Freudian Slip posted:Hehehe - party of unity, adults etc etc What's really freakish is that apparently you only get funding if you firesale all your assets. Which is...uh, confusing, saying one can't get money from the feds until you've already gotten money from short-sighted bullshit. The notion that a state is considered to be subpar for not kowtowing enough to private industry is telling.

She is by far the best choice. She's the only one who sounds like she actually understands what she's saying.

You're forgetting the fact that she's female and would have to lead a group of people that showed pretty clearly last term that they're unable to deal with female leaders.

Murodese posted:Bishop is the next Liberal leader. They've been setting her up for a couple months now. Yeah I can see this happening. On one hand it'd be so sweet to see Hockey, Pyne and Abbott given the boot and demoted (dead wood, have to go), the prospect of The Bishop of Asbestos at the helm is particularly worrying considering that she's the most competent one the LNP have.

Murodese posted:e; wasn't super supposed to go to 12% by 2018? Government wanted to free the increases at 9.5% until 2018 and then start going up by 0.5% until it hit 12% by June 2023. Looks like this is even worse since it only gets to 10% by 2021.

To be fair keeping those until the end of 2016/late 2017 might very well involve keeping them until the next Labor government.

I actually think those Palmer dates were selected to allow for them to be things that the PUP could use during an election campaign. While we're on LNP speculation; In a previous post I fakeposted the LNP play book and suggested that one way you could tell who was being groomed as a scapegoat was that they became the spokesthing for the government. Head scumbag Morrison has been used a lot recently to do such things as announce our going to war. Is it too much to hope for? Also West Papua? Who_Cares!.png

Anidav posted:Mining Tax is gone. It was sadly expected. As the Something Wonky guys have been hammering on about in their Podcast, Palmer is only there to make sure things that effect him are either stopped or don't happen. Just look at the death of the "Carbon Tax" as another example. There goes another avenue of Government revenue. So far Abbott is happy to cut areas where they can get revenue from, but other than the lovely $7 doctor co-payment, hasn't come up with where they are going to make up the shortfall other than "gently caress over the poor" Vladimir Poutine posted:Meanwhile the body of a West Papuan independence leader has been floating in a sack in the ocean.

It took Tony Abbott almost a year, and significant concessions, to get a mining magnate to vote to decrease his own tax bill.

Just look at the death of the "Carbon Tax" as another example. I'm not convinced that's the whole story with Palmer to be honest. It probably started that way but I get the impression he's enjoying a bit of populist ego boosting as well.
