I don't think you are being fair. Tony Abbott also supports keeping the RET.

What do you think of that policy?

Sophie Mirrabella again showed the majority of coalition front benches have nothing more than slogans.
Everytime she was asked to explain coalition policy, and she was given several opportunites on different ones, she failed.
Stated the coalition press slogan/talking point and then moved on to the usual dirvel of ,corrupt,bad, incompetant etc etc Labor.
Not once did she even seem to know what the policy was in full,no details no nothing.

Now I don't know if the rest of are happy to elect your nations government on nothing more than "where not them" and hope the aren't as bad or even worse but I'm not.
Comparisions to the Howard Global economy and the Global economy now are not only unfair but misleading, so the trust us we had Howard/Costello does not wash, Howards front bench could articulate their ministerial policy and more broadly the party policy competently.


To prempt the predictable retort of "wait" you can say it until your blue in the face.
And everytime I will reply, not caring who 1st started it that I deserve better.

As a taxpayer  of 26 years I believe Tony has, as he says, started the campaign and he has put on record he will abolish certain taxes and bring in his own.(Sophie a levy is a tax, remember that argument after QLD?)
I want to know where's the money coming from, I don't care what Labor is or was doing.

Start answering questions with what your going to do not what Labor is or has.
I'm one of the few that wants to make an informed vote not just a nod and wink  "trust us"which is what I'm getting now

Bullshit.....Natural Gas can be used to deliver base load power and Geothermal has potential for the same base load capacity.....The problem is with the Liberal Parties refusal to debate the merits of their Direct Action policy!!!

Direct Action relies on storing carbon in soil to achieve 60 % of their emissions targets.....Storing carbon in soil is not counted towards the protocol.....Is experimental and will not achieve the reductions claimed by the Opposition.....How do Coalition voters justify these glaring failures in the Abbott Direct Action policy???


Any Liberal voters care to support Direct Action and explain how it will achieve 5% reduction in emissions by 2020 when its core element is not even counted towards targets......Anyone???

But you said yourself that the government has no control over price rises. So how do they compensate to 20cents?

More than what I voted for, MOTR

Which will come in, in dribs and drabs.  No big shock.

Sorry to say this, but the carbon tax is over. Its in, its small, and its not an election winner.
