  10. The Australian median income is just under $80K and yet the #LNP and #AngusTaylor still argue for greater tax cuts for incomes much greater than $80K. The #LNP continue to push the lie of "lower, fairer taxes" when, in fact, the LNP have always widened the gap between those on lower incomes and higher incomes. We need, instead, to increase spending of #PublicEducation, #PublicHealth and #SocialSecurity. #Speers and the guests on #Insders seem to have a very poor perspective on the lives of those on lower incomes.

  15. CW: David Speers. Warning enough.

    Need I say more?
    Note also that there’s not a hint of evaluation of any of Keating’s criticisms, just a fact-free dismissal with the insult “spray”. Note as well that, despite all the excellent* journalism* and reporting* up until now, apparently it required criticism by Keating to, potentially, extract an explanation from the government for a $365b commitment, simply with a “spray”.

    Says a lot for the probing investigative skills of our author, or the MSM as a whole.

    What a pathetic excuse for the fourth estate.

    When a journalist chooses to use pejorative words like “spray” to describe factually-based criticism, it tells you much more about the journalist than the topic they claim to be reporting.

    Let’s just review short biographies of Keating and Speers:

    Keating:
    Served the Australian public for 27 years as MP, Treasurer, Deputy Prime Minister and Prime Minister

    Achievements included the Prices and Incomes Accord, the float of the Australian dollar, the elimination of tariffs, the deregulation of the financial sector, the first federal budget surplus, and reform of the taxation system, including the introduction of capital gains tax, fringe benefits tax, and dividend imputation.
    Introduced the landmark Native Title Act, compulsory superannuation and enterprise bargaining, created a national infrastructure development program, the APEC leaders' meeting, and promoted republicanism by establishing the Republic Advisory Committee.

    Awarded Euromoney Finance Minister of the Year
    Refused an AC, saying being PM was recognition enough
    Chair of International Advisory Committee of China Development Bank, including such lightweights as Henry Kissinger, Paul Volcker and a former head of the IMF

    Speers:
    Ex-Murdoch talking head
    Accused Keating of a “spray”

  25. @Sallyd I called the #dentist and asked if he had time to take all my teeth out without #anaesthesia during the #Speers #Dutton #bedwetting competition.

    He was doing someone else's at the same time for the same reason.

    I went out to the shed and smashed my left thumb with a #hammer.

    Much better.
