Every tradie I know wears a watch that costs more than their SS/XR8/Navara/Hilux ute. Every single one.

I'm just infuriated, absolutely livid that a sitting government would break one of the oldest conventions of letting the other side off the hook completely because they expect the same when it's their turn. How will government function when there's accountability and oversight for poor, selfish and outright corrupt decision making?

How can we possibly govern if we have to worry about every corrupt and incompetent decision we make potentially being exposed???

Oliver noted that prices in Sydney rose 72% over five years to their August 2017 high, and Melbourne prices rose 57% over five years to their November 2017 high, so the current price declines are taking place in a context of recently strong capital gains.

the chief economist for Capital Economics in Australia, said values could slide by 12% over the next four years.

it's the only argument to play though isn't it? by threatening to release labors dirty documents they hope people will go 'yeah i wanna see the dirt on labor too now' which is probably not going to be a thing that really happens.

Would people vote lib just because they made a likely empty threat to air our labor's dirt? Could people be that stupid? (:sigh:)

I'm reading the argument as Labor are untrustworthy and break conventions to the voters, and a warning to Labor not to do it again, which makes me wonder if know about something else.

I fully expect labor to release a bunch of stuff about Guy’s rezoning of Fishermen’s Bend.

He effectively doubled the size of the CBD by rezoning a bunch of industrial precinct into the most development friendly zone we have, and the biggest landowners in that industrial zone just happened to be major liberal party figures and donors.

This, and also genuinely believing everyone is as corrupt as they are. For better or worse, when your culture (societal, Party, whatever) has normalised something, and it's a culture you're deeply absorbed in, you can genuinely forget/not realise not everyone operates in the same way that you do.
