    An interesting analysis of where the Gillard govt has gone wrong

    Yet the economy is awash in foreign capital... go figure

    An interesting analysis of where the Gillard govt has gone wrong

    Yes. The decision on whether or not to claw back compensation from pensioners, drop the tax free threshold, throw big business into deep uncertainty and strip them of property rights, and by that time our biggest trading partners will be operating under carbon pricing schemes, we'll be linked up...

    An interesting analysis of where the Gillard govt has gone wrong

    I'd have to agree - not a fan of Rudd but the way the factional hatchet men so ruthlessly removed him is symptomatic with everything that's wrong with Labor.

    Precisely. That or a complete contempt for the intelligence of the electorate, which is entirely possible considering the lengths that the LNP have gone to in lying about the international state of play on this issue. Don't know which but both are equally as likely scenarios - ignorance and...

    No I didn't. You said they were planning to consider it - I said that they've been considering it since before 2009 (was put on hold in 2009 because of the GFC) and that the other day they (the Ministry of Finance) announced that they will be going ahead with various environmental taxes. What...

    There's an article on the previous page - they've been considering since before 2009 and have now announced a plan, although they haven't announced a timetable. But this is China we are talking about, t's not like they announce plans to take to elections, this sort of thing would have already...

    Greens distance themselves from ALP

    Greens won't win HoR seats this election, except maybe retain Melbourne (is a big ask but is not infeasible). However, your take on the ALP and their tenuous grip on anything approaching a left voter base is pretty much spot on. Although I hate this obsession with calling the Greens "the...

    No, they just don't want mining opened up in places like the Tarkine.

    Greens distance themselves from ALP

    Again, laying lie to Ice Wolf's claim that the Greens only ever voted for things they supported.

    Greens distance themselves from ALP

    Labor is soon going to be the party of perpetual opposition - through no fault but their own - the party is institutionally moribund, a plaything of factional bosses. It stands for nothing and represents nobody except for power for powers sake.

    Greens distance themselves from ALP

    That's a load of crap too. The Greens just want to see the money being made from the mining boom invested into the post mining boom future, so we're not left holding our dicks in our hands when the global growth in coal consumption begins to peak. And the vast majority of the profits you speak...

    Greens distance themselves from ALP

    Typical anti-Green meme with no basis in reality. The vast majority of the legislation Labor got through the house was passed with Greens support and out of the however many hundred bills that passed the house the Greens only outright rejected a small handful. Take marine parks for instance...
