Gaffes and general idiocy sell more papers than intelligent reasoned thought

You mean like the time when Keating was treasurer but didn't put in his tax return. Now there's real intelligence for you.

At least Keating's money wasn't in the bloody Cayman Islands.

Is that a crime?

Because not filling out a tax return for a few years is.

If it isn't, it bloody-well should be.

It isn't a crime to declare your financial interests in another country, it is a crime to not submit your tax returns.

So one of our PM is an un-convicted criminal and one isn't.

Don't quote me on this, but when I chose not to bother doing Tax Returns for 3 or 4 years, I eventually got called in for a chat with some chaps at the Tax Office.
They asked if I would pretty please do my tax, because they do not like loose ends, and because they owed me money, rather than I owing them, I had not broken any laws, and it was just a formality.

Now I do not know if what they said was true at the time, in the 1970's, or ever, or they were just being nice, because I was not being a jerk to them, and just went to sort it out as easily as possible.
So long and short was, you owe them, bad.
They owe you, forget about it. (Donnie Brasco?)

Former prime ministers Paul Keating and Tony Abbott have clashed over what Prince Charles may or may not think about Australia ditching the monarchy.
On the eve of the Commonwealth Games Mr Keating has claimed the heir to the British throne supports Australia becoming a republic and would welcome not having to "pretend" one day to be the country's head of state.
Former prime minister Paul Keating says he believes Prince Charles supports Australia becoming a republic.

But the former Labor leader's comments have angered monarchist Mr Abbott, who has suggested it's not true.
"Prince Charles would just want to do his duty and he shouldn't be verballed by an ex-PM," the former Liberal prime minister and now right-wing backbencher posted on Twitter.
Another senior right-wing Liberal, Eric Abetz, also rounded on Mr Keating, accusing him of mounting "self-serving and egotistical" arguments for a republic.

"Mr Keating's musings clearly have no basis in fact and are just a sad feature of the latest Republican push," the Tasmanian senator said in a statement.
Mr Keating advocated for a republic when he led the country and used an opinion piece in London's The Sunday Times to again make that argument.

I imagine he was busy lining up the country for unprecedented growth via Labor party reform

So what you are saying is that if you are a multi-millionaire and have better things to do than completing your tax returns on time, it's all well and good.

Is it one rule for the rich or do rich socialist only get special treatment that the rest of us do not?
