Gosh , do you remember this D9275:
Jan 2012
"Ms Gillard yesterday confirmed she will break her deal with independent Andrew Wilkie to introduce mandatory pre-commitment technology for poker machines by 2014 and pass the legislation by May."
Wilke: " it was the current Prime Minister Julia Gillard who reneged on her written agreement with me to introduce meaningful poker machine reform.”
Ahhhhhhh, the good old Circus days when even a written commitment by Poor Me was not honoured.

Oh Poor Monman, scraping the bottom of the barrel today.
If you recall that much you should also recall that is was a "watering down" of the poker machine agreement that broke the deal. It wasn't completely dumped. You might also recall that Wilkie did negotiate a deal with Gillard as opposed to abbott who proved he was not trustworthy enough to enter into a deal with.
Your use of the Poor Me label every day just confirms your sexist attitude everyday.
I do commend you on your daily efforts to convince people that abbott is somehow better than Julia Gillard, who's name you can't even bring yourself to use.

I agree with you NW: "........ true to form trys to grab the limelight by publicly declaring he wont support passage of the Budget......."
FN it is a meaningless statement when you consider that : "The opposition said it would not block supply and to do so would be ''anti-democratic''.
"Independent MP Andrew Wilkie wants MPs to block the budget and force another election."
Finally FN, leaving aside Wilkie's waffle, are you referring to blocking supply or blocking budget bills?.

The answer is in the video recording in the OP, press play to find out.
where did you get the quote re the "force another election"? That's not in the thread, not is it the point of the speech.

"Oh Poor Monman, scraping the bottom of the barrel today."
Well of course, that is where I look first when debating ALP/pink topics, it just happens it was where I found Poor Me's commitment to a written policy agreement with Wilkie!
"We don't have the numbers to deliver the package he has asked for," said Health Minister Plibersek, overlooking the inconvenient truth that Gillard signed up to the policy in exchange for Wilkie backing her into government."
"You might also recall that Wilkie did negotiate a deal with Gillard as opposed to abbott who proved he was not trustworthy enough to enter into a deal with." ???? I would suggest a written agreement that is not honoured is a few orders of magnitude worse than a verbal one.
Actually having reneged, Poor Me offered a crumb to Wilkie in the form of An ACT trial of precommitment technology for poker machines. But, but she allowed the clubs to vote on the issue:
"The Canberra pokies trial appears sunk after Canberra clubs on Thursday voted against participating in the trial until after the federal election."
" It is dead and has been an expensive "thought bubble", the federal opposition says."
D9275: "I was commenting on the current situation as is everyone else. Not really interested in what happened in the past" I do not blame you when historical memoirs like the above from Poor Me fit so comfortably at the bottom of her Machiavellian political barrel.
