Does Matty know the Kiwis have had a price on carbon for quite awhile?
I'd hate for him to get any nasty surprises

He knows, but he dismisses it by saying "NZ has an ETS, not a carbon tax."

Not sure if that's a typo or not.

True. It might have been a typo. Matty might have meant he's going to New South Wales.

Didnt Abbott vote against the ETS the Labor party had a mandate to introduce because he said it was evil and would destroy the country?
How is NZ going with an ETS Matty?

NZ have an ETS, at a much lower cost, it's not a carbon tax.

I am going tomorrow, and will be back in a year or so. Today will be my last day on here until then, unless I pp in for a brief cameo here and there, although that's not likely.

As said, I will be back, more determined and powerful than ever. You haven't seen the last of matty.

Congrats matty on turning a dictator's policy into what we all want. A choice, a voice.

Not me, Matty. I'll see you over there. I'm still trying to organise the tickets.

He might have meant "NZ has an ET".

But Abbott hates an ETS..he knifed Turnbull and blocked Labors even though they had a mandate to introduce one

Yes, but Mr Abbott might have thought they were talking about ET. Have you ever thought of that?

You leftists repulse me.

Matty could move to South Korea but they are thinking of copying Labors pricing of carbon so he might not be there very long.
Matty will be safe in Alabama..I doubt they will ever price carbon in the deep south

True. Matty may have to country-hop for a bit. However, his parents have a house in New Zealand.

Northern Territory too. Ryde, Hornsby, they have houses all over the place. I'm sure he'll find a country where his parents have a house. Matty, you see, does not receive benefits or stack shelves in Coles. He refuses to.

His next job will be as Liberal backbencher earning at least $180,000 a year, thank you very much.
