Re: Aus Federal Politics thread (XI)

The media witch hunt has swung from Gillard to Abbott

When he is gone they will switch to Rudd

and then to Turnbull

[embee]

The pinko car policy may suck but isn't it a bit stinky that a leasing company immediately culls half its workforce based on the possible impacts of a policy change that may not get up.  Surely the workload next week will be the same as this week.   Seems to me it was already in the works and the company stumbled onto a convenient excuse.

The workers shoulda been in a union  

The change date was at announcement ...orders have been cancelled and new orders are a lot harder to sell ...better to cut now than trade at a loss ...they can always re-hire when Rudd wakes up it was a farquen stupid policy change

Try consulting with the industry you are about to screw, Kevin....RSPT all over again

[skully]

When do the changes take effect if passed, A?

[horace]

have never approved of these tax avoidance schemes...delighted to see another loophole closed

[embee]

When do the changes take effect if passed, A?

when bowen announced it

[skully]

Effective immediately? Qunts.

[embee]

standard practice

[skully]

I reiterate - Pinko qunts.

I reiterate - Pinko qunts.

What for?

[embee]

no reason needed

Effective from the start of the next FBT year isn't it?

[skully]

That's what I would've thought.

"we're in the money...we're in the Skulls money"

[embee]

􀍞This will be effective for all contracts entered into from this time forward but there will be a
transition in place until April 2014 to ensure people have time to make the transition and to
factor that into their calculations. It does not affect people who already have a contract in
place, it is only contracts entered into from this time forward.

[skully]

Cheers, A.

Doesn't effect my money, h.

Ballsy move re PNG and asylum seekers.

[embee]

Is it going to stop people drowning ?

[lardbucket]

I don't think many Blues would argue with you, h (I think most of us have acknowledged that Turnbull would clearly be preferred by the Electorate) but it would appear too late in the day now.

A LNP switch to Turnbull at this stage would be political suicide, which is of course why horrie is promoting it.

If the LNP leadership were to change, I will be voting Green. I'm not keen on Abbott's personal style at all, but the LNP team works well together at the moment ... and most importantly he's not the slimy treacherous dictatorial backstabbing control freak piece of shit that is Kevin Rudd, or Malcolm Turnbull; who I see as identical twins separated at birth and dropped like land mines into opposing parties.

I reiterate - Pinko qunts.

... standard practice!

FMD - Andrew Bolt thinks its a good idea!

which would mean it isnt

Krudd's actions over the past month show just how ridiculously stubborn and arrogant the Vulture was. The down side is another 3 years of the farken Pinks. Damn you, Pinkos numbers men, damn you all to hell. [sigh]

[embee]

His asylum policy wont pass the Courts ...and wont be tested until after an election

Its worse than any thought bubble Abbott and Morrison have had on the issue

The open cheque book to PNG just adds to the farce

[skully]

Farcical indeed, A, but this is about perception. And, like it or not, Rudd has reacted politically favourably to all the pinch points and taken swift action since booting Juliar. The polls bear that out.
