Time for a Mini Budget?

[skippy]

No mantra, the Greens are conservatives just like the Libs.

Conservative in what way? Maybe cautious, but that's good.
But conservative?

[GeorgeH]

Conservative, as in a lot like the Libs.

Oh, they were a “progressive” figleaf—SSM etc.

BUT their actions not words:

1. Prevented Malaysian Solution and so the Greens ACTIONS led directly to the hell hole that is Manus Is

2. Agreed to remove the debt ceiling—what is wrong with a Treas being required to explain ever more borrowing?

3. Want to sign up to the stupid PPL, just a “progressive–left figleaf” wanting to reduce top rate to $50K

4. Their ACTIONS re action on climate change allowed monkey to easily remove the Carbon Price.

Etc. Not environmentalists at all. Lip services to it only.

They need to keep their inner city professionals happy after all.

The only thing on your list I agree with is they shouldn't have agreed to lift the debt ceiling without some sort of lefty investigation first, though I'm not sure that makes them conservative.
The Malaysian solution was as flawed as all the shit this government has dealt up.
The PPL is hardly conservative most conservatives hate it because it's so lefty.
The Greens are the only party that cares or even believes in climate change. Most conservatives think it's a lefty conspiracy.

Monk showing his political nous by claiming the Greens are conservative.

Every single day you prove what a complete and abject failure you are at everything.

There's conservative with a small 'c' and a big 'C'.

conservative with a small ‘c’

Said of someone who is conservative in outlook but does not necessarily vote for or support a Conservative party:
‘I think there are a good number of teachers who are instinctively conservative with a small c’

The Budget has gone down like a lead balloon.
The Treasurer seen chomping on cigars with fellow Liberal Mathias Cormann is just the wrong image.
Telling us the "Age of Entitlement is Over" well at least for the unemployed underclass is just hypocrisy.
And even though it may be true that really poor people don't own cars and probably don't travel far (unless they have to of course) so they won't be hit by the petrol excise as much... is just the wrong way of looking at it, especially when the right way clearly shows that on average poor people have a larger percentage of their earnings going on petrol even before they get hit by an increase.

The longer the government lingers on this budget the smellier it will get.

Is it time to cut and run and follow the calls for a mini budget.

Whats smellier than your preemptive needless fear mongering ramblings?

A Turnbull-Turncoat sweating like a paedophile at a Wiggles concert.

[GeorgeH]

Funny way they have of showing concern for climate change.

The carbon price would have been locked in by now except for Green meddling.

There is no C at all in the Greens.

I beg to differ IQS....

Bob Brown was and still is a large C communist cvnt!

Abbott had all good reason to dismiss Clive Palmers idiotic calls for a mini-budget.

For one, it would be an expense that would unnecessarily increase the expenditure.


Why throw good money after bad?

Bad Labor spend-thrifting?

Clive is only trying to undermine the same Liberal government that once rejected him.


Sour grapes!
