Tony Abbott's Support Page

A reminder of the debt that Australia has, while Labor can bury their heads and deny it exists the fact remains we have a huge problem with debt and sooner than later the chips will fall, no business, no state and no country can keep operating in the red, eventually those we own the money to will own us. Who will own us?
The state of Qld has debt of $80 billion dollars, Labor are saying they don’t think it’s that bad, Bill Shorten on Australia’s debt, there is no debt crisis, there is a crisis and we are in this situation because of Labor, no one else and the bottom line is Labor can’t fix this problem, their speciality is creating debt not fixing debt.

Perhaps you might like to post one that is different

 


No, I don't respond to your barking orders.

 

Do you really think there was only one mention of it in an election campaign?

Whoever wrote that twaddle should be embarrassed. "Two I've never heard of"  lol


It sets the tone in the first line by calling Triggs a prune.  

The post highlights, more than anything else, the low level of intelligence in the writer.

Debra, the contents of your post (747) are frightening.  I had no idea that this woman was so controlling, and don't understand why the other party members and government members have not revolted about the situation.

It's not easy for a Prime Minister to be constantly attacked by a rabble-rousing bunch of lefty has-beens and a rabid press, either.

Sorry about that and thanks for post more about it.  I was able to access the article, copy the bit and just posted the link.  Now cannot get there either?

 

It's terrifying that this idiot wanted to plunge us in an armed conflict on the other side of world; 3 500 of our men against 80 000 ISIL; good one!

Re: Tony Abbott's Support Page

Scraping to bottom of the barrel to find anything published that actually supports Abbott, has to resort to quoting dubious comments from facebook.

 

Abbott government's broken promises on infrastructure lead to big cost and no benefit to taxpayers

 

Five days before the last election,  Prime Minister Tony Abbott said, "I have given a commitment that we won't spend more than $100 million on any single infrastructure project without a published cost-benefit analysis."

 

It was a worthwhile promise. It should have been easy to keep. And it would have improved the budget bottom line in the short and long term.

 

... a month before the November 2014 Victorian state election, the Abbott government handed over $1 billion to Victoria for the $5.3 billion East West Link freeway. There was no published cost-benefit analysis.

There was no cost-benefit analysis because the project is a complete croc

 

...The four belly-ups were: the Cross City Tunnel and the Lane Cove tunnel, both in in Sydney, and the CLEM7 tunnel and Brisconnections Airport Link tunnel in Brisbane. The last cost investors $4.8 billion.

 

....Demanding sensible infrastructure spending with proper cost-benefit analysis should have been an easy promise to keep. But not for Tony Abbott.

Re: Tony Abbott's Support Page

here's a bit more from that same article Polks. if it is paywalled here, it is being passed around on twitter.  Well worth a read I tell ya!

 

Woman Surprised

 

 

http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/features/tony-abbott-in-command-but-is-peta-credlin-in-control/...

 

 

This is Abbott the strong man, “shirt-fronting” Vladimir Putin and destroying the Islamic State “death cult”. This is the Abbott who works best with the public — providing his only glimmers of polling success in a miserable 17 months. It is little surprise that this is where he is comfortable. Insiders say that, these days, Abbott sits for much of the day in his office in Parliament House pondering national security, Islamic State and reading Winston Churchill. He has 50 staff in his office but he insists on writing many of his speeches as Credlin, sitting in the office next door, works the phones, managing the detail.

Re: Tony Abbott's Support Page

The Australian - right wing bias

 

Tony Abbott and his staff are running a dysfunctional government

 

Tony Abbott in command, but is Peta Credlin in control

 

...Australia, he told the meeting, could take a lead with an invasion of northern Iraq using 3500 of our ground troops.

His powerful chief of staff, Peta Credlin, offered no resistance.

 

“Has he ever come up with something like this before?” one military official asked.

 

In fact, he had.

 

Four months earlier Paul Kelly had revealed in The Australian that following the shooting down of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17, Abbott wanted to put 1000 Australian troops into Ukraine. The Prime Minister had to be talked out of that idea.

 

This is Abbott the strong man, “shirt-fronting” Vladimir Putin and destroying the Islamic State “death cult”.

This is the Abbott who works best with the public — providing his only glimmers of polling success in a miserable 17 months.

She is, as Abbott himself has said, “the fiercest political warrior” he has ever worked with.

 

This is the Australian duumvirate, a new form of government in which Abbott and Credlin run the country. They are, in reality, co-prime ministers.

* but he insists on writing many of his speeches

 

Well that answers a lot of questions!!!

I wondered that as well.

 

I didn't see your quote about Abbott from the Australian before I posted the above article, which it comes from. I will post the whole article from The Australian in the Diary thread as it won't come up with the ink.
