If you hate
socialist policy and you vote for the opposite, you are allowed to be
scathing in your attack of the traitor who says one thing and then does
the socialist opposite when elected.



We vote for policy not party.



The
party with the best policies should always be your choice.



In our system
if our politicians lie to us our whole system fails.



This is socialist
big government policy being adopted be this government after they said
they would not do it………be very vocal.



However I do know what lying filth
the msm are and hope to god that the liberal party get a big enough scare
to come to it’s senses.



Write to your member.



 If Tony is as piss weak
in as I think he could be I think he needs to know he can’t have a quiet
life with the left at our expence. There will be consequences.

The
law needs to be enforced, whenever it is broken. All of us will recall
the horrific scenes of lawlessness on the streets of Melbourne in August
2012. The conduct itself was bad enough, but what made it even more
contemptible was that it involved a deliberate breach of orders of the
Supreme Court. It is hard to imagine a more flagrant display of contempt
for the rule of law.

The
old truism says that “Justice Delayed is Justice Denied”. While I am
conscious of the separation of the executive government from the
judiciary, I trust there were good and cogent reasons why it took nine
months for the Supreme Court to reach a decision that the CFMEU was
guilty of contempt of court. There are no doubt equally good and cogent
reasons why it is taking another nine months for the court to hand down
its penalty. Suffice to say I find it difficult to explain these delays
to those that may be minded to seek the protection of the law and
desperately need speedy resolution of their issues.

For
most of us, the notion of compliance with the law is simply taken as a
given. Unfortunately, however, the building industry contains a number
of participants who take a different approach. Their attitude is to be
as well-behaved as they feel they need to be. So when laws are not
effectively enforced there is a downward spiral of lawlessness.

In
light of the many revelations of unlawful conduct over the past month, I
have taken a close interest in the responses of the various bodies
responsible for upholding the range of laws that apply to the building
industry. In particular, I have noted the absence of Police involvement
in situations that one might ordinarily think would attract their
interest.

Police
leadership have claimed it is due to factors such as a lack of
resources or lack of evidence. Whatever the explanation is, I hope it is
not another factor on their part which is equally crucial - a lack of
will. It would be disturbing if crimes of corruption or violence that
would immediately be jumped on if they occurred anywhere else go
unpunished just because they occur on a building site. Nobody would want
to conclude that a mentality at the higher levels of Police to “keep
the peace” rather than “uphold the law” has in some way encouraged an
increase in such behaviour.

If
a person were to enter uninvited to a private residence, or a
commercial premises in another industry, block access to the site and
intimidate its occupants, that conduct would be reported to Police and
Police would act. But if that person happens to be a union
representative and the location is a building site, then that conduct is
considered to be different, only because it has the label of an
“industrial dispute”. I do not want to see a perverse culture
surrounding this industry which discourages victims to complain to
Police, or seeks ways to excuse the conduct of perpetrators.

I
dare say that if Police Command in Flinders Street were to suddenly
find its driveways blocked, its doors picketed and staff on site
threatened and abused, then those matters would be very quickly and
effectively dealt with. Those responsible would be left in no doubt that
such conduct is completely unacceptable. This is as it should be. The
problem is that every other Victorian workplace should be treated the
same way. As the CFMEU likes to say, “One Law For All”.

Abbott must block gillard's appointment to a UN scandal ridden quango

Michael Smith News

The role of the Chairman is as a fiduciary responsible for the
entity.   The Chairmanship is separate from the directors of the
Board/Committee.   The Chairman's appointment is not a rotational
selection from directors, rather the appointment seems to be made in its
own right.




I've included the Chairman's job description at the end of this piece.




Hedley Thomas reports 

It is understood Ms Gillard has confirmed her availability and that the Abbott government will not object.
However, the drive to lower costs and expenditures is expected to
determine whether Australia should continue to make significant
contributions.

