Pauline Hanson Takes Down Company Tax Cuts Plan

Pauline Hanson takes down company tax cuts plan   Smiley

THE Government’s plan to cut the corporate tax rate is effectively dead and buried after Pauline Hanson made a U-turn.
May 22, 2018
News.com.au


One Nation withdraws support for company tax cuts

THE Federal Government’s company tax cuts plan appears to have been dealt a fatal blow by One Nation’s Pauline Hanson.   Smiley

Ms Hanson, whose party has three Senate seats, says the Government has not been “upfront and honest” and has issued a long list of demands almost certain to sink the policy, The Australian reports.

“The whole fact is, if they’re serious about this, then start doing something about it now … This Government is talking about it six or eight years down the track. Well, that’s not good enough,” Ms Hanson said.

“The people in general don’t want it. It has not been well received. The Government has not been able to sell the package to the people and they haven’t cut through.”   

Among the Senator’s demands are greater help for pensioners, a crackdown on tax avoidance by multinational companies and lower power prices.

The Turnbull Government has been negotiating with crossbench senators since February to push through the legislation, which would see the tax rate for all Australian businesses cut from 30 to 25 per cent, but they needed at least nine votes to push it through.

Be it hanson or  the greens we are being dictated by the lowest common denominator and paying a severe price for it.

Friggen QLD wouldn't have a yet another incompetent labor government if it wasn't for the ginger idiot preferencing sitting members last.

The intention is to have parliament operate in this manner - we seen under Howard how dangerous it is to have one party able to do anything they like - the nation was treated with utter contempt and supplied with the worst type of government.

The whole idea of a parliamentary system is for it to be able to block bad legislation - this is bad legislation. No problem at all.

Correct.  They do not have a single political tactical neuron among them.

Another classic bigol logic failure. If a Labor government was in power, and sitting members were preferenced last, why wasn't Labor voted out?  Huh

Surely the Lefties can recognize a Senate feral pushing her own wheelbarrow ?

Patriotic Pauline is just setting up the bargaining to see what she can get out of it all.

Because the labor idiots will vote labor even if a party they have no intention of following tells them to vote against their party.

However a national idiot might vote against the LNP if a party they may be listening to gives them a nudge in that direction. It was even commented on in the QLD papers for fkk sake.

Are you a non-reader or a non-Queenslander.


Im thinking a just a fkkwit non-Queenslander who has difficulties reading trying his luck arguing about Queensland politics.  Grin Grin

Not my mates, I don't trust any of them, I just hate labor and the greens a lot more than the LNP and the ginger idiot.

They can all go fkk themselves with a field of cacti for all I care

It may just be brilliant politics by Pauline Hanson.

I know that sounds like an oxymoron (brilliant and politics)

She could get a bit of extra support from voters.
Not Green or Labscum, but Liberal voters.

You feeling OK WhatNot? It seems like you're actually pleased with Ms Hanson. You do know she is opposed to your views. Better have a nap.

You got Hanson in there as well / I have no idea what double oxymoron is when literally including one.

The Government will not agree to these outrageous demands....

The right wing of the party will not cop this from Senator Hanson who is demanding something the Government should have already dealt with???

Huh Huh Huh

I think this is magnificent KARMA

Taking down the party that sent her to tell on false charges.

The only way it could have been done better is if the base three that sent her there were still in power.

I'll bet she is having quite a laugh

Leading them on by the nose, right up to the last hurdle and then dropping the reigns

Good on ya Pauline

For all we know this could have been a deal done between the Libs and Hanson.

Never underestimate how devious politicians are.

Hanson gets a boost, the Libs can say to the right of the party,,, we tried. And the bottom line is better
