The ScoMo Government

I see today that Malcolm's book can be had for $8.78, that's a big drop from the release price, it must be as boring as his time as P.M.:D
He should have got Paul Keating to proof read it and add a bit of zing.:xyxthumbs

ScoMo lost some political bark during the bushfires, where he looked caught-out and reactive. What does a Shire boy know about bushfires.

Talking about bushfires, it looks as though this years seasonal fuel reduction burn is already hitting snags.

https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...0-p54lft.html?js-chunk-not-found-refresh=true

The burn is scheduled for late autumn, conditions permitting, and will target an area within a few hundred metres of residential streets.

The controversy looks set to reignite debate about the extent and method of hazard reduction burning across NSW after a devastating bushfire season saw 25 people die and 2448 homes destroyed.

“The hazard reduction burn, it just destroys everything,” said Friends of Malabar chairman Dave Pyett. “We'll end up with a tea tree forest.”

Deputy mayor and Greens councillor Philipa Veitch raised the matter at Randwick City Council’s last meeting and won majority support for intervention.

She acknowledged the need for hazard reduction activities but argued it was important to “act cautiously” to protect the headland. It is home to rare bird species and a significant portion of the remaining 149 hectares of Eastern Suburbs Banksia Scrub.
 
I've seen it all now... Tony Abbott says turn the double dole into a "wage subsidy for older people" to improve society rather than the budget.

This is after creating polices that abolished the dole for under 30's and blowing the pension age out to 70 citing a "budget emergency" (the debt was a fraction of what it will be after next year)

Quite hilarious when someone doesn't believe their own narrative about austerity. LOL

Must be a Fabian hey?

So the libs have turned into the greens?

Wtf is going on???
 
For those not complete on the Meta Data retention legislation signed into law by George 'Soapy' 'Satin' Brandis AG... see the clause which includes 'and to protect revenues of the crown'...
Any body who in this country who's seen first and second year start up Business taken to bankruptcy over trite amount$ by the ATO Knows the modus.
And a supposed majority now want a track me app in their pocket curtesy of trusty Gussy Gate Taylor, Aloha Schmo, Stuart 'I'll delete all your info from my phone' Robert and Dutton???

Strange world some live in.

Does Aust have a strategic/emergency reserve of oil?
It might be a good time to get one or double the current capacity because the POO is so cheap now and looks likely to remain so for many months.

Apparently Angus bought $94million worth of unrefined oil to be stored in the US
I wonder who he bought it from?
 
My heart goes out to poor Schmo... All the million$$$ of public money pissed up on the grass out FAR'Kurrnell ... The bright spicy pageant of hubris and distorted and tortured historical piffle, egged along by Schmo's own historical 'knowledge'... like his proposed Cook's circumnavigation re-enactment...
I thank corona for the small mercy's...

My true thanks go out to Mr Kev Carmody... for all you have given Australia and keep safe.

And to Bas that JuiceMedia ... Gold(it did load up in my Youtube before I saw your post, I just had to watch it again)

Bi-elections...Constance in the Monaro would be a clear and present danger to 'Aloha' Schmo with his creaking intellect and creepy disposition. Constance actually knows which way is up; Schmo from marketing would still be confused even after Jacinda had pointed to the ceiling...
 
There's been more than one high speed multiple fatality in a Monaro... Buff Head Bailiaro looks to be on life support after his 'tragic' roll over in the Monaro. the federal parliament has lost nothing.
Constance seems to be suffering whip-lash...

Fiona 'IceVoVo's looks to be on the core-flue for the Nasty Party.... mmmm...best 'o' luck...
 
It reminded us of the fond affirmations between Australian politicians and mainstream media; the sonorous repetitions of the word "reform" followed by talk about corporate tax cuts and deregulation of the workforce.

I bet if you were delivering pizzas on a moped in the rain across the Sydney Harbour Bridge at night - with no super, guaranteed work hours or insurance - you wouldn't be calling for more deregulation.

First barley then red meat nothing to see here
The thought of this happening under a Labor government and ASF Congo line of rusted on Liberal voters frothing is unimaginable

I also bet if you were a reporter in the age of speech to text software, you wouldn't want to hear the words reform and deregulation, the pizza delivery guy on the moped probably has more security of tenure.:roflmao:

You think that is funny, wait until after tax time, when the ATO data matching computer starts to compare earnings to those who accessed super withdrawls and also matching jobseeker data with jobkeeper data.
I hope those who claimed, synchronised their info with their employer, there could be a huge differential.
We did mention at the start of all this, that a lot of data that wasn't readily accessible, will be given freely.:eek:
Just my opinion.:D
 
I think the discrepancy adds to my initial claim that this program should've been rolled out long before any other handouts...

Combine this with a moratorium on loan interest and business rent as well as partial super access and you have a fairly sustainable shutdown IMO.
