Also, since Labor has been in, they have kept taxi rates low, 35% lower than those in Sydney to be exact and Labor are refusing to put up the rates according to the market, that's because Labor want's to make it easy for people to get around and buy things, Liberal always put up taxes and make it harder for people to do things as most of their money is going to Liberal.
And because of Labor, more than half of Australia's new jobs were generated in Victoria last year, and, Labor has lowest payroll tax every year since 2000, When Liberal were in power Victoria had the highest payroll tax and highest land tax, now Victoria has the second lowest payroll tax in Australia and the lowest land tax, and, Labor are lowering payroll tax again next year.
The only way for Liberal to fund all their policies is to cut jobs and funding from Health, Education, Justice and Transport, in the 1990's, Liberal said they would employ an extra 2.000 Police at the 1996 election yet they cut 800 Police when they won, they also cut 3.900 Medical Jobs and got of tram conductors, and, Liberal cut more than 900 staff from train stations and because of that, not one station in Victoria was staffed!
Oh great, walkabout09, the Liberal Party employee, he even stated that he works for Liberal a few weeks ago.
If Labor was shit, how come they have 13 seats more than what Liberal have.
Yet Victoria isn't in debt since Labor has been in, and Victoria has got a major budget surplus, Liberal have even refused to have it's policies costed, and we know their around 9.6 billion so far, and yet the State doesn't have the money to fund that much, so if Liberal fund all that, Victoria goes in debt!
Every project funded means major paperwork, and Liberal are to lazy for that paperwork so they fund nothing, that means the Liberal Premier can take a holiday.
It's true, Liberal try and get the budget big yet there not trying to make the state budget big, there only trying to make there budget big!
No, in fact none of the money went to the State, it was a scam by Ted Baillieu who was the president of the Liberal party at that time, Ted owns a real estate business and he worked out away to make big money for himself, and i'm right, so are freedom of information documents, also, Labor have kept a massive budget surplus since 1999, every year the state budget goes up, overall, Labor funds more then what Liberal did, that's because Liberal are to lazy!
The last time the Liberal party were in power in Victoria in the 1990's, they closed more than 300 schools, 100 schools,, 5 train lines, cut 800 Police jobs instead of employing 2.000 as they first said, and Liberal cut 2.900 Medical Jobs, and, Liberal got rid of tram conductors! they even closed Police stations, i would never vote for Liberal in Victoria again!! this election i'm voting Labor, they have done so much better!!!!!!!
I do recall Jeff Kennett sold emergency assistance Triple Zero to an overseas foreign company. Black Saturday bushfires in Victoria was the worst bushfires in Australian history,
Um... 000 is a operator service, they get a call, they pass it on to the relevant emergency service department in the area. It's still run from Melbourne CBD, under strict Government controls & standards. How does the recent bushfires have anything to do with an operator service being outsourced?
Some fifty-thousand public servants were retrenched between 1992 and 1995 . Its called private enterprise or privatisation but for you its 'called the Kennett Revolution' selling Australia ,
The Liberal Party also closed more than 300 schools, 100 hospitals, cut 800 Police Jobs, and 2.900 Medical Jobs were cut by Liberal, Liberal even got rid of tram conductors!
I wouldn't be voting for liberal at the 2010 State Election, Ted Baillieu was the President of the Liberal party in the 90's and he gave the advice to the premier to close all them schools, hospitals, police stations and train lines, and to cut all them jobs, and now Ted Baillieu is the leader of the Liberal Party and he's at it again, we can't trust the Victorian Liberal party, since Labor leader John Brumby has been in office, he's done a great job!
@myvistahosting stop acting as tho you've made a choice with this election. you sound exactly like any party hack who just wants an excuse so they can shrub off their brainwashing
We all know what Liberal did last time in power, they closed 300 schools, 100 hospitals, 70 Police stations, cut 800 Police Jobs, cut 2.900 Medical Jobs, Liberal even got rid of tram conductors, and Liberal never spent money on transport, health of education, and you want me to vote for Liberal, what so they can take Victoria back to the past, since Labor has been in, we've had a budget surplus and with no debt and major investments!