The Abbott Government is duty-bound to object.   It must object.   It
has no choice, it has no latitude, no room for a judgement call or the
granting of some benefit arising from doubts about Ms Gillard's
integrity.   There is no doubt as to her suitability to act in a role
with responsibility for stewardship over some billions of dollars of
other people's money.   She carries a finding of having acted (as a
lawyer) in the furtherance of fraud.   She cannot escape it, it is
simply a fact of her life.   And her troubles extend beyond that.




Julia Eileen GILLARD is a suspect currently under investigation for
offences of Fraud, Conspiracy to Cheat and Defraud and Making and Using
False Instruments (forgery).   She further faces an investigation by the
Legal Services Board of Victoria for certain of her conduct as a lawyer
in the 1990s.




Tony Abbott is no doubt well advised about the contemporary zeitgeist
and its received wisdom which holds that Ms Gillard is somehow cocooned
from and free of guilty connections with her actions as a lawyer in The
AWU Scandal.   That notion is pure wishful thinking on Gillard's
part.   For others, like Mr Abbott whose first duty is to the nation,
not to his "niceness" ranking, the zeitgeist could better be described
as bullshit.   Irrelevant, misleading bullshit and unworthy of being
considered as a legitimate factor in an assessment of what's right for
Australia.

Gillard, this harridan, this schapelle corby of politics, this talentless vile parasite of a marxist carpetbagger, must be forced from public life. We are paying this disgusting bitch's ticket and in return she is deforming our political life, ripping us off, enabling further organised crime and generally being the stuttering clusterfuck of a miserable traitor that any thinking person knows she is.

Is Abbott running a government or a rabble? Is the new coalition government part of the same cosy club as the marxist regime they replaced? Is there really a political journalist class of would be rulers or is Abbott the leader of a genuinely ethical genuinely conservative government of Australia?

First he lets the ALPBC go after their treasonous behaviour, now the fix is in for gillard.

FUCK. THAT.

Here's Steve Karras who pops up as Acting Regional Manager for Christmas Island when the media needs massaging. - Michael Smith News

Here's Steve Karras who pops up as Acting Regional Manager for Christmas Island when the media needs massaging. - Michael Smith News

Steve Karras was at Christmas Island then too.   I also met the bloke who actually runs the show, his name recorded in my note book at the time as Joe Feld, Regional Manager, Christmas Island.
I can remember Steve Karras introducing himself as an acting manager for Christmas Island which seemed strange with the real one, Joe Feld there.  Steve Karras chaperoned us, showed us around, followed us everywhere and presented as part of the Christmas Island staff in the uniform worn at the detention centre.   Until under some pretty good questioning from a suspicious Peter Reith, Steve Karras admitted he was from the Department headquarters in Canberra and that he was a lawyer sent over for the purpose of "guiding" us around.

The 4 men in our group, me, Angry, Peter Reith and former Commonwealth Ombudsman Allen Asher were due to go to the main detention centre for a visit guided by Steve Karras when word filtered back from Canberra that Allen would not be permitted to enter.

Allen had been responsible for investigating complaints made by asylum seekers in his job as Commonwealth Ombudsman and was black-banned.  Steve Karras delivered the news.

Now that boat people and Christmas Island are featuring in government policy again, it's fascinating to see good old Steve Karras pop up again as the acting regional manager for Christmas Island (from Canberra).   Keep watching those frequent flyer points guys!

Government by the ALP is nothing more than a cuntocracy.

Our money, but Simon Crean’s holiday | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt Blog

OUTGOING Labor veteran and Rudd supporter Simon Crean and his wife have taken a taxpayer-funded parliamentary trip to Europe just months before he leaves his job.

It is understood the study trip could include Italian cooking lessons for the couple in Rome as well as a sojourn on the canals of Venice.

Department of Foreign Affairs sources have told The Australian that instructions were recently sent to Australia’s embassy in Rome to look into organising cooking classes for Mr Crean and his wife, Carole.

The former Labor leader is believed to be in the Swiss city of Geneva on a visit that will also take him to Rome, the fashion capital of Milan and the tourist mecca of Venice - all paid for by his parliamentary entitlements for overseas study travel.
