  • JOE....you are a WOFTAM of the first order.

  • while i have more respect for Joe Hockey then most other Liberals i've known, i am still not completely convinced...no offence but i'd still have social justice even if it means being in a little bit of debt...

    i mean the Liberals say that it's a lot but my income has gone up not down since Labor came into power so i see no reason to change.

  • The ALP:

    1) increase Expenditure 2) Increase Taxes

    3) Eventually get voted out

    4) Liberals come in, improve the economy. (Costello had debt at 0-0.5% of GDP)

    5) Labour comes back in- through unsubstantiated promises - go way over budget, increase debt and the cycle continues - this is what has happened for years!!! - study the past to predict the future.

    Labour is bad news

    - a vote for greens - is a vote for labour as they do not hold majority, its all about numbers.

  • No. It looks like it is empty, but they are in their offices listening and watching via CCTV.

    They are still watching, just not in the chamber. This is a common misunderstanding about Parliament.

  • The Labor side of Parliament is empty! Where the hell are the Labor MP's? Those rude, lazy bastards aren't present and we PAY THEM THEIR SALARIES! What a disgraceful act by the Labor Party. I am disgusted!! Why has this not been reported in the media????

  • *raises hand* I voted Labor at the time because I thought they were going to do good things like roll back WorkChoices I was too young to know what a Budget Deficit meant. But I like Joe Hockey, and considering that I didn't get a cent of that cash splash the Labor government dished out anyway, and considering I lost my faith in the Greens when I heard that Peter Garrett was a former greenie, I probably will change votes. With Budget in surplus, government could do more for unemployment/pension

  • Brilliant Joe, just brilliant. The ALP look really uncomfortable when making speeches, maybe Kruddy and Goose could take some charisma lessons from the libs.
