The ALP and Greens have just re-ignited the class wars

Don't get me wrong - I am all for it. But it could have been handled alot better

Toni Abbott ignited the class wars by continually dragging up the subject.
Now what is required is some cutting of the unaffordable bonuses like FTB and baby bonus. They are far too costly. These sorts of cash payouts must go so intelligent reforms such as disability insurance and dental care can be introduced. Such reforms will improve quality of life for the disadvantaged and help improve health care outcomes without handing out cash so that Gerry Harvey can sell more wide screens.

Phil, Matty said he isn't going into politics now.

Anyway, he stopped going to Greens meetings when he fell out with Toni Wright-Turner of the Hornsby Greens. I think it was an animal welfare issue.

Matty, what career will you be doing instead? Life after politics is really hard for most. Which course are you doing?

Medica? That a some kind of US health insurance company isn't it? I'm sure insurance sales can be lucrative but I didn't realise they could make that much. Good on you Mathew.

If they have cheap rates I'm sure Andrei would love to pick up a policy. Just ignore the sign about deadbeats on the way in, I'm sure it isn't aimed at you.

Have you thought of what to specialise in yet, Matty? They make you do a degree in medicine and then more post-grad study before they let you become a specialist.

You could make a lot more in politics, I reckon.

Is Today Tonight over already, old boy?

Or is it the anti-climax where they promise you a great story after the break and when it comes back on they tell you it's on tomorrow night?

I never understand how people can fall for it every single night.

Sooner or later Abbott is going to have to make some tough decisions..he cant be a popularist forever. Turnbull will run against Rudd at the next election

This is a very real possibility.

id be prepared to stake my house on that being totally ludicrous. Turnball is a better bet for the next leader of the LABOR party rather thant the libs and Rudd is hated by almost everyone in his party.

Exactly.
This has NOTHING
to do with helping the public health system.

It has EVERYTHING
to do with Labor's burning hatred of the middle income bracket.
