As it's more than 100 days now, it has been suggested that a new thread was needed. The current govt has been breaking promises and telling lies at a rate so fast it's hard to keep up.
This below is worrying, "independent" pffft, as if your own doctor is somehow what? biased, it's ridiculous. So far there is talk of only including people under a certain age 30-35, for now. Remember that if your injured in a car, injured at work or get ill, you too might need to go on the DSP. They have done a similar think in the UK with devastating consequences.
and this is the 2nd time recently where the Govt has referred to work as welfare???? So when you go to work tomorrow (or tuesday), just remember that's welfare.

Independent doctors could be called in to reassess disability pensioners, Federal Government says
The Federal Government is considering using independent doctors to examine disability pensioners and assess whether they should continue to receive payments.
Currently family doctors provide reports supporting claims for the Disability Support Pension (DSP).
But Social Services Minister Kevin Andrews is considering a measure that would see independent doctors reassess eligibility.
"We are concerned that where people can work, the best form of welfare is work," Mr Andrews said at a press conference.

"So in your opinion that makes it OK to photo shop someone's clothing, surroundings and people they are with-............."
Obviously, judging by the Tag-Team support. Even J2010 is persuaded by the Abbott copies !
I somehow doubt if those producing the image actually realise the idiom "we speak with one voice" is a compliment indicating a uniformity of purpose.
"So in your opinion that makes it OK to photo shop...." From page two of this cathartic thread over a year ago
Talking about uniformity of purpose. and photoshopping, let's not forget the halcyon days of the "Circus" and their well used idiom:
"What goes around, comes around"

what was your reaction when
polksalad posted this photo, debra?

Monman, so you think it is ok for a newspaper to show a photoshopped photo of Plibersek dressed in a hijab and posing with a couple of terrorists and supporting terror?
Trawling through old posts must make it all seem ok to you?

I think I said I knew it was photshopped- but again that is not putting a woman alongside terrorists is it??

I don't think it's OK Joono and as for that old photo shopped Margeret Thatcher image, I very much doubt that it was me who posted that- yet I get the meaning of it Tony- thatcherism - again it's not putting someone alongside a terrorist unless you think thatcher was a terrorist of course
