Mummy and Daddy wear Politicians Stupidity.

So it was Mummy or Daddy didn’t tell me. I thought that excuse expired when SHANE Warne’s mummy was blamed. No we are not talking about children!Whenever you nominate for any candidacy you tick the box on Australian Citizenship, but when your caught out its, “I didn’t know”,and off to the courts keeping your leather seat and your six figure pay cheques until the decision falls.

That privilege does not apply to everyone as the same people championed the Centrelink payments recovery where the lower demographic lost their livelihood first, then had to prove their paperwork was in order. No appeal to courts for them, they were guilty until proven innocent by a public servant.

This is a clear case of the higher you are in the social standings bringing concessions that don’t apply to all Australians and it would be interesting to see if the recovery of public money will be pursued as vigorously as was the Centrelink people who did not tick their right box.

My Flag

I remember well when you were appointed as a flag monitor and were in charge of folding, carrying and unfurling and recovery of our nations prize possession on parade every morning at school. It was never allowed to touch the ground and treated with utmost respect and was a federal offence to in any way to desecrate our emblem.
Fast forward and today our people and politicians wrap themselves, dress themselves and even cover their faces and hide in a flag that our people gave up their lives for. It’s used as a weapon to divide our society not unite it, to profit by having it printed on your corn flake box or any retail item that seeks advantage by playing on nationalisms.

Our National Emblem should be sacred as it was before the mighty dollar hijacked it.

We are not any other country other than Australia and if others choose to betray their Fallen for dollars that’s their call, but the words Respect, Honour, Achievement, should be only criteria for being individually honoured with the privilege of wearing our flag.

For those who need something to show your national passion wear a boxing kangaroo or whatever but……

My flag is not for sale thanks, is yours?

As the Submarine goes under.

This morning started with the police dragging a VW for whatever reason outside the house… Angry Lights and all…
Good start, but it gets better. Our beloved Prime Minister backs out on a commitment to build subs that he gave to get party room support so he can keep his job One Day after he gave it. Now that’s worth a ticket for speeding surely!!!
So he survived the battle, but he has lost the war.. I am pleased really as this day to day speculation on his future by the media will only end in his dismissal by his party or his resignation. Their is no other way as 39 of his backbenchers are after is head.
The white ants are working under the paint.
The obvious choice is Turnbull, intelligent, statesmanlike, and articulate, everything Abbott is not. But that’s Tory logic. He does not come from the right boys club. Forget about the skills it the class culture..
Well Labor is also guilty of that as well, it’s called factions and they often overlook skill over ideology. My pet hate.
The sooner we get politicians who are dedicated to the electorate, the punters , and not the big end of town or the donors we will get better people in our service. Remember them, people who care about Joe Citizen.
They may not have been as polished, pompous, or poetic but they were practical. Rough around the edges but good honest people. Mainly.
Now the corporations that are their gods not the voters. They come a sad last after their own ambitions..
The fact is you have no Friends in Politics, just acquaintances, regardless of which side your on, and the punters are a distraction.

They Say History Repeats.. In more ways than one..

Recession is the Real Plan for Australia….

With the GMH Holden leaving Australia announcement we witnessed one of the most despicable events in our nations history as well as the commencement of Abbott to send Australia into a recession.
Strong words you may think but lets look at the facts.
Lets make it quite clear This government was installed with the blessing and support of Murdock. His ideology is nothing should be supported by the public, which explains hockey’s goading of GMH in question time that led to the GMH decision.
Abbotts continuance of the no support for Toyota only extends Murdock ideology.
We have also had the Business Council head declaring they should kill the National Disability scheme and that the basic wage is too high. What he actually is saying is our standard of living is far to high, that is those of us who supply labour to the big end of town. They are not making enough profit, it’s your fault.
This week we will see a slashing of public servants at a rate never seen in this countries history again pushing down living standards of those affected plus whatever social effecting policies they can destroy.
Get the picture? The flow on effect will do all the things the silver tails want as well as lower the Aussie dollar.
Make no mistake the silver tails will survive as they have the money and the implementation of social sanitising as already started in Queensland in preparation for the G8 will apply nationally.
After time this will reset the working standards as they will have to
accept standards or starve.
This fits perfectly with LNP ideology and Murdocks Australia, not that hard to work out is it??
Oh I forgot the NBN, the thing that would allow full competition into every household from providers will be scuttles as we cannot have anybody in competition with old Rupert can we….

