Ok i havnt a lot of time this morning

But just quickly - so ive got this right

You are arguing that the liberals have done more to combat tax evasion than labor by cutting the numbers of the people that audit tax evasion?

Just want to try and understand if ive really dialed in what you are trying to say here?
No I called you out on being incorrect about the cuts based on the reference you gave.

I also noted that the Libs have actually increased the amount of money brought in unlike the always promising and never delivering ALP.

As ive mentioned in previous pages i have several references

I just like quoting that one first as its good bait for folk like you then you post the second reference which shows the ACTUAL effect on the tax department a couple of years down the track as opposed to the original reference which was PROJECTED.

<<<Complaints to the Australian Taxation Office have increased by more than 40 per cent in three years, coming amid thousands of job losses and serious IT system failures which saw staff sent home and taxpayers left without key services in December.

The federal opposition has linked the 3347 job cuts by the Turnbull and Abbott governments since July 2014 to the sharp rise in complaint numbers, totalling 34,323 in the 2015-16 financial year>>>

Note - multinationals such as apple - paid even less tax in the 2018 fy

- Invites cameras in to his Church to take photos of him praying and shaking hands, despite calling a truce on campaigning over Easter.
- Photos published in the paper with gloating headlines.
- People criticise it.
- Melts down at "keyboard warrior lefties".

Yep, sounds about right.
There are heaps of loser keyboard warrior lefties, for sure.

But Morrison shouldn't have invited cameras in in the first place, especially considering he had called the truce. Then again, I'm not sure the loopy evangelical photos would have done him any benefit with any sort of voter...so maybe there wasn't any malicious intent in it.

A huge and obvious blunder.

Calls a truce for Easter
Immediately violates it by inviting the media to his mega-church
Behaves in a manner that will make most Australians quite uncomfortable
Complains that people who reacted that way are 'politicisng his religion' and 'keyboard warriors'

Dumb, dumb, dumb. I'm quite pleased that Labor have recognised the wisdom of 'never interrupt your enemy while he is making a mistake' as well.

Morrison’s Pentecostal rally, is that the Hewson moment they’ve been longing for, when hewson had street rallies chanting ‘ten years is long enough, labor’s got to go’


ThT reminds me of the adverts last time with the trade saying ?’you know, I reckon this mob deserve another go’

So they’ve had a go? How was it?

United Pentecostal Dress Rules for Women

"The basic reason for modesty of dress is to subdue the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye, and the pride of life," the UPCI document continues. "The exposed body tends to arouse improper thoughts in both wearer and onlooker."
To avoid such problems, United Pentecostal churches set these modesty guidelines for women:
• No slacks "because they immodestly reveal the feminine contours of upper leg, thigh, and hip"
• No makeup
• No jewelry except wedding ring and wristwatch
• No low necklines
• No sleeveless dresses or shirts
• No very tight or very thin clothes
• No dress hemlines at or above the knee
• No sleeves above the elbow
• Uncut hair
The UPCI says balance is appropriate for women:
"She is not so old-fashioned as to look like a monstrosity, but she is deliberately methodical in choosing clothing that will dignify her womanhood without provoking the stares of the opposite sex."

So that’s why the Morrison family wardrobe screams op shop.

Thinking back to liberal outrage over Gillard family ‘how do we look to foreign heads of state?’

The fact the he has been pitching to seniors since the campaign started tells us where he thinks it's headed.

I think we need to fight neoliberalism full stop. It's eating our society. Everyone who contributes to society should be justly rewarded for their work (that is, with decent wages) and vulnerable Australians should be genuinely looked after.
Why are we so hell bent on dehumanise our country? Examples are;

1/ We would prefer to mechanise anything rather than have humans do it.
2/ We will move any and every job off shore if it saves a dollar. Everything from manufacturing jobs to legal services and everything in between.
3/ We would rather import skills from overseas because it is much easier than educate and train our own kids.

Explains why Barnaby never joined this particular church

What the hell is wrong with just a little bit of lust now and again? Lustful thoughts are not in the least bit improper.

This comes from blanket capitalism with minimal regulation. The United States is an example - the biggest economy in the world that renders half of it's people on or below the poverty line. That is a failed system.

The IPA would dearly love us to copy it. Which is why, regardless of your leanings, Australians need to protect our Medicare, our decent social security and our living minimum wage. There are things that are broken within our system, but these 3 things are fundamental.

Spot on. I went to a Catholic school and as a young adult maintained infrequent associations with the church (no longer associated at all) and the amount of secret affairs and swinging amongst married churchgoers would blow your mind.

Years and years ago I had acquaintance with some lighthouse type church folk and did a couple of social occasions. in the end I said I’m just passing through nice to meet you all ( they were nice young people, as was I) I got the distinct impression if I became part of the scene serious nooky would follow, and I wasn’t getting much at the time
