Will Labor Reverse The Senate Reform?
Mar 18^th, 2016 at 8:46pm

Abbott went to the last election with negative commitments and won.

If the senate reform, that hands more power to the voters, if labor hates it so much, should they go to the next election with a commitment to dump it and hand power back to Labor factional leaders.

Or is all the labor squealing like stuff pigs just for the TV cameras?

I am sure they will get around to addressing it but their first order of business is to get the country moving forward again after languishing completely directionless in the wilderness for the last 3 years and instead of talking about a 21st century economy , actually building one.

Then once that is taken care of and things are moving forward again we can have a forensic look in to Libtards business dealings, after ICACs finding this is of the upmost importance that we romper stomp the head of Liberal corruption once and for all.

Much for granted ... that Shorten has the charisma to win the support of voters and so win office.
Or do you think the civil war waging within the coalition will hand labor government without it doing anything?

The Libs are policy paralysed , Labor only need to hammer home that nothing with any substance has occurred in 3 years and reiterate to the public that Libs current monetary policy or( lack there of )and performance even remotely suggesting any superior economic management is quite simply, complete crap. Australia will be hearing lots of Tony Burke type attacks on the Libs over the next few months along with a policy direction that outlines where Labor intends to take the country as opposed to the Libs who will just spend all their time attacking Labors policy , Keating will be doing his part behind the scenes

, grab the popcorn , sit back and enjoy , 3 word slogans wont work this time .

a friend of mine (staunch lib) was today trying to tell me that the libs are biding their time and have a whole raft of policies ready to go. They just don't want to announce them before the election because they don't want to give labor the chance to tear them apart ....

I told him he was dreaming Cheesy

Reply #13 - Mar 19^th, 2016 at 7:51am Labor actually support the senate changes but chose to oppose it for political reasons. Very poor form and makes them look like a party that values politics over good policy. not news to anyone of course

You are being wilfully misleading on Labor's position on the Senate voting reforms. Labor has voted against the reforms because they did not include reforms to make voting below the line easier. This has been explained to you before, so why are you lying?
