I'm just saying that making an early statement that there's a hole in the outgoing govts budget is standard practice for covering your arse later when you're seen as incompetent.


What would be one of the first things any new government would do?

to check the state of affairs for themself.
When in opposition they would have been given an indication of what the ALP were trying to sell them.
They themselves would have already earmarked certain areas to check for themself when they had the chance.
They had the chance since Saturday and theyve found those areas of concern to be validated.

Surprisingly he himself has admitted he doesnt really know yet wishes to dismiss what those who do know.



Interestingly the ALP have not come out to dispute the findings.

Wonder why.

Probably still in shock and licking their wounds.

It is a silly, unnecessary stunt. Doesn’t bode well for NSW and especially its public servants.

There's a hole in my budget,
Juliar, Juliar
There's a hole in my budget,
too big to ignore

Then fix it, Keneally
Keneally, Keneally
Then fix it, Keneally
Then tax'em some more

With what shall I fix it,
Juliar, Juliar
With what shall I fix it,
and tax'em some more

With strawman, Keneally,
Keneally, Keneally
With strawman, Keneally
They bought it before

Duet by:-- Gillard and keneally.

If the NSW ALP books have been based upon the same economic/accounting assumptions as the Federal ALP books then the $4.5 billion loss will be even greater.

It's a given... thats why they moved heaven and earth to stay in power and get this carbon-tax through, how else had they planned to restore a surplus by 2014?

So when Gillard said "There will be no carbon tax under a government I lead".. she always knew in order to win, she'd have to hand over the balance of power to the greens, this and would use this as a cop-out, and a tool to funnel tax dollars into her socialist commie global orgs .. she'll move overseas probably, use it to suplament her investment portfolio, RuddsHow old is he? Bout the same age... so what have we done? We have payed twice the $$$ for two incompetent PM's, both of which wont be kicking the bucket any time soon....and will probably live till 100 on a $600,000 pa parliamentary pension.
Gillard:-- $600 000 times 50 (years) = $30 000 000

Rudd:--$600 000 times 50 = $ 30 000 000 Not to mention what they were paid whilst in the top job, this coupled with the advantages of knowing what to invest in, insider trading info etc.... their set up for life.

Long after they have left for communist China, or America, the UN...Berlin, wherever..., they will be laughing at us all the way to the bank.


Rudd and Gillard entered federal politics together, they exit at around the same time too.



, how ol:--d is she? 50? Imagine retiring at 50 on a PM's pention.
commie
