The lunatic right

Can you run me through what they have done
Knocked silly Billy's ar$e off last election was a pretty good start, that will go down in history, Labor losing the unlosable election to the man from marketing.

Maybeyou can tell us what labor are going to offer? Move the pension age to 70?:roflmao:
But that will be fine, at least the ex brickie will get his weekend penalty rates, when he works as a barrista because his body is nackered and he is too young for a pension.lol
 
The irony of Liberal voters complain about trying to manage a debt how would you pay for it.... RRT like the oil and gas?
I havent said anything, but you rusted on Labor hacks have selective memories.
How any party pay for the debt, will not be either your or my choice.
The one thing from my experience is, there is a better chance of the workers paying for it under Labor than the Libs, because the unions will back them, as they did with the wages accord.

Which was the last time the workers had to pull Australia out of the $hit.
Ive already done my bit, Im retired, probably the same as you.

Had the 4 kids, been a wage slave for over 40 years, 82 recession, 87 crash, 90 tech wreck, 2000Asia crash, GFC, covid, both knees replaced one hip, only 6 months to go till Im 66.5 yrs old then I qualify for a pension, time to pass the batton. Lol

Yes, what we need are some decent unions who will go on strike for better wages and conditions, like the good old days.
That's my earlier point mate.... the current laws prevent the good old days.
It's also worth remembering the current Govt tried to remove the BOOT test... something the opposition blocked. That alone is worth my vote.

So much for the LNP and Labor being the same :rolleyes:

Umm what did you say?

While the Labor Party had previously opposed the removal of the BOOT prior to the coronavirus pandemic, Labor leader Anthony Albanese was noncommittal on Friday.

“I’m awaiting the discussions which take place. What I do say is out of any process, workers shouldn’t be left worse off. It’s that simple,’’ he said.

“We need to have a bargaining framework whereby we can have win-win, because productivity is going backwards for employers, and wages aren’t keeping up with the cost of living for employees.

“The system quite clearly isn’t working at the moment.”
 
The unions wanted it changed at the time as well as its a bit of a mess.
The difference being libs would scrap penalty rates if given the chance.
 
Umm what did you say?
What I said was exactly what happened - Labor blocked it in the senate.

I'm not interested in what Albo said before the event - I only care about the outcome.

When it comes the IR laws the current govt and opposition are poles apart.

And thanks for highlighting another difference re: the penalty rates :)

It is pretty hard to write an essay on a team that have sat on the reserve bench this long, as for their policies, the last election showed the general consensus.
This time they are doing the right thing, saying nothing, let it be a surprise, we will all be able to judge whether they are good or bad this time next year. Hopefully they are good, time will tell.

Shorten's mistake was to concentrate too much on the downtrodden and disaffected (even though he had some good policies in that area), while Albo seems more mainstream, pushing job creation and improved manufacturing capacity and it seems to be working according to the polls (although we know what happened last time with the polls :rolleyes: ).

Geez, not only do a live rent-free in your head, it appears I've got a horse property, stables, and being there long enough to shoot the elderly nags.

Kewel, bro! ;)
