She's going to lose, and fall.

Further analysis reveals vital new information surrounding the fall, including comments like "that was a bit ugly there wasnt it" and a workman offering her some of his lunch out of instinctive sympathy

Contrary to popular belief that she simply walked into a low chair, it now emerges that some juice may have lubricated the ground surface. This fresh light has caused an uproar, with allegations of sabotage and media assassination rife

Voting not compulsory (barbarians)
Record turnout
Conservatives last in power 1999

I think I'll go third party.

Labour and Liberal have become completely useless and trying to emulate the U.S.

 

[katie tully]

Maybe you should vote Labor then.

Rudd's $6bn car plan
November 10, 2008 - 12:00PM
Mex Cooper

The Rudd Government will double its assistance to the ailing car industry to more than $6 billion over the next 13 years in a bid to retain thousands of jobs and valuable exports.​

Lol. What the fuck? $6 bn in taxes going to support a retarded Australian industry. Kevin Rudd is a socialist. And also a nationalist. A National Socialist.

 

[boris]

makes sense...if he makes them invest all of it into hybrids and small cars instead of commodores again

*lets hospital ceilings cave in*

*gives $6bn to auto industry*

*smokes cigar, job well done*

GM and Ford are hell stupid.

Jap manufactures have hybrids are small cars available now for no taxpayer cost.

 

[boris]

yes, yes they are.

Edit: they are fucking dumb cunts, it wont take much to use the already established technology to make a simple cheap hybrid.

Tell me do all you people actually feel clever and satisfied when you pick up on those?

Very much so.

I don't see why we give any money to the car industry. It is unproductive, and uncompetitive. Waste of money.

Knowing that the Australian Labor Party doesn't have a 'u' in Labor doesn't make me feel 'clever', it makes me feel like I know something that everyone knows.

So I pick up on it because I hate that others seem so incapable of noticing something that's been in place for 96 years - it takes incredible ignorance.

And agenda is the plural of an agendum yet I bet you don't pull people up all smug like when they say "an agenda."

and omg sheep is the plural of sheep and i bet you dont pull people up when they say sheeps?!*)$?

you know what we're getting at dickhead. obscure semantics isn't the same as blatantly refusing to acknowledge that the spelling of one of Australia's major political parties has been the same for 90odd years
