Re: Aus Federal Politics thread (II)
Also, they can't afford an early election because Bandt will almost certainly lose his seat.
Brown is so drunk with power i doubt if he even realises it.
Re: Aus Federal Politics thread (II)
Aye. And his frumpy bitch offsider is just as bad. I wish the Vulture would stand up to 'em and tell 'em to go get r00ted. But of course she can't do that, can she.Big Dog wrote:Also, they can't afford an early election because Bandt will almost certainly lose his seat.

The country would be far better off if the Vulture hadn't have told THAT lie. The Libs would be in power in their own right, we'd still be bitching about the pros and cons of blueo v pinko but at least our stoushes wouldn't be being muddied by that farker Brown and his jibberers. Fark I hate the Greens.

Actually if she'd backed a carbon tax before the last election she probably would have power in her own right. And even if it was the MM Brown would still have to deal with the greens in the Senate and it would be him with the jar of vas on his desk.

FFS! The last thing the Greens are going to do is withdraw support brcause a) they'd hand power to their worst enemy and, (b) it's against their own Party's constitution to withhold supply.

He'd want a farking good reason. Wouldn't be the first time a GG said "I don't think so". Anyway all a DD would do would be give the Greens even more seats.

How does the saying go? "Many a true word said in jest" ?
Re: Aus Federal Politics thread (II)
So a carbon tax is now a temporary fixed carbon price. FFS and FMD.
Fortunately the press corp said "Fark orf, ya Vulture. It's a tax."

"Climate change framework announced
THU 24 FEBRUARY 2011
Prime Minister, Minister for Climate Change and Energy Efficiency
The Prime Minister Julia Gillard today outlined the Government’s plan to cut pollution, tackle climate change and deliver the economic reform Australia needs to move to a clean energy future.
This is an essential economic reform, and it is the right thing to do.
The two-stage plan for a carbon price mechanism will start with a fixed price period for three to five years before transitioning to an emissions trading scheme.
The Government will propose that the carbon price commences on 1 July 2012, subject to the ability to negotiate agreement with a majority in both houses of Parliament and pass legislation this year.
A carbon price is a price on pollution. It is the cheapest and fairest way to cut pollution and build a clean energy economy. The best way to stop businesses polluting and get them to invest in clean energy is to charge them when they pollute.
The businesses with the highest levels of pollution will have a very strong incentive to reduce their pollution.
The Government will then use every cent raised to:
Assist families with household bills
Help businesses make the transition to a clean energy economy
Tackle climate change
The Government will not shy away from this difficult but vital economic reform to move Australia to a clean energy nation.
The global economy is shifting.
Right now, Australia is at risk of falling behind the rest of the world. The longer we wait, the greater the cost to the economy, and the greater the cost to Australian jobs.
An initial fixed carbon price will provide businesses with a stable and predictable platform to transition to a ‘cap and trade’ emissions trading scheme that will be linked to international carbon markets.
This will give businesses time to understand their carbon liability and begin the transformation in a steady and purposeful way.
Today’s proposal is the result of hard work by the Multi-Party Climate Change Committee which has been meeting co-operatively, determined to help deliver this crucial economic reform.
The framework has been agreed by Government and Greens members of the Multi-Party Climate Change Committee (MPCCC). The other members, Mr Tony Windsor and Mr Robert Oakeshott, have agreed that the proposal should be released for community consultation.
The Committee will continue to discuss other important elements of the proposal including the starting level of the fixed price, any phasing in of sectors of the economy, and assistance for both households and industry.
The document outlining the proposed carbon price mechanism is available below.

It doesnt matter ...she has caught herself in another piece of bullsh!t ...she was on the tv last night saying that only the Libs are calling it a tax ...and then they showed about ten different soundbites of her calling it a tax from the time she announced her election promise was now being pissed on by the watermelons ...i'd rather she forgot about Abbott and got on with the job of running the country
Abbott will disappear if she does a good job
