The Turnbull Government

Jump to new
It's dawned on me lately just how deep corruption is in politics and there's no one to turn to. Shorten ? You must be kidding Turnbull ? Grinning his way through everything except what really counts, we need Australian jobs but Telstra have their call centre in the Phillipines and on it goes.....Australian kids locked out of the housing market because of unrestricted foreign investment and Turnbull grins and does sweet f*** all.

Based purely on what I've seen directly:

Labor = some issues

Liberal = orders of magnitude worse.

I almost joined the Liberal Party once. Wouldn't vote for them under any circumstances these days. I've seen too much.....
 
Well who would you vote for Bill Shorten ? He's borderline simple ....there's no one that I can think of.
 
When ex power brokers turn on their own, you know the old skool parties aren't there former selves.
 
All these self serving bludgers should be made to live in their own electorates and spend 3 months of the year working with the disadvantaged to give them an idea of what real life is like outside the dining room in Canberra.

That $120m on the gay marriage survey doesn't help either.

I thought it's only around $10m for some reason. I mean, 10m registered voters? Snail mail and a barcode reader to tally cannot possibly cost $120m.

Like the NASA tools that cost a fortune : e.g. hammer $68 + $1000(CIA) = $1068 +GST
 
I had dinner recently with a group that included a person who is responsible for a small electronics/engineering group the submarine builds.
They found a couple of significant design issues where they had to undo quite a bit of their work and wait for a redesign that would work.
When they moved to the second sub they noticed that the plans were the original faulty design and when they queried it they were told that their job was to comply with the plans they were issued.
After days of work they were then told to remove their installation and refit to the amended plans.
This is happening in more than one area apparently and our illustrious bullfighting contractors are making a killing on these variations to the original contract.
The general feeling is that nobody in authority or oversight has any clue as to what is going on or how to oversee a major contract.
 
This happens a lot and is why their are so many cost blowouts.

That doesn't automatically disqualify the subject matter. There is one meme there I agree with... where he asks why a gun spree in the USA necessitates facial recognition surveillance here?

It does seem the LNP are prone to people control via punitive action, whereas the ALP prefer social engineering tools
