Where oh where oh where is Joe
Did he go
To where beer flows?
Or is it champagne
That dulls his pain
And soothes his budget woes?

Love this comment today, from Live Politics
Minerals Resource Rent Tax Repeal and Other Measures Bill (2014)
Manager of Opposition Business Tony Burke is hopping cranky about it.
Burke says that Labor hasn't yet seen this "new" legislation.
"We're about to debate legislation that we can't see!"
"This is a government run by children!"

Treasurer Joe Hockey made a meal of his first budget, and is made an even bigger meal of settling and selling it.....
maybe he's got really, really bad indigestion....after making a dog's breakfast out of the budget.....and ate some when no-one was looking

Tony Abbott slaps down Joe Hockey after stoush over WA GST anger
Treasurer Joe Hockey has rounded on Liberal Premier Colin Barnett in a partyroom stoush on the amount of GST revenue Western Australia receives.
And in a worrying sign for the Treasurer, who has been under pressure for his performance selling the budget, he was cut off by Deputy Liberal Leader Julie Bishop and rebuked by Prime Minister Tony Abbott.
Sources told Fairfax Media the showdown was sparked when former WA state treasurer turned federal MP Christian Porter stood up to argue for a greater GST share for the West. He was delegated to speak for his WA colleagues.
Mr Porter said that WA received an unfair and falling share of the GST and flagged that he would get every WA MP and Senator to author a submission to an upcoming review into the tax system.
But Mr Hockey was said to have taken a dim view of the complaint and chose to attack Mr Barnett instead, declaring that WA was the worst performing government in the Commonwealth when it came privatising infrastructure.