Australia turning Hard Right…

I suppose you could say we have had a pretty good perspective of what we in Australia can expect from our Conservotive Governments

It is a well known fact that any government that takes over will magically find out that thing are never what they expected, and they have to do these “new” things to correct the bad things the former government has done. Yeah we heard it all before.

Well not quite, changing the right of association to talk to a person they the government rule as criminal even though they have NEVER been charged with a offence, up to 5 years in the slammer.

Any person involved in a group of more than 3 who they the government regard as could be part of a criminal Element without proof can be charged.

Wearing a tattoo or a accessory that displays what they regard as a criminal element, arrest and possible jail.

Yes this is Australia we are talking about, not Russia or Nazi Germany, a democracy allegedly.

Then we have a Federal Government not just backflipping on elected promises but totally lying to the electorate on campaign promises that cannot be denied. Politicians practicing nepotism, and caught thieving from the public funds.

The Public Watchdog Committee sacked after exposing a member lying. Yes this is Australia!!!

And they the born to rule class see nothing wrong with any of the above. They see themselves above the law and the only lawmaker that counts.

Total Power= Total Corruption.

And what recourse does the rest of the population do while all this is happening? They are moving now to take the voting rights away from the people who are under privaligned, destitute, or unable to have proof of who they are, including our own indigenous population.

This is not the Australia we voted for, this is not a country that says the lower class workers are getting paid too much so the upper crust can make more profits. Cutting health services, education and support for the aged while supporting the upper class handouts is not Australian Fair Go. It’s something a Right Wing Capitalist see as the normal where the entire world revolves around the dollar.

How often have we heard the pathetic simplistic paraphrase that the The Country is like the corner grocery shop? If it Fails to run at a profit it closes. What a load of CRAP. Only a total idiot would believe that, and expect a thinking person to accept that, but that’s the audience the LNP and other Right Wing supporters expect the masses to believe that their country is even similar to a corner store. But that’s about the mentality where social conscious is never a consideration.

Sadly I feel we are in very dangerous times in our nations history. A Prime Minister and the Queensland Premier who are totally out of their depth being governed by Murdock Press, Tea Party advisers from outside the country and a ultra right wing ideology that can only come from the Hitler era.

And Around We Go Again!

You would reckon about 6 months out from a election a government would have its act together but not on your sweet Nellie we have.
With those polls the politicians all knee jerk to showing a swing against the Government the Media yes Media is talking up a challenge. We have to ask why but I suppose if you don’t have much to report or your too lazy to get up off your bum to find real stories you just create it and report it as fact.
No, I am being a little too hypersensitive I suppose but there is some truth in the way they do “creative press”.
Personally, right now in Australian politics the people are not listening to Julia Gillard. That’s from a party member too. Kevin Rudd was the deposed Emperor by the factions and still has political credibility across the nation still regardless of what you are fed by the press. We have a right wing state government that has presumed a ideology that would be introduced across the nation if Abbott was to win government, however the rest of the nation does not know or realise the impact nationally if those policies were introduced nationally.
This nation would be on the streets within 6 months as they are in Europe, but they,as punters are usually vote without much thought, just what they get from the 60 second news grabs or what they hear at the lunch table at work.
Back to Rudd. He may not win the election if he has a run at the leadership but he will certainly change the political landscape, something the ALP need to do to sell their achievements, instead of defending the truth. Negativity sells to the ignorant.
The circus continues…..