@myvistahosting well done you can quote the labor propaganda word for word. and one of the liberal brainwashed can go to the vic liberal website and quote that and say how shit labor is doing.
i never told you to vote for liberal or labor, but thats the funny thing with party hacks, they see the world as black and white - if you arent completely devoted to their party you're against them.
I'm not devoted to any party, i'm just devoted to keeping Liberal out of power, Labor is the only other option and they've funded much more than Liberal such as new trains, trams, buses, train and tram extensions, the SmartBus service, even the recent order of new trains and trams.
@myvistahosting you sound no different to the liberal hacks saying they dont like the liberals but they're the only thing keeping the labor communists out who fuck up the entire nation. politics is NEVER as clean cut as one party always cuts jobs and funding and fucks things up and the other creates a land of milk and honey. its so simplistic.
Oh i don't work for Labor or Liberal, i live in Victoria, i don't wanna see debt like in the 1980's by Cain/Labor, but i also don't wanna see jobs lost, but since 2000, Labor has never repeated the 80's and remained in no debt, the reason why Liberal never get in debt is because they don't spend a cent, that's the easy things to do, it means no paper work, less work for the premier etc.
John Brumby is very smart at he's job indeed however.
This is why i like Labor over Liberal: Labor has put together transport, health and education plans and a climate change plan, Labor has plans to order 100 more trams, 50 of which have already been ordered, plus 90 new trains, an 280 low floor buses, they are also extending the Epping-South Morang line and the Sunbury line, plus i really wanna see the new Melbourne Metro Rail Tunnel built, it would help a lot and provide more access to the city etc.
I've had a loot at Liberal's website, they have no plans to buy more trains, trams or buses, nor any rail extensions, in fact, Ted Baillieu the leader of the Liberal Party has said he elected he'll cut the transport plan, he also named a few projects to cut such as the Metro Tunnel and the 4 new train station including one at Williams Landing, the premier gets paid around 350.000 p/y, less projects means less paper work and more things to do in personal time.
Bloody Jeff! I don't like the man, but I agree with him on this.
Howard's a fucking cunt, he always has been a fucking cunt, he will fucking become more of a fucking cunt as he gets older, his fucking children will be fucking cunts because he is such a fucking cunt, his fucking grandchildren will be fucking cunts because he is such a cunt and his great-grandchildren will be fucking cunts because JOHN HOWARD IS SUCH A FUCKING CUNT!!!
Forget Howard,Rudd is the new blonde Paul Keating, this will be the second recession we don't have to have.Rudd is a pompous expert that gloats in his own self worth,he is, and will leave this country in misery.
If you want he can say recession and carbon tax in mandarin, but he is currently on his 15th overseas junket promoting he own genius and great wisdom. 雪隆海南会馆
KENNETT has blood on his hands-by taking away the public dental scheme from country Victorians...Sure, he's doing good work for Beyond Blue - but he caused a lot of depression among country folk. Karma.
Kennett. The ultimate hypocrite. He is allegedly the champion for those with stress and depression. In government, he passed legislation that severley restricted the rights of injured workers to pursue compensation claims suffering (guess what?)work related stress and depression. See Section 82(2A) Accident Compensation Act (Vic). Thankfully, Courts have seen this law as a croc of shit and have never supported it. Never. As for Howard, don't get me started.
Employment related depression is legally acknowledged in Victoria as well as all other Australian jurisdictions. Not only that, it is also medically acknowledged by psychiatrists and the higher courts. Unless you are a rogue and disgruntled employer, I'm not sure on what you base your opinion. I'm also heartened to see that I have pissed-off a couple of Kennett barrackers.

This Kennet prick sold Victoria out, gave Citylink thieves the rights to fleece Victorians for the use of their own roads for life, made Melbourne the only city in the world where the main southern entry is through a fucking casino, he bloody well deserves to be depressed, prick still picks up a govt. pension for rorting.
Probably the only thing I ever agreed with that fucker Kennett about. Howard was indeed a cunt.
