....... That CS posters also respect the following ACMA ruling.
Under Schedule 2 of the Broadcasting Services Act 1992, which is administered by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA), election advertising in the electronic media is subject to a 'blackout' from midnight on the Wednesday before polling day to the end of polling on the Saturday. This three-day blackout effectively provides a "cooling off" period in the lead up to polling day, during which political parties, candidates and others are no longer able to purchase time on television and radio to broadcast political advertising.
A 3 day berak once every 3 years is not too much to ask for 🙂
Yes it would be hard to do but lets see who can exercise some self control 🙂

IS: "The concern about what is posted from now on ,especially considering that we don't have the info from the Libs ...is .....i will leave out what I am thinking"
Try IS, taking some history into account!
"In the 2007 election, the ALP submitted its policies to Treasury late and then waited until the Friday before polling day to release its costings."
"An official costing of Labor's full suite of policies from the departments of Treasury and Finance will not be available to voters this weekend because it failed to submit all its policies in time. Finance was unable to cost 36 policies submitted."

MM, As a realist you would surely have to aknowledge that this is the 2013 Election not the 2007 Federal Election.
...so much negative focus,deflection, attack re THE budget and so much else ...has made me look into things of a political nature more than I did back then .Tony Abbott has drawn attention to the budget,made big promises (which have since changed....he won't as claimed bring it back to surplus ...it will be 'getting there') .Trust me isn't enough from an MP who says don't take everything I say as the Gospel truth unless it is carefully scripted ..
and lying to the ABC isn't the same as lying to the AEC as a political crime.
Lying to the ABC = Lying to us
