it...

Nothing worse.... There's nothing worse than two normally reasonably chaps, both passionate about a certain subject, going toe to toe in an attempt to tear each other apart. I am guilty of this behaviour as well. It doesn't reflect kindly on either of the chaps. You are both well read...

Nice try - but no cigar. If you are trying to equate what I said about WA electricity prices over 4 years with the enormous bellwether national economic scorecard over a 20 year period, that starkly differentiates the economic management credentials of each political party.....you are sadly...

...soaring compared to what.... As usual, to get to the truth, one has to ignore the melodramatic attention seeking headlines and dig quite deep to actually find the real story behind the numbers which form the basis of the article and all the 'claims'. I cannot speak for the ther states...

....if that is the basis then it is a very shaky basis indeed. 1. There are a multitude of businesses that cannot pass these costs on, as they compete in the Australian marketplace for customers with international companies who do not have this impost placed upon them by their Govts...

For once I agree with you Ideo. Offering anything to Wilkie was a huge mistake. He's as mad as a cut snake, typical leftie Tasmanian with his hand out as usual for all the cash he can get - you see, with Green's policy they have none down in Tasmania. He was never going to do a deal with...

Exactly - those were official findings from a statutory Commonwealth body after 3 years of investigations, even interviewing the person involved. That is evidence. What I don't understand, is why does it take soooo long for the Police to charge him and test it in court. Why does "we must...

hehe, left wing dribble from SMH journalists does not constitute evidence.

Turn it up evand.....you've been plodding along saying the most outrageous things with not a shred of evidence. This is one of your stock in trade responses when you're on a hiding to nowhere. Your last couple of posts have had no factual basis to them whatsoever, and then you have the...

Q. E. D......

.....which, as you have publicly admitted, was dutifully displayed by voting for the ex-comedian Austen Tayshus (real name Alexander Jacob Gutman) representing of all things the Australian Sex Party in the Federal seat of Warringah, Tony Abbott's own electorate. Oh the delicious irony...

What a sterling idea !!!

Are these "extreme" ?? In Australia, it's been thus for as long as living memory. We even have nation athems and ballads about this stuff written a hundred years ago. I reckon droughts and flood are quite normal and should be expected, not extreme at all. Sounds very alarmist...

We noticed that yesterday. It was -8°C in Thredbo and 32°C in Darwin, a spread of 40°C across the country. I guess "on average" it was 12°C yesterday across Australia ??

Exactly.....all of the women who came out to initially support her due to her anatomical bits have now all fallen silent. Julia is a prime example of everyone who, after a while, must survive and be judged on their competency. When they tick all of the progressive boxes but are a wood-duck...

.....that's my impression as well.

Love to see where you get that figure from. I've tracked down a nice graph of Govt debt owing since 1970 onwards. http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/til-debt-do-us-part-the-credit-bill-you-didnt-know-you-had/ You can clearly see the $ 96 Billion debt spike in 1996 when Keating got...

Hah !! That was nonsense the fist time you posted that over-inflated waffle piece, which bore no resemblance to reality. The Labor smoke and mirrors turned a tiny debt in 1982, inflated in via the 15% pa inflation figures for 13 years and came up with some magical nonsense of 40 Billion...
