Tom, the new Liberal NSW state government made a special point of saying that despite the gaping big hole in the NSW budget, they will keep their promises.

They could be like Labor and use this as an excuse to back-out , (like with Gillard and her No carbon-tax pre-electoral promise)...but they have made it clear despite the appalling waste of funds ....the show will go on, they will keep their promises.


Typical of Labor to accuse the Libs of politicking , when it's clear, they don't even have to try, they have already won the election.

This is Labors way of saying, "We don't want to answer this question, or explain how we misplaced' $4.5 billion " So catty...so Labor... :roll:

Perhaps a royal/federal inquiry would jolt their memory?


Oh...I know...perhaps the hackers who hacked Gillards computer stole this too?

Rudd Swan didnt say the inflation genie was out of the bottle after taking government. The inflation figures can be meaured so that would have been easily dismissed.

Or like Gillard create a tax over a fictional issue based entirely on a scaremongering campaign to cover the blowout.

No they didn't.

So, do you want to try some other spin?

At least Howard had the decency to take his GST to the polls,(let people cast a vote on it) and didn't base it on one of the worlds greatest lies ever told...A Global Warmongering theory to fund UN autocracy and elitist aristocracy to ensure their own future prosperity trickles down their own families not those who weren't born Zionist European Jews.

8-) They still haven't justified why they plan to give the UN 10% of our nations carbon-tax revenue.

Why don't they be honest, call it what it is... a global domination tax!

Because it will drop the world's temperatures.
And as Tim Flannery has stated "f we cut emissions today, global temperatures are not likely to drop for about a thousand years."
So even with the world having zero emissions then there's be no noticeable impact for at least 1,000 years.
And remember the weather experts can't even predict acurately what tomorrow's weather will be. So give or take a few thousand years on Tim's comment.
Can you clarify that Mr Flannery?
"If the world as a whole cut all emissions tomorrow the average temperature of the planet is not going to drop in several hundred years, perhaps as much as a thousand years "


So basically Mr Flannery is saying that global warming and CO2 emissions is a load of rubbish.


One more thing, Tim advises that if Australia cuts their emissions by 5% as per the agenda of the ALP & Greens then the effect on the world's temperature will be (Mr Flannery)
" as I said it will be a very, very small increment."

Increment?
I thought that the objective was to decrease world temperatures, as afterall isn't that what global WARMING is in reference to?
