Will Rudd be returned

[Robina]

Gillard will be responsible for as big a change to the economy as Keating was.

We start our journey to an economy based on low carbon Jun next year. The mining tax will make small businesses more competitive. Huge reforms to health and education, plain packaging of cigarettes etc etc. The NBN will have advanced too much to stop it, we will have a totally 21st century communication system. The huge windback of middleclass welfare, tax reform, paid maternity and paternity leave for all

None of these changes will be undone.

In that light, if Labor were to lose in 2013, well, we have done our best for the economy and the progressive cause so too bad.

With a new Long Depression looming on the horizon the powerful economic team of Abbott/Hockey/Robb will soon have the economy in a huge mess.

Gillard will come to be seen as the most reformist and progressive PM in decades, when Howard is forgotten except for trivia quiz questions re PMs losing their seats.

Gillard will be responsible for as big a change to the economy as Keating was.

bwhahahahahahahahahaha

Keating= the recession we had to have
Gillard= the depression we had to have

You losers won't see govt again for decades...and just as well. Look at the fucking mess you fluffy bunnies leave all over the carpet when you get your filthy fucking snouts into the trough.

Guzzling fucking leeches..just like you Monk. No wonder you vote for them

[Robina]

The prosperity Australia enjoyed from the 90's is due to the Keating reforms to the economy.

The reforms drivien/implemented by Gillard & Swan will set the economy up for the next 20-30 years.

Those people losing their big houses, when did they buy those houses? During the H&C period. Just borrow up big, everything will be fine! things weren't fine. The deficits we face now, mostly due to Costello and his endless tax cuts for the rich.

But the econoimy will survice the Long Depression OK and will zoom once that is passed.

[IQS.RLOW]

Australia has done well in spite of Keating, not because of him and thanks to John Howard and Peter Costello, Australia never had it so good from 1996-2007. As soon as your feckless incompetants got in, they fuck everything up.

The next 20-30 years should be ok because your lot of useless fluffy bunnies will be out of office for that long

You will live to see me proved right.

Howard will be forgotten, Gillard will be long remembered for the massive reforms to the economy.

[IQS.RLOW]

Gillard is already going down as the most useless PM in Australias history

She will long be remembered for her trashing of Australia as will the rest of the useless liebor fluffy bunnies
