No because she's so old she might retire and then Barny would be PM.

That makes no sense, Bobby.

If Pauline Hanson does not become PM in 2028 will you leave this forum forever.

A simple yes or no will suffice.

Haven't you heard?

Voters the world over are turning away from mainstream political parties, because  neither side delivers what they say they will.

And the reason for that - which few recognize yet - is the failure of mainstream economists to deal with the globalization which has created winners and losers, and the demand for governments to lower taxes and balance their budgets which results in government austerity, while the rich get richer.

As prof Steve Keen observes re mainstream economics:

Why Private Debt, Not Government Spending, Drives Crises

Most people are told that government deficits are the danger. But the real problem is the private banking system, which creates most of the money and channels it into speculation, not productive activity.

Private banks create most of the money: When banks lend, they create deposits and loans at the same time. That means money is being created by the private sector, and since 2000, most of that new money has come from private credit creation rather than government spending.

Government deficits do the opposite of what people think: A deficit adds net financial assets to the private sector, while a surplus removes them. In this framework, government spending can support stability rather than destroy it.

Asset speculation is the real danger: A large share of private credit goes into houses, shares, and other assets rather than entrepreneurial investment. That is why the system creates bubbles instead of broad-based economic growth.

The system needs repair: The point is not that private money creation is always wrong, but that it is being used in ways that destabilize the economy. Steve Keen’s argument is that public spending, infrastructure, and productive investment should be given more room, not less.

Ok ...vote Albo out; but in a rotten economic system which doesn't differentiate between public money and private money, forcing everyone to argue over "fair" taxation, nothing will change.

We are still waiting for you to honour your bet with Bias and leave this forum forever when you lost your bet with him when Trump beat Hillary.

Greg, do you want to remain as complicit as Frank and Bobby in the current failing economic system?

See post #19.

Newly elected One Nation MP Jason Virgo breaks down in tears after confirming he is gay, thanks his Indonesian Muslim boyfriend, and declares: "I love migrants".




No electoral politics makes any difference.

He has no need to respond, he already told you, if you could read and comprehend. It's not a bet but an offer for you to lie and renege again.

"I'm not a gambling man but
you can offer to leave this forum if she becomes PM in 2028."
