Humble Pie

For Tony Abbott,

Promises before the election, will people forgive him?

These very important promises he made probably convinced many to vote for him.

Does it make him look like a fool because he harped on about the previous governments promises.

Phony's latest blunder from yesterday makes him look like a righteous whatever:

“So, in conclusion let me say, we will deliver a fair dinkum paid parental leave scheme. What tweaks might possibly occur will depend very much on the course of discussions with the Senate early in the new year. Likewise, everything else. They all know what we are trying to achieve. Everyone knows where this Government’s heart is. Everyone knows what this Government’s fundamental commitments are. Our heart is with a fair dinkum paid parental leave scheme. Our heart is with a country that can look its kids and grandkids in the eye and say, ‘We are not leaving you with unsustainable debt; we are not going to practice intergenerational theft to sustain our own spending’

* riiiiiight.....and .....*PPppppFttttt!

Time and time again he continues to prove just how out of depth and incompetent he is.

Where's Joe?

The Prime Minister’s claim that “we are not leaving you with unsustainable debt; we are not going to practice intergenerational theft to sustain our own spending” is even more delusional.

How exactly does jacking-up younger Australian’s university debts, cutting access to unemployment benefits for six months for under-30s, and opening the sleuth gates to 457 visas when youth labour underutilsation is running at 30%, improve inter-generational equity?

The Prime Minister’s claims are all the more galling given the Budget left untouched the massive concessions on superannuation, negative gearing, and capital gains taxes, which overwhelmingly benefit the older generations at the expense of the young, including by increasing the tax burden on ordinary workers, as well as raising younger Australian’s housing costs (and mortgage debts).

Tony Abbott is either delusional or being deliberately obtuse as he attempts a big electoral bribe to solve his “women problem”.

"How can this disingenuous pr*ck seriously say this with a straight face….

“Our heart is with a country that can look its kids and grandkids in the eye and say,

‘We are not leaving you with unsustainable debt; we are not going to practice intergenerational theft to sustain our own spending’”

**bleep** here’s how you can stop intergenerational theft One Term Tony……

Repeal your proposals to enslave a generation with high student debts

Enact policies to significantly improve housing affordability, say to 4x household earnings

Eliminate the generous tax benefits enriching the boomer generation – Super, CGT and negative gearing

Remove the generous pension entitlements for the asset and rich superannuants

Align Australia’s environmental policies with other more progressive nations.

That’s what you can do to eliminate Intergenerational Theft!!!!!!"

My opinion is that he hounded JG over her carbon tax comment & got voted in without really disclosing what his policies were, making a lot of promises that sounded good to get elected, that were blatant lies and no, I don't trust him

Live by the sword, die by the sword I reckon.
& it's ironic because he's doing what he accused the labor party of, only 20 times worse
He still acts like he's in opposition, probably because it was successful for him

to wilk, you left out : goon, cowboy, dumb, .....*yawn....it's pretty well obvious imo that he is sooooo wrong in every way!

There is no surer way to spot deceit than when a speaker refers to the ‘heart’......

I can solemnly say, with my hand on my heart….

Those are some pretty big swings on the polygraph needle!

what's the bet the Coalition beg MT to take the helm ?

P007: ".....not leaving anyone with unsustainable debt????!!!!

What about the 2 TRILLION in private housing debt/mortgages?!!"

What about differentiating between public and private sector debt? there is a teeny weeny difference!.

" Deloitte Access Economics says the budget will be in deficit in both 2012-13 and the election year of 2013-14, a projection it says will be confirmed in the forthcoming official mid-year update.

Such an outcome would open Labor to the charge that it had not delivered a surplus in government in more than 20 years."
