I'm not saying it wasn't a misstep (it certainly was), but the reaction is completely disproportionate.

Re: Federal election 2022
It's not even just Murdoch anymore. While being stuck at Melbourne airport last night, they had ABC News running on the screens, and it had pretty much a permanent position in the ticker. Never mind the Liberal's empty beer cans.Nort wrote: ↑Tue Apr 12, 2022 10:39 amAll glory be to Murdoch.Nathan wrote: ↑Tue Apr 12, 2022 10:30 amI think it's more concerning the different standards that Albanese and Morrison are being held to.

Re: Federal election 2022
I don’t accept your argument.
John Howard did make a mistake with the cash rate, but he then lost the 2007 election !
Albanese made a small mistake yesterday, but it shows that he’s not very smart.
To make an analogy, if you were to go to a CEO or director of a public company such as ANZ or NAB,
I am sure they would be able to tell you the current share price.

Re: Federal election 2022
Mate, Albanese was there 2 weeks ago on budget night when Frydenberg said that unemployment is 4%.
What was Albanese doing.....sleeping ? playing pocket pinball ?
Re: Federal election 2022
Man if you're this worked up over this I can't wait to see how much you critique Morrison for not being able to remember the price of bread, the price of milk, conversations with Dutton about being Duttons deputy in a spill, no recollections about putting forward plans as immigration minister to detain people awaiting bridging visas, saying he can't recall a single instance of lying in public life, saying he isn't part of the church group he has been photographed in, saying he barely knows the man he namedropped in his maiden speech to parliament and tried to get an invite to the White House with him, needed to talk to Jenny to realise that rape was bad because what if it had happened to his girls, made public false allegations of a sexual harassment case against a media organization to deflect from his own mistakes, and everything else he's done over the past 3 years as PM.
Look forward to it.

Never mind what the Liberal National coalition can recall when they are out of touch with the reality of everyday Australians.Nort wrote: ↑Tue Apr 12, 2022 3:56 pmMan if you're this worked up over this I can't wait to see how much you critique Morrison for not being able to remember the price of bread, the price of milk, conversations with Dutton about being Duttons deputy in a spill, no recollections about putting forward plans as immigration minister to detain people awaiting bridging visas, saying he can't recall a single instance of lying in public life, saying he isn't part of the church group he has been photographed in, saying he barely knows the man he namedropped in his maiden speech to parliament and tried to get an invite to the White House with him, needed to talk to Jenny to realise that rape was bad because what if it had happened to his girls, made public false allegations of a sexual harassment case against a media organization to deflect from his own mistakes, and everything else he's done over the past 3 years as PM.

Apparently the UAP and PHON are running candidates in all 153 seats, so that's our alternative governments to the alternative government. Not much of a choice between Labor, Liberal, United Australia and One Nation.
Re: Federal election 2022
It's really not though. The official cash rate is extremely important given it's expected to rise in the next few months and cause even more financial strain on millions of Australians. I agree that the unemployment rate criticism is more of a beat up, given how easily manipulated those figures can be.

It's not that he's unintelligent, it just shows that he's prone to gaffes when not reading from a script. Expect him to turn into Australia's version of Joe Biden if he gets elected and has to face the media almost daily.ghs wrote: ↑Tue Apr 12, 2022 12:43 pmI don’t accept your argument.

Re: Federal election 2022
"If you're not voting Greens, you're actually a horrible person" - Something a Greens voter would say.
Re: Federal election 2022
Greens voter here, according to the poll there are quite a few of us who have been in this thread, and I haven't seen any posts like that in this thread?
At least we can all agree it's good that no-one seems to be supporting Palmers Vanity Party yet.
Re: Federal election 2022
You don't seem like a Greens voter...
I am more impressed nobody in South Australia votes for the National party. They treat us South Aussies like crap and it was a wonder they even tried to be in the State election.
