Can this current government get any worse ?

The antics of Bishop yesterday where a disgrace and the return fire from Tony Burke gold.

You can't just have a go at the government here. Bloody hell Labour have been pretty piss poor with their own behavior as well on this issue.

So old mate Barnaby is a kiwi, we all knew he was a bit off. But still we have homeless people in the streets, a drug epidemic (e.g ice), power issues which have turned into a crisis, children still getting abused, manufacturing going to crap, massive debt, we are all fricken fat as crap and lazy and our schools are shithouse to name a few of our actual problems.

So when I say who gives a shit, what I mean is lets all get on with sorting out the actual problems.

but is it any wonder that they cant sort out any actual problems when so many of them (from several different parties) cant work out if they were even eligible to stand to be elected in the first place?

i mean, its a pretty black an white rule. surely it shouldnt be that hard for prospective candidates to do a tiny bit of digging into their own family tree ffs. ask mum and dad if they were born here, and if htey were born here. and if not, a quick google of their birth countrys rules on citizenship should show them if they need to renounce anything or not. and yet there have been how many now shown to have not even done a cursory check?

Jesus, its like they dont even pretend to follow the rules........

I don't think it was the ALP or the NZ Labour Party that made Barnaby Joyce a Kiwi citizen.

Tony Abbott admits to being passed out drunk the night the parliament voted on Rudd's bailout measures.

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/national/tony-abbott-admits-he-was-drunk-in-parliament-and-missed-crucial-gfc-bailout-vote/news-story/a74eff97b2b2079bd1e39f5b7635a94a

Don't get why he would admit to it, but he must have an ulterior motive. Anyway, it's another piece of evidence to go in his "I'm such a wanker" file.

Not sure but was surprised to see us past Victoria. The vics have there own energy issues on the horizon that could see there energy costs rival SA's.

SA has a few things going on at the moment. Oz minerals are opening up a new mine, bhp are starting to invest again in Olympic dam and SA Water is looking at expanding a large recycled scheme put North to encourage further growth in our agricultural industry.

This is good news amd welcome for the state with the Holden closure around the corner.

Yeah nicely rooted up. Amazingly all they had to do was to shut up and let the AFP do there thing. But nope not these guys, and christ I love the excuse for the tip off to the media. "I heard it from other media and the leak it to the media"

Solid work guys.
